Severe Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis Treated With Double Patch Aortoplasty: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Severe supravalvular aortic stenosis in a young patient is a rare but critical condition requiring timely diagnosis and intervention. We report a 15‐year‐old girl presenting with exertional dyspnea, chest pain, and palpitations. Echocardiography and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) confirmed severe supravalvular aortic stenosis ...

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

Heat Therapy: Targeting Health, Disease, and Disability
The predominance of evidence suggests heat therapy has an impact on all aspects of health and performance, but the drivers of that improvement, the extent to which they are improved, and the specific populations in which improvements manifest are far from completely understood.

Carotid stenting for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis 3 years after previous carotid endarterectomy [PDF]
Extracranial carotid stenosis is a known complication of external irradiation to the head and neck region. We report on a patient with previous carotid endarterectomy for irradiation-associated carotid stenosis. This patient developed symptomatic carotid

Carotid Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis [PDF]
Angioplasty and stenting should not be performed for patients with asymptomatic atherosclerotic carotid bifurcation stenosis, except in the context of randomized clinical trials. Surgical carotid endarterectomy (CEA) has been proven effective over medical therapy in select asymptomatic patient populations.
