Background: Microvascular resistance (MR) has prognostic value in acute and chronic coronary syndromes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), however anatomic and physiologic determinants of the relative changes of MR and its association to target vessel failure (TVF) has not been investigated previously. This study aims to evaluate the association between changes in MR and TVF.
Methods: This is a sub-study of the Inclusive Invasive Physiological Assessment in Angina Syndromes (ILIAS) registry which is a global multi-centre initiative pooling lesion-level coronary pressure and flow data.
Results: Paired pre-post PCI haemodynamic data were available in n = 295 vessels out of n = 828 PCI treated patients and of these paired data on MR was present in n = 155 vessels. Vessels were divided according to increase vs. decrease % in microvascular resistance following PCI (ΔMR % ≤ 0 vs. ΔMR > 0%). Decreased microvascular resistance ΔMR % ≤ 0 occurred in vessels with lower pre-PCI fractional flow reserve (0.67 ± 0.15 vs. 0.72 ± 0.09 p = 0.051), coronary flow reserve (1.9 ± 0.8 vs. 2.6 ± 1.8 p < 0.0001) and higher hyperemic microvascular resistance (2.76 ± 1.3 vs. 1.62 ± 0.74 p = 0.001) and index of microvascular resistance (24.4 IQ (13.8) vs. 15. 8 IQ (13.2) p = 0.004). There was no difference in angiographic parameters between ΔMR % ≤ 0 vs. ΔMR > 0%. In a cox regression model ΔMR % > 0 was associated with increased rate of TVF (hazard ratio 95% CI 3.6 [1.2; 10.3] p = 0.018).
Conclusion: Increased MR post-PCI was associated with lesions of less severe hemodynamic influence at baseline and higher rates of TVF at follow-up.

Background: Depression is a severe mental disorder commonly co-morbid with diabetes, but it remains to elucidate whether depression is associated with the risks of a wide range of vascular complications in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and whether metabolic biomarkers may mediate this pathway.
Methods: We conducted this prospective analysis among the participants of the UK Biobank who were diagnosed with T2DM and free of vascular complications at baseline between March 13, 2006 and September 30, 2010. Major depressive disorder (MDD) was ascertained according to the hospital admission records and self-report of doctor-diagnosed conditions, while the presence of depressive symptoms was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2.

Background: Several methods for measuring IMR derived from angiography have been developed. AngioIMR is a novel method for the assessment of angiography-derived IMR with no requirement for a wire and hyperemia. The prognostic value of AngioIMR is unknown in STEMI patients.

Multiple myeloma (MM), a cancer of bone marrow plasma cells, is the second-most common hematological malignancy. However, despite immunotherapies like chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells, relapse is nearly universal. The bone marrow (BM) microenvironment influences how MM cells survive, proliferate, and resist treatment.

Background: Protein expression analysis of isolated brain microvessels provides valuable insights into the function of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). However, isolation of brain microvessels from human brain tissue, particularly in small quantities, poses significant challenges. This study presents a method for isolating brain microvessels from a small amount of frozen human brain tissue, adapting techniques from an established mouse brain capillary isolation method.

Normal shear stress produced by blood flow is sensed by the vascular endothelium and required for maintenance of the homeostatic functions of the endothelium in systemic conduit and resistance vessels. Many critical illnesses are characterised by periods of abnormally reduced or absent shear stress in the lung (e.g.
