TL;DR: The term "vulnerable patient" may be more appropriate and is proposed now for the identification of subjects with high likelihood of developing cardiac events in the near future and a quantitative method for cumulative risk assessment of vulnerable patients needs to be developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Johannes A. Schaar,James E. Muller,Erling Falk,Renu Virmani,Valentin Fuster,Patrick W. Serruys,Antonio Colombo,Christodoulos Stefanadis,S. Ward Casscells,Pedro R. Moreno,Attilio Maseri,Anton F. W. van der Steen +11 more
TL;DR: A group of investigators met for two days in Santorini, Greece, to discuss progress in the field of identification and treatment of high risk/vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques and patients and reached agreement on their own usage of the terms as described below.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronary Composition and Macrophage Infiltration in Atherectomy Specimens From Patients With Diabetes Mellitus
Pedro R. Moreno,Alvaro M. Murcia,Igor F. Palacios,Miltiadis N Leon,Victor Bernardi,Valentin Fuster,John T. Fallon +6 more
TL;DR: Coronary tissue from patients with diabetes exhibits a larger content of lipid-rich atheroma, macrophage infiltration, and subsequent thrombosis than tissue from Patients without diabetes, suggesting an increased vulnerability for coronary thromBosis in patients with Diabetes mellitus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrophages, smooth muscle cells, and tissue factor in unstable angina : Implications for cell-mediated thrombogenicity in acute coronary syndromes

TL;DR: Tissue factor content is increased in unstable angina and correlates with areas of macrophages and smooth muscle cells, suggesting a cell-mediated thrombogenicity in patients with acute coronary syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI
New aspects in the pathogenesis of diabetic atherothrombosis.
TL;DR: Three subfamilies, including PPAR-alpha, -delta, and -gamma, have been identified with crucial roles in lipid metabolism, plaque inflammation, expression of adhesion molecules and cytokines, and regulation of matrix metalloproteinases.
