Cerebral Infarction: Epidemiology, Classification, Mechanisms, Diagnosis, and Management

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Within minutes after ischemia onset, deprivation of oxygen and glucose leads to rapid ATP depletion, resulting in failure of Na+/K+‐ATPase activity and membrane depolarization. This ionic imbalance promotes uncontrolled synaptic release of glutamate and excessive activation of postsynaptic NMDA and AMPA receptors.

Rescue Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty Prior to Pulmonary Endarterectomy With Concomitant Mitral Valve Plasty in High‐Risk Operable CTEPH

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a potentially curative treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH); however, decompensated right heart failure and concomitant cardiac procedures increase the risk of postoperative mortality. We report a case of operable CTEPH with severe mitral regurgitation causing right heart failure

Consequences of the Updated Hemodynamic Criteria for the Classification of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Disease

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The revised definition of pulmonary hypertension (PH) reclassifies patients previously diagnosed with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) without pre‐capillary PH as having chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Reclassified CTEPH patients demonstrated oxygen desaturation during exercise and reduced ventilatory ...

Bridging the Distance for Ischaemic Stroke Treatment in Regional Australia: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Australian Journal of Rural Health, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background One comprehensive stroke centre (CSC), in North Queensland, Australia, supports almost 700 000 people across 750 000 km2. Access to urgent ischaemic stroke treatment is challenging for remote and regional residents, who are more likely to carry stroke risk factors and have a 17% higher stroke incidence than those in major cities ...

An oral glucose tolerance test in pregnancy and its association with future cardiovascular diseases

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 3146-3154, April 2026.
Abstract Aims/hypothesis Gestational diabetes and abnormal 100‐g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results in pregnancy are associated with type 2 diabetes, but their relationship with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is less clear. We evaluated the risk of CVD according to the number of abnormal OGTT values during pregnancy.

Pseudotumors due to pulmonary infarction [PDF]

, 1963
The preferred treatment of pulmonary infarction is nonoperative when the diagnosis can be established. In the present study, five cases are described in which failure of resolution or growth of a radiographic density resulted in eventual thoracotomy and ...

INTERNAL CAROTID ENDARTERECTOMY UNDER LOCAL ANAESTHESIA

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2004
Background. Endarterectomy of the internal carotid artery, supported by medicamental treatment, is the best method used to prevent stroke with symptomatic patients with an over 70-percent narrowing of the ipsilateral carotid artery.
