Abstract Background and Purpose Our previous study reported that fructose intake increased systemic blood pressure and reduced nitric oxide (NO) in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) due to oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. However, it remains unclear how reactive oxygen species (ROS) reduce NO and how this process impacts neuroinflammation in ...

Objectives We discuss the case of a 9.0 cm chronic contained ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in a stable 60 year-old male presenting in the ambulatory setting, which was identified intraoperatively after being missed on pre-surgical imaging.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Segmentation with a Small Number of Training Subjects [PDF]
Pre-operative Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) 3D shape is critical for customized stent-graft design in Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair (FEVAR). Traditional segmentation approaches implement expert-designed feature extractors while recent deep neural networks extract features automatically with multiple non-linear modules.

Ultrasound fundamentals and their clinical implications for interventional cytopathologists
Interventional cytopathologists need to know about ultrasound physics and instrumentation to produce an image that faithfully recreates the lesion discovered by the sonographer and diagnosed by the radiologist. A deep quantitative understanding of physics is not required.

Fully automatic detection and segmentation of abdominal aortic thrombus in post-operative CTA images using deep convolutional neural networks [PDF]
Computerized Tomography Angiography (CTA) based follow-up of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) treated with Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) is essential to evaluate the progress of the patient and detect complications. In this context, accurate quantification of post-operative thrombus volume is required.

Fenestrated Endovascular Aneurysm Repair versus Snorkel Endovascular Aneurysm Repair: Competing yet Complementary Strategies. [PDF]
Juxtarenal/pararenal aortic aneurysms and type IV thoracoabdominal aneurysms pose particular technical challenges for endovascular repair as they involve the visceral segment in addition to insufficient infrarenal neck for the use of standard ...

Abstract Aims Previous studies have shown the COVID‐19 pandemic was associated with reductions in volume across a spectrum of non‐SARS‐CoV‐2 hospitalizations. In the present study, we examine the impact of the pandemic on patient safety and quality of care. Design This is a retrospective population‐based study of discharge abstracts. Methods We applied

Determination, Calculation and Representation of the Upper and Lower Sealing Zones During Virtual Stenting of Aneurysms [PDF]
In this contribution, a novel method for stent simulation in preoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA) acquisitions of patients is presented where the sealing zones are automatically calculated and visualized. The method is eligible for non-bifurcated and bifurcated stents (Y-stents).
