Association between major adverse cardiovascular events and pentraxin-3 in patients who have undergone coronary computed tomography angiography: from the FU-CCTA registry
Chronic vasculitis is considered to be associated with future cardiovascular events. Here, we present major cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCT...

Implicit Gradients Based Conservative Numerical Scheme for Compressible Flows
This paper introduces a novel approach to compute the numerical fluxes at the cell boundaries for a cell-centered conservative numerical scheme. Explicit gradients used in deriving the reconstruction polynomia...

Highly Sensitive Low-Energy Laser Sensing Based on Sweep Pulse Excitation for Bolt Loosening Diagnosis
The hammering method used by inspectors is generally applied to inspection of looseness of bolted parts. This method entails active sensing through the input of an excitation signal produced by the inspectors,...

Importance of measurement of the diameter of the distal radial artery in a distal radial approach from the anatomical snuffbox before coronary catheterization
Coronary catheterization by a distal radial approach at the site of the anatomical snuffbox has recently been reported to be both safe and useful. No data are available on the diameter of the distal radial art...

Impact of the triglyceride level on coronary plaque components in female patients with coronary artery disease treated with statins
Several studies have reported that elevated triglyceride (TG) levels may be more strongly associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in females than in males. We examined gender differe...

Association between discordance of LDL-C and non-HDL-C and clinical outcomes in patients with stent implantation: from the FU-Registry
It is not yet clear whether the discordance of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) predicts the follow-up clinical outcome (major adverse cardio...

A Hyperbolic Approach for Dissipative Magnetohydrodynamics
The hyperbolic method initially introduced by Nishikawa (J Comput Phys 227:315–352, 2007, [1]) for solving the diffusion equation is extended to a two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model. The approach is ...

Open AccessBK-UM in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer or peritoneal cancer: a first-in-human phase-I study
BK-UM (CRM197) is a mutant form of diphtheria toxin and a specific inhibitor of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF). We assessed the safety, pharmacokinetics, recommended dose, ...

Significance of the percentage of cholesterol efflux capacity and total cholesterol efflux capacity in patients with or without coronary artery disease
We hypothesized that cholesterol efflux capacity is more useful than the lipid profile as a marker of the presence and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). Therefore, we investigated the associations...

Plasma Bonding of Plastic Films and Applications
This article reviews “plasma bonding” of plastic films. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films can be bonded directly by oxygen plasma irradiation and heat-press at low temperatures of 100–160 °C. Functional g...

Atomic Processes of Pulsed Laser Deposition During Growth of Alkaline Earth Oxide Thin Films
Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is one of the most powerful techniques to deposit thin films of multielemental materials such as electronic functional oxides. The PLD is a quite simple and convenient technique, ...

Association between cholesterol efflux capacity and coronary restenosis after successful stent implantation
The measurement of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality could be useful for identifying patients who have an increased risk of coronary restenosis after stent implantation. In the present study, we elu...

Association between smoking habits and severity of coronary stenosis as assessed by coronary computed tomography angiography
Smoking promotes arteriosclerosis and is one of the most important coronary risk factors. However, few studies have investigated the association between smoking habits and the severity of coronary stenosis as ...

A relative difference in systolic blood pressure between arms by synchronal measurement and conventional cardiovascular risk factors are associated with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis
It is not known the relationships between a difference in systolic blood pressure (SBP) or diastolic BP (DBP) between arms by synchronal measurement and the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD), and betwe...

Contrast between innovator drug- and generic drug-induced renal dysfunction on coronary angiography (CONTRAST study)
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has gained increasing attention in clinical practice, particularly during coronary angiography (CAG). However, some “bioequivalent” generic (GE) drugs are less effective than...
