C-Reactive Protein and Cerebral Small-Vessel Disease An Opportunity to Reassess Small-Vessel Disease Physiopathology?

The burden of stroke goes well beyond those cases that are clinically recognized. Imaging techniques of the brain have revealed a remarkably high prevalence of white matter lesions (WML) and silent brain lacunar infarcts (SBLI). In the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute–sponsored Cardiovascular Health Study, SBLI 3 mm were found in 31% of all subjects.1 Fewer than 15% of patients with su...

Exuberant Vasospastic Angina Simulating Severe Three-Vessel Disease

DOI: 10.5935/abc.20170071 A 56-year-old Caucasian male, came to our hospital complaining of thoracic oppression at exertion and sometimes occurring at rest, lasting for a few minutes. The patient was an active smoker, with a moderate alcohol consumption habit and had had an episode of unstable angina two months earlier. At that episode, two drug-eluting stents were implanted, one in the distal ...

v98-086.chp:Corel VENTURA

The reactivity of lignin model compounds under Mannich conditions with piperidine and formaldehyde was studied. The piperidinomethyl group was confirmed to be introduced quantitatively at sterically unhindered positions ortho to a phenolic hydroxyl when the substrate was allowed to react under ambient conditions. The sequential application of the Mannich reaction followed by quantitative P NMR ...
