Preductal Segmental Tubular Aortic Hypoplasia in Perinatally Died Stabyhoun Puppies [PDF]
Background: A high perinatal mortality rate in the Stabyhoun breed prompted one of the Dutch breeding organizations to start an investigation. Preductal segmental tubular aortic hypoplasia is an extremely rarely documented congenital vascular anomaly in ...

The Role of Magnesium in the Management of Cerebral Vasospasm [PDF]
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is characterized by bleeding into the subarachnoid space, often caused by ruptured aneurysm. Aneurysmal rupture occurs in 700,000 individuals per year worldwide, with 40,000 cases taking place in the United States.

Inhibiting Receptor of Advanced Glycation End Products Attenuates Pressure Overload-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction by Preventing Excessive Autophagy [PDF]
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is involved in heart failure (HF) by mediating diverse pathologic processes, including the promotion of inflammation and autophagy.

Mitochondrial Creatine Kinase Attenuates Pathologic Remodeling in Heart Failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in cardiac energy metabolism occur in heart failure (HF) and contribute to contractile dysfunction, but their role, if any, in HF-related pathologic remodeling is much less established.

Early adaptive chromatin remodeling events precede pathologic phenotypes and are reinforced in the failing heart [PDF]
The temporal nature of chromatin structural changes underpinning pathologic transcription are poorly understood. We measured chromatin accessibility and DNA methylation to study the contribution of chromatin remodeling at different stages of cardiac ...

Constrictive and Hypertrophic Strictures in Ileal Crohn's Disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND & AIMS Strictures in Crohn's disease (CD) are classically attributed to fibromuscular hypertrophy of the intestinal wall. We have identified and characterized CD-related ileal strictures that result instead from mural constriction (ie ...

Endoscopic Balloon Dilation for Crohn’s Disease-Associated Strictures [PDF]
Management of intestinal strictures associated with Crohn’s disease (CD) is clinically challenging despite advanced medical therapy directed toward mucosal healing to positively influence the natural course of CD-associated complications.

May-Thurner Syndrome, an Often Overlooked Cause of Deep Vein Thrombosis: A Case Report
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common medical condition, but the predisposing anatomical factors, which may be amenable to definitive treatment, are usually overlooked. Therefore, a high index of clinical suspicion is the key to early diagnosis.

Endoscopic management of anastomotic stricture after living-donor liver transplantation [PDF]
The most effective and fundamental treatment for end-stage liver disease is liver transplantation. Deceased-donor liver transplantation has been performed for many of these cases.

Ketone Ester Treatment Improves Cardiac Function and Reduces Pathologic Remodeling in Preclinical Models of Heart Failure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence suggests that the failing heart reprograms fuel metabolism toward increased utilization of ketone bodies and that increasing cardiac ketone delivery ameliorates cardiac dysfunction.
