Animal models of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Current animal models of CTEPH. Created using BioRender.com. Abstract Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare, yet life‐threatening disorder characterized by persistent pulmonary vascular obstruction and elevated pulmonary artery pressure, with progressive remodeling and subsequent right heart failure.

Drug poisonings following bariatric surgery: Case series report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Bariatric surgery alters gastrointestinal anatomy and physiology, which likely impacts upon oral medication absorption. Drug‐ and alcohol‐related deaths in this population are being increasingly reported; however, toxicological detail is lacking. Using data reported to the National Programme on Substance Use Mortality, we identified 18 deaths in people

Atherectomy With Multimodal Embolic Protection for Severely Calcified Femoropopliteal Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe calcification in femoropopliteal lesions remains a clinical challenge to achieve both the technical and long‐term success in endovascular therapy. Although atherectomy is an effective treatment for calcified lesions, it is associated with the risk of distal embolization, even with the use of embolic protection devices (EPDs), and ...

Feasibility and Safety of the ETcath200 Robotic PCI System for Complex Coronary Lesions: A Prospective Single‐Center Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background International robotic‐assisted PCI platforms such as CorPath 200 and CorPath GRX have demonstrated procedural safety and efficacy but are limited by the absence of real‐time tactile feedback and cumbersome device exchange. The ETcath200, the first domestically developed robotic PCI system in China, introduces guidewire force‐sensing

Direct Puncture of Calcified Plaque Using a Percutaneous Transcholangiography Needle in Endovascular Treatment for Superficial Femoral Artery Chronic Total Occlusion: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endovascular treatment (EVT) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions has progressed recently; however, severely calcified lesions remain difficult to treat owing to challenges in guidewire passage and limited balloon or stent expansion. We report the case of a 79‐year‐old Asian male with intermittent claudication who had previously undergone

Excessive Ostial Stent Protrusion: Evaluation of Management Strategies and Clinical Outcomes of the Side Flap Technique

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Backgrounds Accurate stent positioning in aorto‐ostial lesions remains challenging due to complex three‐dimensional anatomy, lack of optimal fluoroscopic projections, and high rates of geographic miss. Stent overhang impairs guide catheter re‐engagement and complicates future revascularization.

Successful Management of a Complex Coronary Bifurcation Lesion in Acute Coronary Syndrome Using a Free‐Metal Approach

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 56‐year‐old male with non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and a complex thrombotic lesion at the ostial left circumflex artery (LCX), extending into bifurcating marginal branches. Due to the high risk of side branch occlusion, a stentless strategy using thrombus aspiration, the reverse wire technique, and ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.
