Variability of the Plasma Lipidome and Subclinical Coronary Atherosclerosis.

Article Synopsis
- This study explored how the variability of 284 different lipids in the blood over time relates to asymptomatic coronary atherosclerosis in 83 healthy individuals aged 41-75.
- Researchers found that most lipids showed more variability between different people than within the same person over time.
- Specific lipids, particularly certain glycerides and ceramides, were significantly linked to coronary plaque types and risks, suggesting that monitoring lipid variability could be important for assessing heart disease risk.
Coronary manifestations of Kawasaki Disease in computed tomography coronary angiography.
J Cardiovasc Comput Tomogr
November 2018
Coronary arteritis in Kawasaki disease can lead to serious complications such myocardial infarction and sudden death. The identification of coronary manifestations with a method that is minimally invasive and of low radiation exposure is therefore important in paediatric patients with Kawasaki disease. Coronary CT angiography can be an attractive alternative to invasive coronary angiography.

Magnetic resonance imaging scans of a healthy male subject were obtained for model reconstruction of the upper airway and the soft palate. The fluid domain consists of nasal cavity, nasopharynx and oropharynx.
