Balloon pulmonary angioplasty for inoperable patients with chronic thromboembolic disease

Pulmonary Circulation, 2017
Symptomatic patients with residual pulmonary perfusion defects or vascular lesions but no pulmonary hypertension at rest are diagnosed with chronic thromboembolic disease (CTED).

Duplex Ultrasound Surveillance After Endovascular Therapy for Peripheral Artery Disease: An Australian and New Zealand Study

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Current practice guidelines lack consensus on optimal surveillance strategies following endovascular interventions for peripheral artery disease (PAD). This study evaluated surveillance practices among vascular surgeons in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), focusing on duplex ultrasound (DUS) use and factors influencing surveillance ...

Neuropilins 1 and 2 mediate neointimal hyperplasia and re-endothelialization following arterial injury [PDF]

, 2015
AIMS: Neuropilins 1 and 2 (NRP1 and NRP2) play crucial roles in endothelial cell migration contributing to angiogenesis and vascular development. Both NRPs are also expressed by cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and are implicated in VSMC ...

ISAR‐PEBIS (Paclitaxel‐Eluting Balloon Versus Conventional Balloon Angioplasty for In‐Stent Restenosis of Superficial Femoral Artery): A Randomized Trial

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Paclitaxel‐eluting balloon (PEB) angioplasty has superior efficacy compared with conventional balloon angioplasty (BA) for de novo lesions of superficial femoral artery (SFA).

Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty Can Facilitate Rehabilitation in Patient With Hemispatial Neglect: A Case Report

Neurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The superiority of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) over maximal medical therapy for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis in terms of secondary prevention has yet to be proved. However, several studies have reported that PTA can improve cortical symptoms and cognitive dysfunctions in selected patients with intracranial artery ...

Rupture, Breakdown, and Pulmonary Artery Embolism of a Balloon Catheter Tip during Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty of Arteriovenous Fistula

Vascular Specialist International, 2019
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is a well-known treatment for arteriovenous fistula stenosis. Balloon rupture during endovascular procedures is a rare but possible complication.

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.

Long-term clinical safety and efficacy of drug-eluting stents in real-world patients [PDF]

, 2011
Since the fi rst balloon angioplasty was performed in the late 1970’s, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has undergone rapid transformation to become an essential treatment option for coronary artery disease as an alternative to surgery.

Pathogen burden, inflammation, proliferation and apoptosis in human in-stent restenosis - Tissue characteristics compared to primary atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2004
Pathogenic events leading to in-stent restenosis (ISR) are still incompletely understood. Among others, inflammation, immune reactions, deregulated cell death and growth have been suggested. Therefore, atherectomy probes from 21 patients with symptomatic
