Finite Element Simulation Analysis of a Nickel-Titanium Alloy Patent Foramen Ovale Occluder
In this paper, a preliminary stress/strain analysis of the design structure of a nickel-titanium alloy patent foramen ovale occluder is conducted with the finite element simulation analysis method. In the analysis, solid structure modeling is carried out

Risk of decompression illness among 230 divers in relation to the presence and size of patent foramen ovale [PDF]
Background The risk of developing decompression illness (DCI) in divers with a patent foramen ovale (PFO) has not been directly determined so far; neither has it been assessed in relation to the PFO's size.

PATENT FORAMEN OVALE AND DIVING
Although patent foramen ovale (PFO) was anatomically depicted in 1513 by Leonardo da Vinci and described as a thromboembolism route in 1877, it has been ignored for a long time as a potential way to produce pathological conditions. The unifying hypothesis associated with multiple clinical issues, such as cryptogenic stroke, migraine and decompression ...

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

Migraine and vascular disease biomarkers: A population-based case-control study. [PDF]
Background The underpinnings of the migraine-stroke association remain uncertain, but endothelial activation is a potential mechanism. We evaluated the association of migraine and vascular disease biomarkers in a community-based population.

ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic surgical approaches for nasopharyngeal malignancies, including recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC) and nasopharyngeal salivary gland tumors (NSGT), have seen significant development over the last decades. Our groups have expanded the classification of nasopharyngeal endoscopic resections (NER) from type 1 to 3 to ...

ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal defects and immunodeficiency syndrome 1 (GIDID1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants in TTC7A. GIDID1 is characterized by a broad clinical spectrum ranging from very early‐onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) to multiple intestinal atresia (MIA) with or without immunological manifestations.

Recurrent Patent Foramen Ovale-Related Cerebral Infarcts Alternately Causing Bilateral Hand Paresis
Isolated hand paresis is a rare presentation of stroke, which mostly results from a lesion in the cortical hand motor area, a knob-like area within the precentral gyrus. I report the case of a patient who experienced recurrent ischemic stroke alternately

Identifying a Cardiac Source of Embolism by Transesophageal Echocardiography: Review of a 12-Year Experience [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Peripheral embolism is frequently related to a cardiac source of embolism. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a useful tool for identifying such sources.
