The present study was conducted to assess the effect of chromium (Cr) administration on glucose tolerance in insulin-dependent diabetes that accompanies hypertension. Four rat groups were used: stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) and normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) with and
Hyperglycemia is common after acute stroke and is associated with a worse outcome of stroke. Thus, a better understanding of stress hyperglycemia is helpful to the prevention and therapeutic treatment of stroke. Chromium is an essential nutrient required for optimal insulin activity and normal
To demonstrate the noninferiority of the BiOSS LIM C sirolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium bifurcation dedicated stent against the Xience stent regarding patients oriented composite endpoint (POCE) at 12 months among patients with left main coronary artery disease Cobalt chromium stents (CCS) are seldom compared to drug-eluting stents (DES) for coronary intervention in published clinical trials. We evaluated the daily usage patterns of CCS in comparison to DES unconstrained by eligibility criteria. We compared consecutive patients (n = 303) with de novo
The content of elements in rainwater is an indirect indicator of its occurrence in air dust. This is sometimes referred to as rain fallout and is investigated in applied environmental pollution monitoring schemes. The annual content of elements in rainwater may be recognized as good index for
BACKGROUND
The identification of constituents of fine particulate matter (PM
2.5) air pollution that had key impacts of ischemic
stroke (the predominant subtype of
stroke) is important to understand the underlying biological mechanisms and develop air pollution control
Background: Long-term outcomes in patients at high bleeding risk (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a drug-eluting stent are unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate long-term adverse events in HBR patients undergoing PCI with cobalt-chromium (CoCr)
OBJECTIVE
To prospectively compare the impact of ultrathin-strut cobalt-chromium (Cro-Co) bare metal stent (BMS) versus thin-strut stainless steel (SS) BMS on clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR).
BACKGROUND
Stent characteristics are an important determinant of restenosis. Thinner
Intervention trials have shown the beneficial effects of chromium supplementation in type 2 diabetes (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus). This study investigated the effects of chromium picolinate on elderly diabetic patients within a rehabilitation program. Thirty-nine diabetic subjects,
There has been no previous prospective study evaluating dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration shorter than 6 months after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation. STOPDAPT trial is a prospective multi-center single-arm study evaluating 3-month DAPT duration after
The aortic valve is a semilunar valve with three leaflets, which lies at the junction of left ventricle and aorta. It allows unidirectional blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta and the rest of the body. Because of the highly complex and sophisticated cellular and molecular functions, the
BACKGROUND
Durable polymers used for first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) potentially contribute to persistent inflammation and late DES thrombosis. We report the first in human experience with the rapamycin-eluting biodegradable polymer coated cobalt-chromium FIREHAWK stent with abluminal
Metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings have become popular due to a major advantage over metal-on-polymer bearings for total hip arthroplasty in that the larger femoral head and hydrodynamic lubrication of the former reduce the rate of wear. However, concerns remain regarding adverse reactions to metal
OBJECTIVE
There is a strong link between antiphospholipid antibodies and stroke. The mechanism of action of antiphospholipid antibodies is unknown. Most theories of pathogenesis center around platelet or endothelial cell dysfunction. Our aim was to determine if there were immunoglobulins in the sera
Thromboembolism (TE) occurs in about 20% of patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease, and platelet survival time in these patients has correlated with TE. In patients with mitral valve prolapse, TE appears to occur very infrequently. Platelet survival (autologous labeling with chromium-51) was
