Case report: Epstein–Barr virus and constrictive pericarditis—An unusual combination
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 Constrictive pericarditis is a chronic inflammatory process that can lead to heart failure if not diagnosed and treated correctly. Although Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)–related pericarditis is a very rare condition, it should still be considered for a ...

Outcomes of pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis following mediastinal irradiation
Journal of cardiac surgery, 2021 Pericardiectomy for postradiation constrictive pericarditis has been reported to generally have unfavorable outcomes. This study sought to evaluate surgical outcomes in a large cohort of patients undergoing pericardiectomy for radiation‐associated ...

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis: Common and uncommon presentations
Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, Volume 66, Issue 8, Page 1089-1096, December 2022., 2022 Summary Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a multisystemic autoimmune small vessel vasculitis predominantly affecting the respiratory and renal systems. Other systems such as the central nervous system, orbital, cardiac and gastrointestinal systems may also be involved to a lesser degree.

Constriction of actin rings by passive crosslinkers [PDF]
, 2022 In many organisms, cell division is driven by the constriction of a cytokinetic ring, which consists of actin filaments and crosslinking proteins. While it has long been believed that the constriction is driven by motor proteins, it has recently been discovered that passive crosslinkers that do not turn over fuel are able to generate enough force to ...

Blunt trauma as a suspected cause of delayed constrictive pericarditis: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2011 Introduction Constrictive pericarditis is a heterogeneous disease with many causes. Traumatic hemopericardium is an uncommon initiating cause. We report the case of a man developing constrictive pericarditis after blunt chest trauma, in order to ...

A rare case of constrictive pericarditis with Budd–Chiari syndrome due to right atrial thrombosis
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2021 Patients living with HIV (PLWH) with previous pulmonary tuberculosis, presenting with disproportionate ascites to peripheral congestion, should alert the clinician to consider constrictive pericarditis and Budd–Chiari syndrome (BCS).

Activity-induced asymmetric dispersion in confined channels with constriction [PDF]
, 2023 Microorganisms, such as E.Coli, are known to display upstream behavior and respond rheotactically to shear flows. In particular, E.Coli suspensions have been shown to display strong sensitivity to spatial constrictions, leading to an anomalous densification past the constriction for incoming fluid velocities comparable to the microoganism's self ...

Brothers with constrictive pericarditis – A novel mutation in a rare disease
Indian Heart Journal, 2016 Familial constrictive pericarditis is extremely rare. We report a case of two brothers both suffering constrictive pericarditis along with having multiple painless joint deformities.

Characterization of superconducting nanowire single-photon detector with artificial constrictions [PDF]
AIP Advances 4, 067114 (2014), 2014 Statistical studies on the performance of different superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) on one chip suggested that random constrictions existed in the nanowire that were barely registered by scanning electron microscopy. With the aid of advanced e-beam lithography, artificial geometric constrictions were fabricated on SNSPDs as ...
