Surgical Management of Arterial Thoracic Outlet Syndrome due to Cervical Rib in a 17-Year-Old Male With Gangrenous Ulcer on Fingertip Requiring Multiple Bypass: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Arterial thoracic outlet syndrome (ATOS) is a rare condition, affecting 1% to 5% of TOS cases, characterized by the compression of the subclavian artery, often due to anatomical anomalies like cervical ribs. Cervical ribs that are not a very common anatomical anomaly can give rise to arterial supply compromise needing surgical intervention to ...

Abstract This article investigates how Kenyan citizens access healthcare within the framework of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) reforms. Based on ethnographic fieldwork, it reconceptualizes waiting as a politically structured phenomenon rather than a simple delay. The analysis shows that UHC reforms do not eliminate waiting but instead redistribute it,

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Guidelines for Essential Trauma Care: Second Edition (2026)
Injury is a major cause of death and disability globally, with the highest burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Strengthening the organization and planning for trauma care (care of the injured) can improve care and lower mortality. In 2004, the International Association for Trauma Surgery and Intensive Care (IATSIC) and the World Health ...

Hormonal Treatment During Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion Ameliorates Brain Death Induced Inflammation
Treatment of lungs during ex vivo perfusion with 17β‐estradiol and methylprednisolone improved graft quality. In females, treated and non‐treated groups presented reduced leukocyte infiltration and only the treatment improved perfusion flow. In males, treatment improved lung function by increasing compliance, paO2, and perfusion flow.

Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...

Portal hypertension, a critical complication in chronic liver disease, has long relied on invasive hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement for definitive diagnosis. This study establishes that multifrequency three‐dimensional magnetic resonance elastography (3D‐MRE) can noninvasively quantify portal pressure, with splenic stiffness and loss ...
