Sex Differences Among Patients Treated With Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension. [PDF]

Pulm Circ
ABSTRACT Studies have shown sex differences in the outcomes of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and in patients who have undergone pulmonary endarterectomy. Limited data exist regarding outcomes of balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) for female versus male subjects.

ASCORE: an up-to-date cardiovascular risk score for hypertensive patients reflecting contemporary clinical practice developed using the (ASCOT-BPLA) trial data. [PDF]

, 2013
A number of risk scores already exist to predict cardiovascular (CV) events. However, scores developed with data collected some time ago might not accurately predict the CV risk of contemporary hypertensive patients that benefit from more modern ...

Accidental Stent Extraction Following a Rescue Manipulation to Retrieve a Lost Coronary Guidewire: A Very Rare Complication. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT We present a complex angioplasty case in which a coronary guidewire became trapped between a calcified nodule and a newly implanted stent, leading to wire rupture and subsequent accidental stent extraction. This case underscores the importance of intracoronary imaging and highlights the potential procedural challenges and rare complications in

Drug Coated Balloon Angioplasty in Failing AV Fistulas: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

American Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2018
BACKGROUND Restenosis remains a problem in hemodialysis access interventions. Paclitaxel-coated balloons have shown promise in reducing access-related restenosis in small trials.

Treatment of recoarctation: Balloon dilation angioplasty [PDF]

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
Balloon dilation of recoarctation of the aorta was performed 47 times in 44 patients 49 +/- 54 months after surgical repair. The initial operation was performed in the neonatal period in 29 patients (66%). The age at balloon dilation was 4.9 +/- 5.3 years (range 2 months to 20 years) and weight was 18 +/- 15 kg (range 2 to 72).

The IkB kinase inhibitor nuclear factor-kB essential modulator–binding domain peptide for inhibition of balloon injury-induced neointimal formation [PDF]

, 2009
Objective—The activation of nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) is a crucial step in the arterial wall’s response to injury. The identification and characterization of the NF-kB essential modulator– binding domain (NBD) peptide, which can block the activation of
