Can Ultrasound‐Guided in‐Plane Puncture Technique Enhance the Precision of Femoral Artery Access? The Randomized PARFEM Trial

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ultrasound‐guided puncture of the common femoral artery (CFA) is assumed to be more precise than conventional techniques without ultrasound. However, previous comparative studies have shown partly contradictory results with regard to success of ultrasound‐guided puncture so that this method is not yet standard in transfemoral ...

Full-core fuel analysis of a soluble boron-free SMR: Pellet-cladding interaction issue and enhancing fuel safety through loading pattern design

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
The full-core fuel behavior of the Soluble Boron-Free (SBF) Small Modular Reactor (SMR) was analyzed and compared with conventional pressurized water reactors (PWRs) and Soluble Boron-Using (SBU) SMRs to evaluate unique pellet-cladding interaction (PCI ...

Local Intracoronary Eptifibatide versus Mechanical Aspiration in Patients with Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2014
Objectives. We compared local delivery of intracoronary eptifibatide via perfusion catheter to thrombus aspiration in primary PCI. Background. Perfusion catheter increases local concentration of the drugs at the culprit site and prolongs their residency ...

Severe Vasoplegic Syndrome Treated with Angiotensin II and Hemoadsorption Therapy after Cardiac Surgery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The main pathophysiology mechanism of VS includes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome due to surgical trauma, release of pro‐inflammatory mediators caused by blood contact with foreign surfaces of heart‐lung machine (pump and tubing)

Breaking the Barrier: Unraveling the No‐Reflow Phenomenon in Cardiovascular Medicine

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The no‐reflow phenomenon is a stubborn and often devastating complication in cardiovascular medicine, where blood flow is restored to an artery, yet the microvasculature remains unresponsive. First identified in 1967, this phenomenon has haunted clinicians and researchers alike, particularly in the context of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Enhancement effects of chicken interleukin-2 on immune responses of H₅ subtype avian influenza virus vaccines

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2005
In order to boost immune response of conventional vaccines, investigation was made on immunoadjuvants-eukaryotic expression plasmid (pCI-IL-2) and recombinant chicken IL-2 (rChIL-2) expressed in E. coli. The adjuvants were coadministrated with H5 subtype

Novel Non‐Hyperemic Coronary Physiology Indices for Vessel Longitudinal Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Physiological pattern of coronary artery disease, whether focal or diffuse, is critical in guiding physicians during the decision‐making process for percutaneous coronary interventions. Aims This study introduces two novel non‐hyperemic coronary physiology indices designed for longitudinal vessel analysis.

Safety and feasibility of rotational atherectomy (RA) versus conventional stenting in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background and aim Interventional cardiologists face challenges in managing chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions, with conflicting results when comparing rotational atherectomy (RA) to conventional PCI.

Drug‐Coated Balloon‐Based Versus Drug‐Eluting Stent‐Only Treatment for Large Vessel Coronary Artery Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐coated balloon (DCB) treatment has shown outcomes comparable to drug‐eluting stent (DES) in small vessel coronary disease. However, evidence for its application in large vessel coronary artery disease (CAD) remains limited. Aims This study evaluated the clinical impact of DCB‐based percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in ...

Drug-Eluting Stents in Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: Cost Effectiveness and Clinical Outcomes

Advances in Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Multivessel coronary artery disease is more often treated either with coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting.
