Background: The prognosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is closely linked to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). In contrast to primary percutaneous coronary ...

Peer ReviewDownload a summary of the editorial decision process including editorial decision letters, reviewer comments and author responses to feedback. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of ...

There remains, therefore, an unmet need to discover novel therapeutic strategies capable of preventing myocardial reperfusion injury and reducing MI size, so as to preserve LV systolic function and ...

However, restoration of blood flow causes further cardiac damage, the so-called reperfusion injury (RI). The mechanisms of myocardial RI are not fully understood; thus, it is possible that thrombus ...

The importance of circadian factors in managing patients is poorly understood. We present two retrospective cohort studies showing that lungs reperfused between 4 and 8 AM have a higher incidence (OR ...

Objective: Myocardial edema is an early manifestation of chemotherapy-related myocardial injury. In this study, we used cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) T2 mapping to assess myocardial edema and its ...

The thrombogenicity of VWF is limited by ADAMTS13. Interestingly, ADAMTS13 activity was strongly reduced (2-fold) locally in the reperfused brain, while it remained normal systemically. These results ...

17 18 Notably, collaterals circulation represents the compensatory potential of the cerebral vasculature during ischemic events, while post-procedural hemodynamics indicate the status of reperfused ...

A previously developed automatic TICI score (autoTICI), which quantifies the ratio of reperfused pixels after EVT, demonstrates good correlation with eTICI. Objective To evaluate the autoTICI model in ...
