Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the edge vascular response in patients treated with second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) after 3 months of aerobic exercise intervention. Thirty-two patients with significant coronary artery disease underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with DES implantation prior to randomization to aerobic interval training (AIT, 14 patients) versus moderate continuous training (MCT, 18 patients). Plaque changes were assessed using grayscale and radiofrequency intravascular ultrasound at baseline and follow-up. The main endpoints were changes in plaque burden and necrotic core content in the 5-mm proximal and distal stent edges. Plaque burden in the distal stent edges decreased significantly in both groups (AIT: - 3.3%; MCT: - 0.4%, p = 0.01 for both), and more in the AIT group (p = 0.048). Necrotic core content decreased significantly in the distal stent edges in both groups (- 2.1 mm3 in AIT, - 0.3 mm3 in MCT, p = 0.01 for both), and more in the AIT group (p = 0.03). There were no significant changes in proximal stent edges or in in-stent geometry at follow-up. In this small study of patients treated with DES implantation, 3 months of aerobic exercise training demonstrated de...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
