Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

TRAF3 Epigenetic Regulation Is Associated With Vascular Recurrence in Patients With Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Clopidogrel is one of the most used antiplatelet drugs in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, 16% to 50% of patients have a high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity and an increased risk of ischemic events. The pathogenesis of high on-treatment

ABSTRACT Objectives Regular exchange of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) catheters is crucial for preventing infection and maintaining function; however, procedure‐related complications and patient discomfort remain major concerns. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of the conventional Ideal Button with those of the newly ...

Effects of the atorvastatin and clopidogrel combination therapy on statin bioavailability and platelet function of patients with stable coronary disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Atorvastatin 80 mg is recommended in patients with coronary artery disease to reduce cardiovascular events, however, there is controversy regarding the pharmacokinetic interactions between high doses of statins and the concomitant use of ...

ABSTRACT Retrograde recanalization of chronic total occlusion can be challenging for its association with a greater risk of device entrapment and fracture. Aggressive advancement of retrograde guidewire through tortuous collateral may increase the risk of guidewire fracture. Stent jailing technique can sometimes be adopted based on the location, length,

Stroke genetics: prospects for personalized medicine. [PDF]
Epidemiologic evidence supports a genetic predisposition to stroke. Recent advances, primarily using the genome-wide association study approach, are transforming what we know about the genetics of multifactorial stroke, and are identifying novel stroke ...

ABSTRACT Central nervous system (CNS) hemorrhage is a serious complication of intravenous thrombolysis. Tenecteplase, a fibrin‐specific thrombolytic agent, has a lower risk of hemorrhage than other agents. We report the first documented case of simultaneous intracranial and spinal hemorrhage following intravenous administration of tenecteplase.

ABSTRACT Lateral medullary syndrome (LMS) is commonly associated with vertebral artery strokes, characterized by varied neurological manifestations depending on the site of the lesion. We report the positive effects of interdisciplinary rehabilitation interventions in helping achieve improved functional, psychosocial, and quality of life outcomes in a ...

Antiplatelet drug resistance in patients with coronary heart disease
Coronary angioplasty is an important component of coronary heart disease (CHD) management. There is a substantial evidence of the need for dual antiaggregant therapy (clopidogrel and aspirin) in this clinical group, both before and after the intervention.

Assessment of platelet function in patients with stroke using multiple electrode platelet aggregometry: a prospective observational study [PDF]
Background There is a link between high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) and adverse vascular events in stroke. This study aimed to compare multiple electrode platelet aggregometry (MEA), in healthy subjects and ischaemic stroke patients, and ...
