    Abstract Ischemic symptoms may be explained by a multitude of coronary pathologies, including coronary artery tortuosity, atherosclerosis, fibromuscular dysplasia, vasculitis, coronary vasospasm, or microvascular disease. We present an unusual case of coronary kinking in a patient presenting with exertional jaw pain in the absence of atherosclerotic risk factors. Multimodality imaging, coronary imaging, and coronary physiology helped establish the diagnosis and guide management.

    Abstract Takotsubo/stress cardiomyopathy (TC) or apical ballooning syndrome is an increasingly recognised entity around the world. It is an acute reversible cardiac syndrome that has a striking female predominance, with approximately 90 % of cases occurring in women, the vast majority of whom are post-menopausal. Chest pain and dysponea are the most common presenting symptoms. The symptoms and signs are similar to those in other acute cardiac conditions characterised by acute myocardial ischemia or heart failure. A characteristic feature of the syndrome is its relationship to emotional or physical stressful triggers. The process of diagnosing TC is, to a large extent, one of exclusion of other conditions that it mimics. The Mayo Clinic diagnostic criteria are the most widely used. Since acute coronary syndrome is often suspected before the diagnosis of TC is made, initial treatment is often similar to that for an acute myocardial infarction. However, after the diagnosis of TC is confirmed, treatment is supportive with monitoring and treatment of complications. The vast majority of patients with TC have good prognosis with complete resolution of systolic dysfunction.

    Abstract Background: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) represents an early functional characteristic of coronary vascular aging. Klotho (α-klotho) is a circulating protein inversely linked to physiological aging. We examined low klotho as a potential marker for vascular aging in patients with CMD and no coronary artery disease.
    Methods and results: Patients undergoing nonurgent angiogram for chest pain who had no coronary artery disease underwent invasive coronary microvascular and endothelial function testing. CMD was defined by ≤50% increase in coronary blood flow (percentage change in coronary blood flow) in response to intracoronary acetylcholine or coronary flow reserve ≤2. Fresh arterial whole blood was used to analyze circulating endothelial progenitor cells with flow cytometry. Stored arterial plasma was used for klotho analysis by ELISA. Participants with CMD (n=62) were compared with those without CMD (n=36). Those with CMD were age 55±10 years (versus 51±11 years;
    Conclusions: Klotho may be a biomarker for CMD and may be a therapeutic target for groups of patients without significant traditional cardiovascular risk.

    Abstract Objectives: Early coronary angiography (CAG) has been recommended in selected patients following out-of-hospital-cardiac-arrest (OHCA). We aimed to identify clinical features associated with acute coronary occlusion (ACO) and evaluate the associations between ACO, successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and outcomes in this population.
    Methods: We included comatose OHCA patients treated with targeted temperature management (TTM) between December 2005 and September 2016 who underwent early CAG within 24 hours. The co-primary outcomes were all-cause 30-day mortality and good neurological outcome (modified Rankin Score [mRS] ≤2) at hospital discharge.
    Results: Among 155 patients (93% shockable arrest rhythm, 55% with ST elevation), 133 (86%) had coronary artery stenosis ≥50% and 65 (42%) had ACO. ST elevation (sensitivity 74%, specificity 59%, OR 4.0, 95% CI 2.0-8.1) and elevated first troponin (sensitivity 88%, specificity 26%, OR 2.5, 95% CI 1.1-6.1) had limited sensitivity and specificity for ACO. Unadjusted 30-day mortality did not differ significantly by coronary disease severity or ACO. Successful PCI was associated with a lower risk of 30-day mortality (adjusted HR 0.5, 95% CI 0.2-0.9, P=.03), especially among patients with ACO (adjusted HR 0.4, 95% CI 0.1-0.9, P=0.03). After adjustment, ACO and PCI were not associated with the probability of good neurological outcome.
    Conclusions: In this select cohort of resuscitated OHCA patients undergoing CAG, unstable coronary disease is highly prevalent and successful PCI was associated with a higher probability of 30-day survival, especially among those with ACO. Neither ACO nor successful PCI were independently associated with good neurological outcome.

    Abstract Chirality transfer from the level of molecular structure up to mesoscopic lengthscales of supramolecular morphologies is a broad and persistent theme in self-assembled soft materials, from biological to synthetic matter. Here, we analyze the mechanism of chirality transfer in a prototypical self-assembly system, block copolymers (BCPs), in particular, its impact on one of the most complex and functionally vital phases: the cubic, triply-periodic, gyroid network. Motivated by recent experimental studies, we consider a self-consistent field model of ABC* triblock copolymers possessing an end-block of chain chemistry and examine the interplay between chirality at the scale of networks, in alternating double network phases, and the patterns of segmental order within tubular network domains. We show that while segments in gyroids exhibit twist in both polar and nematic segmental order parameters, the magnitude of net nematic twist is generically much larger than polar twist, and more surprising, {\it reverses handedness} relative to the sense of polar order as well as the sense of dihedral twist of the network. Careful analysis of the intra-domain nematic order reveals that this unique chirality transfer mechanism relies on the strongly biaxial nature of segmental order in BCP networks and relates the {\it biaxial twist} to complex patterns of frame rotation of the principal directors in the intra-domain texture. Finally, we show that this mechanism of twist reversal leads to chirality selection of alternating gyroid networks in ABC* triblocks, in the limit of very weak chirality .
