Early and late outcomes after open ascending aortic surgery: 47-year experience in a single centre
The aims of the study are to describe the long-term survival of patients undergoing primary open ascending aortic surgery and to portray the evolution of aortic surgery during six decades in a single centre. Included were ...
[F-18]FDG Accumulation in Early Coronary Atherosclerotic Lesions in Pigs
<p>
We found increased uptake of [F-18]FDG in coronary atherosclerotic lesions in a pig model. However, uptake in these early stage lesions was not detectable with in vivo PET imaging. Further studies are needed to clarify ...
Change in abdominal, but not femoral subcutaneous fat CT-radiodensity is associated with improved metabolic profile after bariatric surgery
Background and aims: Computed tomography (CT)-derived adipose tissue radiodensity represents a potential noninvasive surrogate marker for lipid deposition and obesity-related metabolic disease risk. We studied the effects ...
Basal and cold-induced fatty acid uptake of human brown adipose tissue is impaired in obesity
<p>atty acids (FA) are important substrates for brown adipose tissue (BAT)
metabolism, however, it remains unclear whether there exists a
difference in FA metabolism of BAT between lean and obese healthy
humans. In ...
Pegylated and liposomal doxorubicin is associated with high mortality and causes limited cardiotoxicity in mice
<p>Objective: We wanted to determine the impact of different doses of a pegylated and liposomal formulation of the cardiotoxic drug doxorubicin on cardiac function, fibrosis and survival in mice. The drug causes myocardial ...
Increased Expression and Altered Cellular Localization of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-Like 1 (FGFRL1) Are Associated with Prostate Cancer Progression
Fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) 1-4 are involved in prostate cancer (PCa) regulation, but the role of FGFR-like 1 (FGFRL1) in PCa is unclear. FGFRL1 expression was studied by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry of ...
Brain glucose uptake is associated with endogenous glucose production in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery and predicts metabolic outcome at follow-up
<p>Aims: To investigate further the finding that insulin enhances brain
glucose uptake (BGU) in obese but not in lean people by combining BGU
with measures of endogenous glucose production (EGP), and to explore the
...
Accuracy of echocardiographic area-length method in chronic myocardial infarction: comparison with cardiac CT in pigs
Background: We evaluated echocardiographic area-length methods to measure left ventricle (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (EF) in parasternal short axis views in comparison with cardiac computed tomography (CT) in pigs ...
Volumetric Bone Mineral Density in Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty in Postmenopausal Women: Effects on Primary Femoral Stem Stability and Clinical Recovery
<p>Abstract</p><p>Background<br>In cementless total hip arthroplasty, femoral stems should preferably not migrate at all postoperatively. This goal is difficult to achieve in postmenopausal women with impaired bone quality. ...
Intracranial aneurysm is predicted by abdominal aortic calcification index: A retrospective case-control study
<p>Background and aims</p><p>Patients with intracranial aneurysms (IA) have excess mortality for cardiovascular diseases, but little is known on whether atherosclerotic manifestations and IA coexist. We investigated abdominal ...
