Incidence and Predictors of Successful Lead Extraction With Short Active Mechanical Extraction Sheaths Only

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed for malfunction or infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). Active mechanical rotational sheaths facilitate extraction and are available in short and long sizes, but it is unclear how many patients short active mechanical extraction sheaths ...

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Patent foramen ovale and thromboembolic complications [PDF]

, 2010
The foramen ovale, an atrial septal defect which is essential in the fetal circulation, remains patent through adulthood in approximately 25% of the general population and so it represents the most common persistent abnormality of fetal origin.

Recurrent Patent Foramen Ovale-Related Cerebral Infarcts Alternately Causing Bilateral Hand Paresis

Case Reports in Neurology, 2017
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

Migraine and vascular disease biomarkers: A population-based case-control study. [PDF]

, 2018
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.
