Ballooning dispersal using silk: world fauna, phylogenies, genetics and models

open access: yes, 2005
Aerial dispersal using silk (‘ballooning’) has evolved in spiders (Araneae), spider mites (Acari) and in the larvae of moths (Lepidoptera). Since the 17th century, over 500 observations of ballooning behaviours have been published, yet there is an ...

Ballooning dispersal in arthropod taxa with convergent behaviours: dynamic properties of ballooning silk in turbulent flows

open access: yes, 2006
We present a new model of ballooning behaviour in arthropods in which draglines are regarded as being extendible and completely flexible. Our numerical simulations reveal that silk draglines within turbulent flows can become twisted and stretched into ...

Transbronchial Access of Solitary Pulmonary Nodules Without Bronchus Sign Using a Novel Puncture Dilatation Catheter: Initial Feasibility Experience

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
This case series reports the initial clinical experience using a novel, single‐use transbronchial puncture dilatation catheter compatible with thin bronchoscopes. In two distinct cases involving a lung nodule with negative bronchus sign and a stenotic airway, the device successfully facilitated ‘off‐road’ access and radial EBUS verification, enabling ...

Impact of Carina Width on Re‐Ablation Rate of Atrial Fibrillation After Primary Cryoballoon‐Ablation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 1947-1955, September 2026.
Right side carina width is associated with the incidence of reconnection of RPVs and re‐ablation. Increased left side carina width was associated with re‐ablation rate, but there was no association with reconnection of the LPVs. ABSTRACT Background Reconnection of the pulmonary veins (PVs) is the primary cause of atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes after

Apical Ballooning Syndrome or Tako-tsubo Cardiomyopathy: What We Know about It [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2007
Apical ballooning syndrome (ABS) is a reversible cardiomyopathy with presentation mimicking an acute coronary syndrome. So in clinical practice, it is essential to consider it in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with chest pain ...

Tako tsubo cardiomyopathy (transient left ventricular apical ballooning): case report of a myocardial perfusion echocardiogram study

open access: yes, 2005
We are reporting a case of Tako tsubo cardiomyopathy (transient left ventricular apical ballooning) in the Western population identified by a perfusion echocardiogram that demonstrated perfusion defect at baseline in the apical and adjacent walls that ...
