“…As shown in Figure , immediately after implantation, a variety of proteins in the interstitial fluid or blood are adsorbed onto the biomaterials surface, forming a corona or a provisional matrix around the scaffold, [ 20 ] which will directly influence the body's response to the material. [ 21 ] Platelets and red blood cells also arrive in a short time to prevent hemorrhage and form a temporary scaffold for cell recruitment.…”

“…It is anticipated that these improvements will reduce the risk of restenosis of the stents. [10,11] An advantage of CABG over PCI was pointed out by Doenst et al that PCI is only able to ameliorate flow-limiting stenosis. [2] However, there are also nonflow-limiting stenosis that are at risk of rupture and cause thrombotic occlusion and further cardiac infarction as shown in Figure 1.…”

Cardiovascular disease leads to the highest morbidity worldwide. There is an urgent need to solve the lack of a viable arterial graft for patients requiring coronary artery bypass surgery. The current gold standard is to use the patient's own blood vessel, such as a saphenous vein graft. However, some patients do not have appropriate vessels to use because of systemic disease or secondary surgery. On the other hand, there is no commercially available synthetic vascular graft available on the market for small diameter (<6 mm) blood vessels like coronary, carotid, and peripheral popliteal arteries. Tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) are studied in recent decades as a promising alternative to synthetic arterial prostheses. Yet only a few studies have proceeded to a clinical trial. Recent studies have uncovered that the host immune response can be directed toward increasing the success of a TEVG by shedding light on ways to modulate the macrophage response and improve the tissue regeneration outcome. In this review, the basic concepts of vascular tissue engineering and immunoengineering are considered. The state-of-art of TEVGs is summarized and the role of macrophages in TEVG regeneration is analyzed. Current immunomodulatory strategies based on biomaterials are also discussed.

“…The diagnosis of CAD takes into account the presence of symptoms, risk factors and complementary diagnostic methods that generally use stress mechanisms, with the goal of diagnosing the presence of myocardial ischemia. Among these, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) plays an important role in the diagnosis and prognosis of CAD (2) .…”

Background: As coronary heart disease (CHD) is a highly complex disease, complex continuity of care (CoC) service should be provided for the patients, and the quality of life (QoL) needs to be regarded as an important measuring indicator for the health-care outcome. Purpose: To understand the general situation of CHD QoL and important predictors. Method: A cross-sectional study design was adopted from August 2019 to July 2020 by structured questionnaires. A total of 163 patients were enrolled, and data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 25.0. Result: The average score of the QoL questionnaire is 56.56/80, and the CoC is 4.32. The overall regression model can explain 58.7% of the variance regarding QoL. Patients’ instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) (26.1%), age (18.1%), living situation (7%), information transfer (4.8%), main source of income (1.8%), and risk of disability are significantly different from their overall QoL in depression (0.9%). Conclusions: In order to improve the QoL of patients, it is suggested that medical teams should assess the needs of patients immediately upon hospitalization, provide patients with individual CoC, encourage them to participate in community health promotion activities, and strengthen the function of IADL to improve the QoL of patients.
