Ren Fail.2025 Dec;47(1):2581940. Wen-Lin Lo   ,  Bang-Gee Hsu ,  Chih-Hsien Wang ,  Yu-Lin Lin ,  Chiu-Huang Kuo ,   Yu-Hsien Lai Abstract Background: Patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) present endothelial dysfunction (ED), which is characterized by impaired vasodilation and a pro-inflammatory state. Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) has pro-inflammatory and pro-atherogenic properties. No study has investigated the association between serum Lp(a) and ED in patients with MHD. T

Diagnostics (Basel). 2025 Sep 20;15(18):2400. I-Min Su ,  Ji-Hung Wang ,  Chin-Hung Liu ,  Bang-Gee Hsu   Abstract Background/Objectives : Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiota-derived metabolite influenced by diet, has been linked to cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction, an early sign of vascular damage, is common in hypertension. This study examined the relationship between serum TMAO levels and endothelial function, assessed by the vascular reactivity

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are more than just coexisting conditions—they’re interconnected through a complex web of shared molecular mechanisms and risk factors. A new comprehensive review explores how endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress, and other cellular processes drive this dangerous duo, contributing to poor outcomes and limited treatment options.

Impairments in NVC of the frontal cortex may be an early cerebrovascular mechanism underpinning cognitive decline in MetS and is discernible during higher cognitive loads. Peripheral endothelial dysfunction may be implicated in this mechanism.
