Meta-Analysis of Single-Cell RNA-Seq Data Reveals the Mechanism of Formation and Heterogeneity of Tertiary Lymphoid Organ in Vascular Disease.

Background: Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) are ectopic lymphoid organs developed in nonlymphoid tissues with chronic inflammation, but little is known about their existence in different types of vascular diseases and the mechanism that mediated their development.

Methods: To take advantage of single-cell RNA sequencing techniques, we integrated 28 single-cell RNA sequencing data sets containing 5 vascular disease models (atherosclerosis, abdominal aortic aneurysm, intimal hyperplasia, isograft, and allograft) to explore TLOs existence and environment supporting its growth systematically. We also searched Medline, Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science from inception to January 2022 for published histological images of vascular remodeling for histological evidence to support TLO genesis.

The effects of aurone on the yellowing of fresh-cut water chestnuts.

Yellowing is the main reason for deterioration of edible quality of fresh cut water chestnuts (FCWCs). The mechanism of aurone inhibiting the yellowing of FCWCs was studied. FCWCs were treated with aurone (0.

Effect of Early Pharmacologic Cardioversion vs. Non-early Cardioversion in the Patients With Recent-Onset Atrial Fibrillation Within 4-Week Follow-Up Period: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.

Background: Whether early pharmacologic cardioversion is necessary for recent-onset atrial fibrillation is still controversial. Current meta-analyses were limited to evaluating the effects within 24 h without sufficient considering longer follow-up outcomes. We aimed to compare the effect of early pharmacologic cardioversion and non-early cardioversion in patients with recent-onset atrial fibrillation within 4-weeks of follow-up.

Development and validation of a novel risk score to predict 5-year mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction in China: a retrospective study.

Background: The disease burden from ischaemic heart disease remains heavy in the Chinese population. Traditional risk scores for estimating long-term mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have been developed without sufficiently considering advances in interventional procedures and medication. The goal of this study was to develop a risk score comprising clinical parameters and intervention advances at hospital admission to assess 5-year mortality in AMI patients in a Chinese population.

Effects of mechanical circulatory support devices in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing stent implantation: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

Objective: The survival benefit of using mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is still controversial. It is necessary to explore the impact on clinical outcomes of MCS in patients with AMI undergoing stenting.

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Dihydroxyeicosatrienoic Acid, a Metabolite of Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acids Upregulates Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression Through Transcription: Mechanism of Vascular Endothelial Function Protection.

The present study aimed to investigate the impacts and underlying mechanisms of 14,15-DHETs on eNOS and vascular endothelial functions. Bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) were treated with various concentrations of 14, 15-DHET. The expressions of eNOS protein and mRNA were observed at different time points.
