Traversing boundaries: thrombus in transit with paradoxical embolism [PDF]

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2016
A 72-year-old male is diagnosed with paradoxical embolus after he presented with concurrent deep vein thrombosis, stroke, and multiple arterial emboli in the presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Paradoxical embolus requires the passage of a thrombus

Embolic myocardial infarction associated with patent foramen ovale: a case series

Кардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2023
A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a fairly common mild cardiac defect that causes a shunting across the atrial septum. PFO is also a known risk factor for cryptogenic stroke. Much less frequently, PFO is associated with non-cerebral systemic embolic events.

Cardiovascular Disease Meets Cancer: Exploring the Epidemiology in China and Homotherapy Targeting Intersectional Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer are leading causes of death worldwide, with overlapping risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms. This review explores shared pathways, including metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and gut microbiome alterations, highlighting dual‐benefit strategies such as lifestyle modifications and repurposed

Aberrant Mitochondrial Metabolism in Alzheimer's Disease Links Energy Stress with Ferroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Alves et al. reveal how energy loss and oxidative stress, two major features of Alzheimer's disease, are connected. Mitochondria controls the flux of the antioxidant glutathione (GSH), via facilitating both its production and consumption. Energy restriction limits GSH synthesis, conferring vulnerability to cell death by ferroptosis, implicated as a ...

Molecular Creep Induced Fatigue Rupture of Fibrin Clots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibrin networks in thrombi paradoxically exhibit low fatigue resistance despite high fracture energy, as cyclic loading triggers irreversible α‐to‐β transitions in fibrin molecules, causing molecular creep, crack propagation. Multiscale experiments, modeling reveal how nanoscale conformational damage accumulates, linking molecular disorder to ...

Successful surgical treatment of impending paradoxical embolism with pulmonary embolism and myocardial infarction

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Paradoxical embolism is a rare cause of acute arterial occlusion. This phenomenon arises when embolic material travels from the venous system crosses an abnormal shunt such as patent foramen ovale, atrial septal defects, ventricular septal ...

Repositioning Antimicrobial Peptides Against WHO‐Priority Fungi

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The growing burden of drug‐resistant fungal infections, driven by pathogens such as Candida auris, Cryptococcus neoformans, and Aspergillus fumigatus, underscores the urgent need for novel antifungal therapies. This review explores antimicrobial peptides as promising agents with membrane‐disruptive activity, immunomodulatory properties, and delivery ...

Almost a Double Whammy! Acute Pulmonary Embolism and an Impending Paradoxical Embolism

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a relatively common cardiovascular disorder with high early mortality rates, despite advances in diagnosis and treatment. The risk of mortality is quite high in case the diagnosis is missed.

Paradoxical embolism following thromboaspiration of an arteriovenous fistula thrombosis: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2010
Introduction Paradoxical embolism is an increasingly reported cause of arterial embolism. Several embolic sources have been described, but thrombosis of an arteriovenous fistula as a paradoxical emboligenic source has not, to the best of our knowledge ...
