Physician-modified aortic cuff to “stabilize” paravisceral aortic thrombus and minimize risk of distal embolization during pararenal aneurysm repair with fenestrated stent graft

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022
As technology and surgeon experience evolve, endovascular repair of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms is often preferred in appropriately selected patients. However, the presence of pedunculated aortic thrombus represents a relative contraindication for

Hemostatic efficacy of a flowable collagen-thrombin matrix during coronary artery bypass grafting: a double-blind randomized controlled trial

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Background Flowable hemostatic agents have the advantage of being able to be applied to irregular wound surfaces and difficult to reach areas. We sought to compare the effectiveness and safety of the flowable hemostatic sealants Collastat® (collagen ...

PPARs and the Cardiovascular System

Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2009
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to the nuclear hormone-receptor superfamily. Originally cloned in 1990, PPARs were found to be mediators of pharmacologic agents that induce hepatocyte peroxisome proliferation. PPARs also are expressed in cells of the cardiovascular system.

Lessons from the post-genomic era: Globin diversity beyond oxygen binding and transport

Redox Biology, 2020
Vertebrate hemoglobin (Hb) and myoglobin (Mb) were among the first proteins whose structures and sequences were determined over 50 years ago. In the subsequent pregenomic period, numerous related proteins came to light in plants, invertebrates and ...

High Risk Coronary Atherectomy, Perforation, and Successful Percutaneous Treatment

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
We report a case of coronary perforation during high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention with Impella (Abiomed, Danvers, Massachusetts) support that resulted in cessation of pulsatile arterial flow. Maintenance of systemic perfusion due to antecedent

Arginase-2 enhances monocyte-endothelial interaction through regulation of integrin and membrane receptor expression: role in atherogenesis

Journal of Biomedical Science
Background Circulating monocyte trans-endothelial migration is critical for vascular diseases. The monocyte surface proteins, i.e., integrins and membrane receptors are central in this process.

Isolated Marked Inferior Vena Cava Dilatation: Unusual Presentation or Underrecognized Common Phenomenon?

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2018
Inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and respirophasic variation are commonly used echocardiographic indices to estimate right atrial pressure. While dilatation of the IVC and reduced collapsibility have traditionally been associated with elevated right ...

Balloon protection of the mesenteric-renal vessels during embolectomy of acute paravisceral aortic occlusion

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Acute thrombosis of the aorta is an uncommon, but potentially devastating, vascular emergency. The absence of pathognomonic signs or symptoms makes the diagnosis challenging and, often, time consuming.
