Coronary intramural hematoma: Challenges in diagnosis and management

open access: yesHeart Views, 2019
Coronary intramural hematoma (CIH) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a rare cause of acute coronary syndrome. As the diagnosis is really challenging, its incidence is really under estimated.

Impact of proctoring on success rates for percutaneous revascularisation of coronary chronic total occlusions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of proctoring for chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in six UK centres. METHODS: We retrospectively analysed 587 CTO procedures from six UK centres and compared success rates of ...

Improvement of left ventricular function assessment by global longitudinal strain after successful percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The benefit of revascularization of chronic total occlusion (CTO) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is controversial. On the other hand, left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a more sensitive marker of LV myocardial ischemia

Predicting pavement condition index using artificial neural networks approach

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2022
Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is a numerical assessment of pavement conditions based on existing distresses. The PCI values are used for pavement management and rehabilitation programs. Calculating the PCIs using conventional method relies on collecting

High Charge Carrier Mobility in Non‐Conjugated 3D Covalent Organic Frameworks

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A non‐conjugated 3D COF constructed via boronate ester linkages from tetraphenylene and pyrene‐based monomers is reported, which exhibits a high charge carrier mobility of 14 ± 1 cm2 V−1 s−1. ABSTRACT π‐Conjugation, π–π stacking, and long‐range order play a central role in determining charge transport efficiency in organic materials.

Vocations as a source of identity: reciprocal relations between Big Five personality traits and RIASEC characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although work is a core part of life, the direction of influence from personality to work has typically been conceived as only unidirectional. The present study aims to contribute to the literature by considering reciprocal relations between personality ...

Influence of the Substrate Temperature on the Growth Mechanism of Allylamine Plasma Polymer Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The influence of the substrate temperature on the growth mechanism of allylamine plasma polymers is investigated by correlating the plasma chemistry and the physico‐chemical properties of the coatings. New insights about the mechanistic formation of functionalized plasma polymers at a molecular level are provided, paving the way toward a better ...

Detecting Restenosis after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Exercise-Stress Electrocardiogram Findings Including QT Dispersion

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2006
Despite the advent of drug-eluting stents in Japan, bare metal stents or conventional balloon angioplasty are still indicated in some patients needing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and in patients with acute coronary syndrome if these

When is rotational angiography superior to conventional single-plane angiography for planning coronary angioplasty? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: To investigate the value of rotational coronary angiography (RoCA) in the context of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) planning. Background: As a diagnostic tool, RoCA is associated with decreased patient irradiation and contrast ...
