Targeting acetylated high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) and toll‐like receptor (TLR4) interaction to alleviate hypertension and neuroinflammation in fructose‐fed rats

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Collateral miracle—reformation of iliac and femoral arteries by collaterals from bilateral subclavian arteries following contained rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm in a hypertensive female

open access: yesJournal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2019
Rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is readily diagnosed when the triad of abdominal or back pain, shock and a pulsatile abdominal mass are present.

Chronic contained posterior rupture of large abdominal aortic aneurysm missed on pre-operative CT imaging

open access: yesAnnals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations, 2022
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]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
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

open access: yesCytopathology, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2018
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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 ...

The impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on longitudinal trends of surgical mortality and inpatient quality of care in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
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

Abdominal aortic aneurysm and cardiometabolic traits share strong genetic susceptibility to lipid metabolism and inflammation

open access: yesNature Communications
Abdominal aortic aneurysm has a high heritability and often co-occurs with other cardiometabolic disorders, suggesting shared genetic susceptibility.

Determination, Calculation and Representation of the Upper and Lower Sealing Zones During Virtual Stenting of Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yesInt J CARS, Vol. 5, Suppl. 1, pp. 13-14, Springer Press, June 2010, 2013
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).
