Background: Vascular health is increasingly recognized for its roles in the pathogenesis and progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The objective of this study was to investigate effects of exercise training, dose, and cardiorespiratory fitne...

Synchrotron-radiation-computed tomography (SRCT) allows more accurate calcified plaque and coronary stenosis assessment as a result of its superior spatial resolution; however, typical micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) systems have even higher res...

Serum calcium levels are known to influence vascular function. Cells infected with human T-cell leukemia virus 1 (HTLV-1) impact serum calcium levels and also affect the endothelium. Since a damaged endothelium causes functional atherosclerosis, seru...

Bisphosphonates remain a first-line treatment for osteoporosis. The most-widely used is zoledronate, which is well tolerated by most patients, but may rarely cause acute inflammatory reactions, which resemble those of large vessel vasculitis (LVV). W...

Cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is a global health concern, and early detection is crucial for effective intervention. This case report presents a 31-year-old male patient with multiple cardiac risk factors who underwent positron emission tomography/co...

Background: Previous studies suggest variability in the management of cardiogenic shock (CS). Methods: An anonymous survey was sent to Spanish hospitals. Results: We obtained 50 answers, mainly from cardiologists (36–72%). The annual average of...

Metalloproteinases (MPs) belong to the superfamily of zinc endopeptidases, which are called metzincins. Three families of MPs have been studied in healthy and diseased conditions in humans. The first study on MPs was published in 1962, and following...

Numerous studies have investigated in-stent restenosis (ISR) predictors in first-generation drug-eluting stents (DESs), but only a few have investigated second-generation DESs. We aimed to investigate the ISR predictors following a successful DES imp...

Motor imagery (MI) and action observation (AO) techniques are two movement representation strategies that are widely used in multiple fields of study. MI is defined as the cognitive skill that involves the representation of an action, internally, wit...
