Abstract: Intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) is thought to be capable of identifying a vulnerable, rupture-prone plaque based on the presence of a thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA). Moreover, recent studies have reported that OCT may be able… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Arginase inhibition increases plasma citrulline, citrulline / ornithine ratio (C / O), and reduces plasma ornithine, ornithine / arginine ratio (O / A) in animal model of myocardial infarction (MI). OBJECTIVES We hypothesize that… read more here.

Abstract: Background Previous studies suggest that higher plasma concentrations of several lipid molecules are associated with higher lipid core burden index (LCBI) near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) imaging. The aim of this study was to investigate whether… read more here.
