ABSTRACT Coronary embolism (CE) is a rare yet significant contributor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), particularly in younger patients. We report a 42‐year‐old male who experienced an AMI following recent cocaine use. Investigations revealed a left ventricular apical thrombus, identified as the source of a distal embolus occluding the right ...

An asymmetric surface coating strategy for promotes rapid endothelialization in the rabbit carotid artery [PDF]
Studying surface modification has long been a key area for enhancing the effects of vascular stents after surgery. The study aimed to develop an asymmetric drug-eluting stent (ADES) with differential drug loading on its inner and outer surfaces, hypothesizing that this design would enhance drug delivery efficacy for percutaneous coronary interventions (

Cerebral embolic lesions detected with diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging following carotid artery stenting: a meta-analysis of 8 studies comparing filter cerebral protection and proximal balloon occlusion. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of the 2 different neuroprotection systems in preventing embolization during carotid artery stenting (CAS), as detected by diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging ...

Blood-Flow Modelling Along and Trough a Braided Multi-Layer Metallic Stent [PDF]
In this work we study the hemodynamics in a stented artery connected either to a collateral artery or to an aneurysmal sac. The blood flow is driven by the pressure drop. Our aim is to characterize the flow-rate and the pressure in the contiguous zone to the main artery: using boundary layer theory we construct a homogenized first order approximation ...

Accuracy of Length of Virtual Stents in Treatment of Intracranial Wide-Necked Aneurysms. [PDF]
Background and purposePrecise stent deployment is important for successful treatment of intracranial aneurysms by stent-assisted coiling (SAC). We evaluated the accuracy of virtual stents generated using commercial stent planning software by comparing ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare type of malignancy ranking among the most aggressive diseases globally, with an extremely poor prognosis. No optimal standardized treatment has been established yet to promote ATC's prognosis and increase the patients' median survival.
