| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: Exploring the Frontiers of Regenerative Cardiovascular Medicine Joshua D. Hutcheson, Julie A. Phillippi, Elena Aikawa, 2019-05-15 This Research Topic celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first heart transplant performed in December of 1967 in Cape Town, South Africa. Cardiovascular researchers met in South Africa in December 2017 to commemorate this event, presenting an opportune time to reflect on the achievements of applied cardiovascular research and highlight forthcoming technology developments that will shape the future of cardiovascular medicine. The clinical breakthrough in 1967 offered hope to many patients suffering with cardiac complications, and these life-saving surgeries continue to have a tremendous impact. Tissue shortages, surgical risks, and complications due to improper host-transplant tissue interactions, however, limit the utility of heart transplants to the most severe cases of cardiac morbidity. Recent advances have yielded mechanistic insight into the factors that control cardiovascular tissue maintenance and remodeling. The field of regenerative medicine seeks to control these factors to promote in situ tissue regeneration or engineered tissue replacement. These exciting new technologies could lead to a renaissance in the treatment of many cardiovascular diseases, just as the realization of heart transplantation 50 years ago. In this Research Topic, researchers and clinicians from regenerative medicine and applied cardiovascular biology provide literature reviews and original manuscripts to demonstrate the trajectory of cardiovascular medicine. The contributions vertically integrate advances by clinicians, engineers, and basic scientists, all researching similar topics from different angles and with complementary perspectives. Taken together, these contributions demonstrate the process of applied cardiovascular research from basic science discoveries to implementation in clinical practice. |

| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: Aortic Diseases Involving Visceral Artery: Clinical Therapeutic Management and Related Basic Research Xiangjiu Ding, Wayne Zhang , Mian Wang, 2024-07-23 Aortic diseases (mainly including aortic dissection and aneurysm) are common but life-threatening entities. With development of surgical and endovascular techniques, treatment outcomes have been improved gradually. However, a lot of problems still require to be resolved. Aortic diseases in the region of visceral arteries are difficult to treat, especially for aortic dissection, which is usually associated with the narrow true lumen. Conventional open repair is associated with high trauma and high morbidity and mortality. Endovascular intervention has been applied in the last decade. Fenestration technique, chimney technique, and branched stent-grafts have been used for aortic aneurysms. For aortic dissection, management in the region of the visceral arteries is more complicated, and more techniques have been described. Besides these three methods, exclusion of the re-entry by vascular occluder, road block strategy, and candy-plug technique are also reported. However, these endovascular techniques vary in characteristics, procedures, and outcomes. There is no consensus on the optimal treatment for these complicated entities. |
| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: Aortic Valve Transcatheter Intervention Marco Zimarino, Ron Waksman, Ignacio J. Amat-Santos, Corrado Tamburino, 2021-02-23 Aortic Valve Transcatheter Intervention Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common heart valve anomaly, with a largely age-dependent prevalence, a calculated annual incidence rate in the range of 4-5% in general populations and up to 6% in patients aged 75 years and over. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) was previously the only option available to patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis. After the first-in-human transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was performed by Alain Cribier in 2002, the treatment strategy for patients with symptomatic AS has been revolutionized. Since then, TAVI has grown exponentially, as a result of accruing evidence demonstrating safety and efficacy, and reduced invasiveness compared with SAVR. TAVI devices are continuously expanding to include several valve design options. As this strategy is continuously evolving to treat younger patients and lower-risk populations, aside from the long-term durability of the valve systems, procedural safety will become the focus of newer-generation devices. This book is a practical handbook devoted to the optimization of TAVI procedures, through a focused containment of complications. Through an integrated evaluation of the clinical status, imaging techniques and laboratory findings, the authors provide readers with clear messages on preventive and therapeutic recommendations. |

| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: The Metric Tide James Wilsdon, 2016-01-20 ‘Represents the culmination of an 18-month-long project that aims to be the definitive review of this important topic. Accompanied by a scholarly literature review, some new analysis, and a wealth of evidence and insight... the report is a tour de force; a once-in-a-generation opportunity to take stock.’ – Dr Steven Hill, Head of Policy, HEFCE, LSE Impact of Social Sciences Blog ‘A must-read if you are interested in having a deeper understanding of research culture, management issues and the range of information we have on this field. It should be disseminated and discussed within institutions, disciplines and other sites of research collaboration.’ – Dr Meera Sabaratnam, Lecturer in International Relations at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, LSE Impact of Social Sciences Blog Metrics evoke a mixed reaction from the research community. A commitment to using data and evidence to inform decisions makes many of us sympathetic, even enthusiastic, about the prospect of granular, real-time analysis of our own activities. Yet we only have to look around us at the blunt use of metrics to be reminded of the pitfalls. Metrics hold real power: they are constitutive of values, identities and livelihoods. How to exercise that power to positive ends is the focus of this book. Using extensive evidence-gathering, analysis and consultation, the authors take a thorough look at potential uses and limitations of research metrics and indicators. They explore the use of metrics across different disciplines, assess their potential contribution to the development of research excellence and impact and consider the changing ways in which universities are using quantitative indicators in their management systems. Finally, they consider the negative or unintended effects of metrics on various aspects of research culture. Including an updated introduction from James Wilsdon, the book proposes a framework for responsible metrics and makes a series of targeted recommendations to show how responsible metrics can be applied in research management, by funders, and in the next cycle of the Research Excellence Framework. The metric tide is certainly rising. Unlike King Canute, we have the agency and opportunity – and in this book, a serious body of evidence – to influence how it washes through higher education and research. |

| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: Inflammation and Heart Surgery Shahzad Raja, Nandor Marczin , Umberto Benedetto, 2024-09-30 Cardiac Surgery remains amongst the most intensive and at-risk surgical procedures. Various factors, such as surgical trauma, and the extracorporeal circulation, induce complex systemic inflammatory responses as well as organ-specific perioperative morbidity and mortality. Despite advancements in surgical techniques and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) technologies over the previous decades, Cardiac Surgery continues to be associated with these significantly fatal complications. For example, analysis of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons database of > 600,000 isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) procedures identified major postoperative complications including stroke, renal failure, re-operations, and prolonged ventilation in 10.3% patients undergoing this procedure, with a failure to rescue rate in 16-22% of cases. |

| frontiers cardiovascular medicine impact factor: Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System - Latest Trends Takaaki Senbonmatsu, Makoto Katoh, 2025-04-16 Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System - Latest Trends consists of five chapters related to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). RAAS is a crucial hormonal system that regulates blood pressure, blood volume, and sodium (salt) balance in the body. When the kidneys detect abnormalities in hemodynamics, such as a drop in blood pressure or sodium concentration, renin is secreted, leading to the production of angiotensin II, which is a physiologically active substance. Angiotensin II causes cell proliferation, vasoconstriction, and sodium reabsorption through the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1 receptor), helping maintain hemodynamic balance. Additionally, the AT1 receptor stimulates aldosterone secretion from the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone regulates sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion in the kidneys. Excessive activity of this system can lead to cardiovascular diseases. To address this, RAAS inhibitors such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi), angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARB), direct renin inhibitors (DRI), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), also known as aldosterone blockers, are used to treat hypertension, heart failure, and arteriosclerosis. These therapies can be considered the 20th-century RAAS inhibitors. In the 21st century, the discovery of the (pro)renin receptor added a new dimension to the RAAS. The physiological activation mechanism following angiotensin II has also been elucidated. While research on the (pro)renin receptor as a RAAS-independent factor with organ-crossing functions and a potential therapeutic target continues, there is still no consensus on its role as part of the RAAS. Further research is needed to explore the physiological activation mechanism following angiotensin II. This book collects the latest research on RAAS, including studies on new indicators related to angiotensin-converting enzyme, and provides valuable information on its functions. |
