Long-term Consequences of Kawasaki Disease A 10- to 21-Year Follow-up Study of 594 Patients

TL;DR: The incidence of coronary aneurysm in acute Kawasaki disease was 25%, 55% of which showed regression, and during follow-up, ischemic heart disease developed in 4.7% and myocardial infarction in 1.9%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of host angiotensin II type 1 receptor in tumor angiogenesis and growth.

TL;DR: It is shown that host angiotensin II (ATII) type 1 (AT1) receptor plays an important role in angiogenesis and growth of tumor cells engrafted in mice, and the host ATII-AT1 receptor pathway thereby plays important roles in tumor-related angiogenic and growth in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long term consequences of regressed coronary aneurysms after Kawasaki disease: vascular wall morphology and function

TL;DR: There is evidence of persisting abnormal vascular wall morphology and vascular dysfunction at the site of regressed coronary aneurysms in patients with previous Kawasaki disease, and long term follow up is needed into adult life.
Journal ArticleDOI
