Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for avulsion of aortic branches in a trauma patient requiring resuscitative thoracotomy: a case report

Surgical Case Reports, 2022
Background Resuscitative thoracotomy is a lifesaving procedure for trauma patients that are hemodynamically unstable. Cross-clamping of the descending thoracic aorta is an essential procedure performed during resuscitative thoracotomy in patients with ...

Fostamatinib and the risk of acute aortic dissection in immune thrombocytopenia

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by platelet destruction. While most patients respond to first‐ or second‐line therapies, a small subset is multirefractory. Fostamatinib, an oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor, is a therapeutic option in these cases.

Renal Arterial Anatomy: Implications for Normothermic Machine Perfusion in Renal Transplantation

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a novel technology that has shown potential in viability assessment and reconditioning of donor organs. Normothermic machine perfusion is technically more challenging in kidneys with multiple renal arteries (RAs).

Red blood cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase: A major player in regulating cardiovascular health

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) have traditionally been seen as simple carriers of gases and nutrients in the body. One important non‐canonical function of RBCs in the cardiovascular system is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. It has been shown that RBCs can scavenge NO, transport NO metabolites and produce NO in hypoxic conditions ...

An incomplete vascular ring causing respiratory distress

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2018
Kommerell’s diverticulum is a rare saccular aneurysmal dilation of the descending aorta. We report a case of a 3.5-year-old boy with the extremely rare combination of Kommerell’s diverticulum with a right descending aorta and proximal patent ductus ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Endothelium‐Independent Relaxation of Alkaloid Boldine in Isolated Aortas From Normotensive and Hypertensive Rats: Participation of Ca2+ Channels

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Involvement of Ca2+ channels in boldine‐induced vascular relaxation. ABSTRACT The regulation of vascular tone plays a fundamental role in blood pressure homeostasis and still represents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Boldine, a naturally occurring alkaloid from Peumus boldus, has emerged as a compound of interest due to its therapeutic ...

VERMONT: Vessel Fractional Flow Reserve (vFFR) Assessment of Stenosis Severity: A Prospective Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Vessel fractional flow reserve (vFFR) is an angiogram‐based technique validated in early studies; however, data on its real‐time diagnostic performance and integration into routine workflow remain limited. Aims The VERMONT study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and time efficiency of real‐time vFFR versus conventional wire‐based ...

11.7 AORTIC CALCIUM SCORE AFFECTS NON-INVASIVELY OBTAINED ESTIMATES OF CENTRAL BLOOD PRESSURE IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE

Artery Research, 2016
Background: We recently reported that central blood pressure (BP) obtained non-invasively in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients significantly underestimated the central BP with decreasing eGFR in comparison with invasively measured true central BP in ...
