Back‐up arteriovenous fistula in peritoneal dialysis patients: a retrospective cohort study of long‐term meaningful outcomes

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Back‐up arteriovenous fistula (bAVF) is used in peritoneal dialysis (PD) to avoid haemodialysis transfer via a central venous catheter (CVC). However, no previous study examined mortality or complications associated with bAVF creation.

The Effect of 6 Months of Dietary Counselling on Sleep Outcomes Among Patients With Cardiovascular Diseases: A Randomised Controlled Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep problems are highly prevalent among patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We examined the effect of dietary counselling on sleep outcomes among patients with CVD. We performed secondary analyses within a previously conducted six‐month randomised controlled trial among patients with CVD.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...
