Characterization of Hemodynamically Stable Acute Heart Failure Patients requiring Critical Care Unit Admissions
DownloadFall 2016
Background: It remains unclear which patients with acute heart failure (AHF) may benefit from critical care unit (CCU) versus regular ward-based care when they are admitted to hospital. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical predictors of adverse clinical outcomes and the need for...

Characterization of the Mitochondrial Phenotype Associated with Primary Biliary Cholangitis
DownloadSpring 2017
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of intra-hepatic bile ducts. The autoimmune nature of PBC involves humoral and cell-mediated responses that target endogenous mitochondrial proteins. It is thought that the breakdown of...

Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

Chronic Heart Failure: The Roles of the Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Axis and Left-Atrial Structural and Functional Remodeling
DownloadFall 2014
Heart failure (HF) is a global epidemic, with a substantial burden on healthcare systems. Effective therapies have emerged for patients suffering from HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFREF), but not for those with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF). Recently, systemic inflammation, driven by...

Clinical and Angiographic Outcomes Associated with Surgical Revascularization of Angiographically Borderline 50-69% Coronary Artery Stenoses
DownloadFall 2017
Objectives: Coronary artery bypass grafting improves outcomes in patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease. Bypass of angiographically significant lesions ≥70% is recommended, yet little is known about the incidence/outcomes with bypasses of 50-69% angiographically borderline lesions...
