Salvage of infarcted myocardium by angiogenic action of basic fibroblast growth factor.
Atsuko Yanagisawa-Miwa,Yasumi Uchida,Fumitaka Nakamura,Takanobu Tomaru,Hideaki Kido,Takeshi Kamijo,Tsuneaki Sugimoto,Kazuhiko Kaji,Masanori Utsuyama,Chieri Kurashima,Hideki Ito +10 more
TL;DR: In a canine experimental myocardial infarct model, intracoronary injection of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) improved cardiac systolic function and reducedinfarct size, suggesting the angiogenic action of bFGF might lead to a reduction in infarCT size.

Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index (CAVI) as a Novel Indicator of Arterial Stiffness: Theory, Evidence and Perspectives
Kohji Shirai,Noriyuki Hiruta,Mingquiang Song,Takumi Kurosu,Jun Suzuki,Takanobu Tomaru,Yoh Miyashita,Atsuto Saiki,Mao Takahashi,Kenji Suzuki,Masanobu Takata +10 more
TL;DR: CAVI increases with age and in many arteriosclerotic diseases, and is related to many coronary risk factors, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and smoking.

Prediction of acute coronary syndromes by percutaneous coronary angioscopy in patients with stable angina
Yasumi Uchida,Fumitaka Nakamura,Takanobu Tomaru,Toshihiro Morita,Tomomitsu Oshima,Toshihiko Sasaki,Satoru Morizuki,Junichi Hirose +7 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that acute coronary syndromes occur frequently and in a short time in patients with glistening yellow plaques and that angioscopy but not angiography is feasible for prediction of the syndrome.

Angiogenic therapy of acute myocardial infarction by intrapericardial injection of basic fibroblast growth factor and heparin sulfate: An experimental study
Yasumi Uchida,Atsuko Yanagisawa-Miwa,Fumitaka Nakamura,Koichiro Yamada,Takanobu Tomaru,Kenjiro Kimura,Toshihiro Morita +6 more
TL;DR: The transcatheter intrapericardial injection of bFGF plus HS caused angiogenesis and myocardial salvage, which might bring about a selective therapeutic and preventive modality of myocardials infarcted irrespective of coronary anatomy and contraindications for coronary interventions and surgery.

Stroke and cardio-ankle vascular stiffness index
Jun Suzuki,Ryuji Sakakibara,Takanobu Tomaru,Fuyuki Tateno,Masahiko Kishi,Emina Ogawa,Takumi Kurosu,Kohji Shirai +7 more
TL;DR: Compared with healthy control subjects, CAVI is statistically greater in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular diseases, particularly with WML, large artery atherosclerosis, and small vessel occlusion, but not in Patients with TIA.
