Vascular calcification (VC), which is categorized by intimal and medial calcification,
depending on the site (s) involved within the vessel, is closely related to cardiovascular …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of death in patients with chronic kidney
disease (CKD). Both conditions are rising in incidence as well as prevalence, creating poor …

The implantation of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) is increasingly becoming the treatment
of choice in patients requiring heart valve replacement surgery. Unlike mechanical heart …

AGE/RAGE signaling has been a well‐studied cascade in many different disease states,
particularly diabetes. Due to the complex nature of the receptor and multiple intersecting …

Vascular calcification contributes to the high risk of cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney
disease (CKD) patients. Dysregulation of calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) metabolism is …

A high prevalence of vascular calcification (VC) and a high incidence of cardiovascular
events are two key complications of chronic kidney disease. Since most observational …

Combined results are reported from searches for the standard model Higgs boson in proton–
proton collisions at s= 7 TeV in five Higgs boson decay modes: γγ, bb, ττ, WW, and ZZ. The …

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have
significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality that is in part due to the development of …

Cardiovascular (CV) disease remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality for
patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although clustering of traditional risk factors with …

The polarizations of prompt J/ψ and ψ (2 S) mesons are measured in proton–proton
collisions at s= 7 TeV, using a dimuon data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the …
