Optimal Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Duration For Carotid Artery Stenting On the Basis of Angioscopic Findings [PDF]

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology
Background Dual antiplatelet therapy plays a crucial role in preventing thrombosis in the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting (CAS); however, it has been associated with a risk of hemorrhagic complications. A standard regimen for the duration

Clarification of embolic source in ischaemic stroke by non-obstructive general angioscopy [PDF]

Open Heart
Background Aortogenic stroke is an important subtype of embolic strokes, yet lacks a diagnostic method for proactive identification. Non-obstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) is a catheter-based technique to observe spontaneously ruptured aortic plaques (

Hypothesis on the role of cholesterol crystals in spontaneously ruptured aortic plaques: Potential triggers for inflammation and systemic effects [PDF]

American Heart Journal Plus
Cholesterol crystals (CCs) are a key component of atherosclerotic plaques and play a pivotal role in plaque progression, rupture, and the resulting inflammatory responses.

Endovascular structures of the basilar artery as forms of the basilar nonfusion spectrum [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Cerebrovascular diseases are a growing social and clinical problem. The intravascular anatomy of the cerebral circulation remains poorly understood, although an increasing number of endovascular interventions are being conducted.

Long-term clinical significance of the presence of puff-chandelier ruptures detected by non-obstructive aortic angioscopy [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Although studies have reported various patterns of atherosclerotic aortic plaques (AAPs) detected by non-obstructive aortic angioscopy (NOA), the long-term outcomes associated with AAPs such as puff-chandelier rupture atheromatous plaque (PCR), remain ...

Coronary arterial repair in patients with stable angina pectoris or acute coronary syndrome after ultrathin biodegradable polymer sirolimus‐eluting stent implantation at 1‐year follow‐up by coronary angioscopy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 102, Issue 6, Page 1012-1019, November 15, 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Imaging modality‐based evidence is limited that compares the extent of coronary arterial repair after percutaneous coronary intervention between patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and those with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods Between December 2018 and November 2021, a single‐center, nonrandomized, observational study

Use of Optical Coherence Tomography in Dentistry

International Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optics‐based imaging technique, which may be called an “optical biopsy.” It can be used to acquire structural information about a tissue at a resolution comparable to histopathology. OCT is based on the principle of low‐coherence interferometry where near‐infrared (NIR) light is shown on a tissue sample and then

Cardiac Computed Tomography Assessment of the Variation of Papillary Muscle Morphology before Mitral Valve Surgery

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. The morphology of the papillary muscles of the left ventricle is highly variable. Few studies have investigated papillary muscle morphology using imaging. Objective. This study aimed to assess papillary muscle morphology with primary mitral regurgitation (MR) using cardiac computed tomography (CT). Methods.

2022 Update of the Consensus on the Rational Use of Antithrombotics and Thrombolytics in Veterinary Critical Care (CURATIVE) Domain 6: Defining rational use of thrombolytics

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 446-470, July/August 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives To systematically review available evidence and establish guidelines related to the use of thrombolytics for the management of small animals with suspected or confirmed thrombosis. Design PICO (Population, Intervention, Control, and Outcome) questions were formulated, and worksheets completed as part of a standardized and systematic
