The Value of CT-FFR in Predicting Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue
Background At present, FFR is the ＂gold standard＂ index for evaluating the function and physiology of coronary blood flow. CT-fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) reflects the hemodynamic changes of coronary artery lesions, it has higher diagnostic and ...

Brain Health Deviation Index: A Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment Biomarker for Predicting Cognitive Decline and Polyvascular Stenosis

Brain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing and quantifying brain health remains a pressing challenge, despite its importance for overall well‐being. Traditional methods that focus on isolated brain measures often fail to capture the multifaceted nature of brain health and may miss early signs of dysfunction.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.
