Angioarchitectural evolution of clival dural arteriovenous fistulas in two patients. [PDF]
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) may present in a variety of ways, including as carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas. The ophthalmologic sequelae of carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas are known and recognizable, but less commonly seen is the rare clival ...

Persistent second cervical intersegmental artery diagnosed by MR angiography
Anastomosis between the external carotid and vertebral (VA) arteries is extremely rare. A well-recognized manifestation of such anastomosis is the Type 2 proatlantal artery, which commonly demonstrates anastomosis of the occipital artery with the VA at ...

Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula successfully treated by combined open-endovascular procedure [PDF]
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas constitute a rare though potentially devastating disease. Because the arterial (high-pressure) blood flow drains directly into the low-pressure venous system, there is a high risk of bleeding and associated ...

Can Emergency Physicians Perform Carotid Artery Point-of-Care Ultrasound to Detect Stenosis in Patients with TIA and Stroke? A Pilot Study [PDF]
Introduction: Patients with severe, symptomatic carotid stenosis can have their subsequent stroke risk reduced by surgical intervention if performed soon after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke.

Outflow boundary conditions for 3D simulations of non-periodic blood flow and pressure fields in deformable arteries [PDF]
The simulation of blood flow and pressure in arteries requires outflow boundary conditions that incorporate models of downstream domains. We previously described a coupled multidomain method to couple analytical models of the downstream domains with 3D ...

Hybrid Open and Endovascular Management of a Gunshot Wound to the Carotid Artery
In addition to standard open surgical techniques, major hemorrhage is increasingly being managed using hybrid (open and endovascular) surgery. We present a case of hybrid management of a carotid artery injury secondary to an oropharyngeal gunshot wound.

Metformin for non-diabetic patients with coronary heart disease (the CAMERA study): a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
<br>Background: Metformin reduces cardiovascular risk in patients with type 2 diabetes seemingly independent of lowering blood glucose concentration. We assessed the cardiovascular effects of metformin in individuals without type 2 diabetes.</br&
