The term myocardial bridge (MB) describes the surprisingly common situation in which part of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), running in epicardial adipose tissue, is covered by a bridge of myocardial tissue. The presence of an MB may influence arterial tissue through the alterati

Acute thrombotic occlusion of an infarct-related artery is frequently found in patients presenting with myocardial infarction. In a patient with acute inferior wall myocardial infarction complicated by continuous chest pain and hemodynamic instability, emergency diagnostic coronary arteriography dem
## BACKGROUND. Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is one of several small neuropeptides that affect cancer growth. A lipophilic VIP analog, stearyl-Nle 17 -neurotensin 6-11 VIP 7-28 (SNH) that inhibited lung carcinoma growth has been described previously. The experiments performed were clonogenic
## Abstract Background: Late percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of a totally occluded infarctβrelated artery (IRA) in stable patients is currently not recommended based on the lack of clear clinical benefits in randomized controlled trials. We sought to perform a systematic review and metaβan
