Neural substrates of subcortical aphasia in subacute stroke: Voxel-based lesion symptom mapping study.

Dec 21, 2020

Subcortical aphasia develops as a result of damage to subcortical brain areas without loss of cortical functions. Although earlier voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping (VLSM) studies have shown possible...

Circadian influence on inflammatory response during cardiovascular disease.

Dec 21, 2020

Circadian rhythms follow a 24 h day and night cycle, regulate vital physiological processes, and are especially relevant to cardiovascular growth, renewal, repair, and remodeling. A recent flurry of ...

Short-term versus long-term dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-eluting stent implantation in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Dec 21, 2020

The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is under controversial. The aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to evalua...

Sclerouvectomy plus intraoperative ophthalmic brachytherapy for iris-ciliary body melanomas.

Dec 21, 2020

Partial lamellar sclerouvectomy was designed more than 30 years ago by Jerry and Carol Shields, in order to remove melanomas that involved the ciliary body and/or the choroid, while leaving intact the...

Physical interaction of tropomyosin 3 and STIM1 regulates vascular smooth muscle contractility and contributes to hypertension.

Dec 21, 2020

Tropomyosin (TPM), an actin-binding protein widely expressed across different cell types, is primarily involved in cellular contractile processes. We investigated whether TPM3 physically and functiona...

Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid markedly alleviates liver fibrosis and inflammation in mice.

Dec 21, 2020

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease in the Western world, and it is closely associated to obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. Medicinal cannabis...

Catestatin peptide of chromogranin A as a potential new target for several risk factors management in the course of metabolic syndrome.

Dec 21, 2020

Obesity, lipodystrophy, diabetes, and hypertension collectively constitute the main features of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS), together with insulin resistance (IR), which is considered as a defining elem...

Transcranial approach for pituitary adenomas - An evaluation of surgical approaches over two decades and factors influencing peri-operative morbidity.

Dec 21, 2020

Transcranial surgery(TCS) for pituitary adenoma(PA) is mostly reserved for lesions with widespread extensions. We sought to analyse the intraoperative challenges, morbidity and the factors associated ...

Natural compounds as anti-atherogenic agents: Clinical evidence for improved cardiovascular outcomes.

Dec 21, 2020

Atherosclerosis, a chronic progressive inflammatory condition characterized by the formation of lipid-laden lesions in arterial walls, is associated with substantial morbidity (including ischaemic str...

Salidroside simultaneously reduces de novo lipogenesis and cholesterol biosynthesis to attenuate atherosclerosis in mice.

Dec 21, 2020

Salidroside is a kind of phenylethanoid glycoside and widespread in the plants from Rhodiola and Ligustrum species. Our previous study has reported that salidroside can prevent atherosclerosis progres...

Ginkgolide B treatment regulated intestinal flora to improve high-fat diet induced atherosclerosis in ApoE mice.

Dec 21, 2020

Intestinal flora plays a major role in cardiovascular diseases, like atherosclerosis (AS). Ginkgolide B (GB), a natural substance extracted from Ginkgo biloba L., is recently acknowledged as a potenti...
