Journal ArticleDOI
Pomegranate juice consumption for 3 years by patients with carotid artery stenosis reduces common carotid intima-media thickness, blood pressure and LDL oxidation
Michael Aviram,Mira Rosenblat,Diana Gaitini,Samy Nitecki,Aaron Hoffman,Leslie Dornfeld,Nina Volkova,Dita Presser,Judith Attias,Harley Liker,Tony Hayek +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that pomegranate juice consumption by patients with CAS decreases carotid IMT and systolic blood pressure and these effects could be related to the potent antioxidant characteristics of PJ polyphenols.
Journal Article
Pomegranate juice flavonoids inhibit low-density lipoprotein oxidation and cardiovascular diseases: studies in atherosclerotic mice and in humans
Michael Aviram,Leslie Dornfeld,Marielle Kaplan,Raymond Coleman,Diana Gaitini,Samy Nitecki,A Hofman,Mira Rosenblat,Nina Volkova,Dita Presser,Judith Attias,Tony Hayek,Bianca Fuhrman +12 more
TL;DR: Pomegranate polyphenols were shown to reduce the capacity of macrophages to oxidatively modify LDL, due to their interaction with LDL to inhibit its oxidation by scavenging reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prosthetic Vascular Graft Infection: The Role of 18F-FDG PET/CT
TL;DR: 18F-FDG PET/CT is a reliable noninvasive imaging modality for the diagnosis of vascular graft–related infection and enables accurate differentiation between graft and soft-tissue infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
