Endovascular-First Treatment Is Associated With Improved Amputation-Free Survival in Patients With Critical Limb Ischemia.

Circulation. Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, 2019
BACKGROUND Critical limb ischemia remains a difficult disease to treat, with limited level one data. The BEST-CLI trial (Best Endovascular vs Best Open Surgical Therapy in Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia) is attempting to answer whether initial ...

Blood clot inspired pore‐gradient nanofiber sponge with “outer filtration” and “inner adsorption” bifunction for rapid stop of uncontrolled hemorrhage

BMEMat, EarlyView.
In this study, by mimicking the nanofiber structure and netting blood cells function of fibrin network in blood clots, we developed a novel bioinspired quaternized chitosan nanofiber sponge with distinct blood cell filtration and blood plasma absorption bifunction for rapid hemostasis.

INtravaScular OptIcal Frequency Domain ImaGing EvaluaTion of the Femoropopliteal Lesion With JETSTREAM Atherectomy (INSIGHT JETSTREAM)

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There have been no prior reports of detailed evaluations using intravascular imaging during Jetstream treatment. Aims This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the effects of calcification characteristics and wire bias on lumen gain in Jetstream atherectomy using optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI). Methods This study enrolled

Safety and Efficacy of a Plug‐Based Vascular Closure Device After Percutaneous Microaxial Flow Pump in the Treatment of Complex and High‐Risk Indicated Patients

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Femoral large‐bore vascular access is an important and constantly increasing technique in interventional treatment. Temporary circulatory support in complex and high‐risk indicated patients (CHIP) presents a challenge in terms of postinterventional access site closure.

Nonlinear dynamics of running: Speed, stability, symmetry and the effects of leg amputations [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
In this paper, we study dynamic stability during running, focusing on the effects of speed and the use of a leg prosthesis. We compute and compare the maximal Lyapunov exponents of kinematic time-series data from subjects with and without unilateral transtibial amputations running at a wide range of speeds. We find that the dynamics of the affected leg

Place of the reposition flap in the treatment of distal amputations of the fingers

Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2017
Purpose: Distal finger amputations pose a therapeutic problem with the distal fragment quality. Reimplantation remains the reference treatment for functional and aesthetic recovery of the hand. The interest of this study is to propose the reposition flap

A Case Series and Literature Review of Angiosarcoma With Malignant Effusion—A Challenging Cytologic Diagnosis With Dire Prognostic Implications

Diagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Angiosarcoma with malignant effusion is an uncommon yet clinically aggressive presentation, which poses as a diagnostic pitfall with its overlapping cytomorphologic features with metastatic adenocarcinoma. In this article, two cases reported in the literature were reviewed for cytology, immunocytochemistry, and clinical course.

Integrative biology of injury in animals

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 34-62, February 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Mechanical injury is a prevalent challenge in the lives of animals with myriad potential consequences for organisms, including reduced fitness and death. Research on animal injury has focused on many aspects, including the frequency and severity of wounding in wild populations, the short‐ and long‐term consequences of injury at different ...

Prosthetic pollicization following thumb amputation: A case report

Burns & Trauma, 2014
The thumb contributes over 50% hand function, which is generally divided into motional, sensory and cosmetic functions. Optimal management of thumb loss necessitates individual consideration of surgical versus prosthetic options, in relation to the needs
