iFR variations during coronary angioplasty
A fifty-five year-old hypertensive and former smoker male admitted with signs of typical chest pain, left bundle brunch block, and normal troponin levels. The angiography revealed 2-vessel, left circumflex and right coronary artery disease.

Particle Astrophysics in NASA's Long Duration Balloon Program [PDF]
A century after Victor Hess' discovery of cosmic rays, balloon flights still play a central role in the investigation of cosmic rays over nearly their entire spectrum. We report on the current status of NASA balloon program for particle astrophysics, with particular emphasis on the very successful Antarctic long-duration balloon program, and new ...

ABSTRACT Coronary embolism (CE) is a rare yet significant contributor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), particularly in younger patients. We report a 42‐year‐old male who experienced an AMI following recent cocaine use. Investigations revealed a left ventricular apical thrombus, identified as the source of a distal embolus occluding the right ...

Balloon pulmonary angioplasty in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is thought to result from incomplete resolution of pulmonary thromboemboli that undergo organisation into fibrous tissue within pulmonary arterial branches, filling pulmonary arterial lumina with ...

The LCX is the most prevalent culprit vessel with acute complete occlusion in NSTEMI patients, yet it has little effect on clinical outcomes. This subset of patients may be predicted by STV5 + STV6 ≥ 2.5 mm and T‐wave imbalance. ABSTRACT Background Complete blockage of the culprit coronary artery is associated with 30% of NSTEMI (non‐ST‐segment ...

Study of the properties of Cosmic rays and solar X-Ray Flares by balloon borne experiments [PDF]
Indian Centre for Space Physics is engaged in pioneering balloon borne experiments with typical payloads less than ~ 3.5kg. Low cost rubber balloons are used to fly them to a height of about 40km. In a double balloon system, the booster balloon lifts the orbiter balloon to its cruising altitude where data is taken for a longer period of time.
