A modified heterotopic heart transplantation (HTx) in rats was reported to improve the surgical success rate, in which the donor's vessels, the brachiocephalic trunk (BT) and the pulmonary artery (PA), were sutured to the recipient's left renal artery (RA) and left renal vein (RV).

Update in the treatment of extracranial atherosclerotic disease for stroke prevention
Stroke is a leading cause of adult mortality and disability worldwide. Extracranial atherosclerotic disease (ECAD), primarily, carotid artery stenosis, accounts for approximately 18%–25% of ischaemic stroke.

The role of biomechanics in the assessment of carotid atherosclerosis severity: a numerical approach [PDF]
Numerical fluid biomechanics has been proved to be an efficient tool for understanding vascular diseases including atherosclerosis. There are many evidences that atherosclerosis plaque formation and rupture are associated with blood flow ...

Magnetic resonance imaging plaque hemorrhage for risk stratification in carotid artery disease with moderate risk under current medical therapy [PDF]
Background and Purpose—Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)–defined carotid plaque hemorrhage (MRIPH) can predict recurrent cerebrovascular ischemic events in severe symptomatic carotid stenosis. It is less clear whether MRIPH can improve risk stratification

Among patients with acute ischemic stroke achieving successful large vessel recanalization (defined as expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction [eTICI ≥2b]), incomplete tissue‐level reperfusion, distinct from visually identifiable distal occlusion on digital‐subtraction angiography, remains a significant challenge.

Atherectomy With Multimodal Embolic Protection for Severely Calcified Femoropopliteal Lesions
ABSTRACT Severe calcification in femoropopliteal lesions remains a clinical challenge to achieve both the technical and long‐term success in endovascular therapy. Although atherectomy is an effective treatment for calcified lesions, it is associated with the risk of distal embolization, even with the use of embolic protection devices (EPDs), and ...
