Novel Vascular‐Adaptive Liquid Metal Microspheres Enable Visualized Arterial Embolization Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present drug‐loaded liquid metal microspheres (X‐MEN) as a novel agent for image‐guided arterial embolization. With inherent radiopacity and superior deformability, X‐MEN enables real‐time monitoring and conforms tightly to irregular vessels. This approach ensures precise, long‐lasting embolization without recanalization, addressing critical ...

Carotid artery stenting

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2012
Atherosclerotic narrowing (stenosis) of the internal carotid artery accounts for about 10–15% of ischaemic strokes. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) reduces the risk of stroke in patients with symptomatic stenosis and – to a lesser degree – with asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

PRAS40 suppresses atherogenesis through inhibition of mTORC1-dependent pro-inflammatory signaling in endothelial cells [PDF]

, 2019
Endothelial pro-inflammatory activation plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis, and many pro-inflammatory and atherogenic signals converge upon mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR).

Mechanically Robust Biodegradable Stents With Theragenerative Vascular Responses via Combined 3D Printing and Janus Nanoengineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a theragenerative 3D‐printed biodegradable stent with Janus nanoarchitecture for spatially controlled vascular healing. A luminal tantalum ion–implanted surface accelerates endothelialization and hemocompatibility, while an abluminal sirolimus/poly‐L‐lactic acid–tantalum layer provides sustained drug release and suppresses smooth ...

Ophthalmic artery originating from contralateral internal carotid artery associated with ipsilateral agenesis of internal carotid artery

Radiology Case Reports
Congenital absence of the internal carotid artery is a rare anatomical variant. The primarily reported origins of the ophthalmic artery associated with this variant are the posterior communicating, middle cerebral, and external carotid arteries.

Targeted Thrombolysis via CCR2‐Engineered Macrophage‐Mimicking Microbubbles Safely Ablates Venous, Arterial, and Microvascular Thrombosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CCR2‐Enhanced Macrophage Membrane–Camouflaged Microbubbles for MCP‐1–Mediated Thrombus Targeting and Ultrasound‐Triggered Urokinase Release. ABSTRACT The clinical management of thrombosis, a primary cause of death worldwide, is hampered by the limitations of current thrombolytic agents, including short half‐life and high risk of off‐target bleeding ...

Prevalence of carotid artery disease in candidates undergoing coronary bypass graft seen at Madras Medical Mission

Sahel Medical Journal, 2013
Background: Significant carotid artery disease in candidates going for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) increases the risk of developing peri-operative neurologic events. Therefore, a pre-operative carotid Doppler ultrasonography, which is simple, non-

Fully automated segmentation and tracking of the intima media thickness in ultrasound video sequences of the common carotid artery [PDF]

, 2013
—The robust identification and measurement of the intima media thickness (IMT) has a high clinical relevance because it represents one of the most precise predictors used in the assessment of potential future cardiovascular events.
