Heterogeneity of Treatment Effects in an Analysis of Pooled Individual Patient Data From Randomized Trials of Device Closure of Patent Foramen Ovale After Stroke.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2021
Importance Patent foramen ovale (PFO)-associated strokes comprise approximately 10% of ischemic strokes in adults aged 18 to 60 years. While device closure decreases stroke recurrence risk overall, the best treatment for any individual is often unclear.

Advances in the management of cardioembolic stroke associated with patent foramen ovale

open access: yesBritish medical journal, 2022
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) describes a valve in the interatrial septum that permits shunting of blood or thrombotic material between the atria. PFOs are present in approximately 25% of the healthy population and are not associated with any pathology in ...

CT Diagnosis of Paradoxical Embolism via a Patent Foramen Ovale in a Patient with a Pulmonary Embolism and Prominent Eustachian Valve

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2021
While there is a high prevalence of patent foramen ovale in adults, paradoxical embolism via a patent foramen ovale is rare. Previous echocardiographic studies indicated that paradoxical embolism might only occur in patients with high-risk features of ...

Morphometric measurements and morphology of foramen ovale in dry human skulls and its relations with neighboring osseous structures

open access: yesMedicine Science, 2021
The importance of the location of the foramen ovale (FO) is particularly evident in external approaches to the skull base. Neighboring structures are of great importance in surgical interventions such as approaches used for trigeminal neuralgia ...

We recently have studied the cranial nerve foraniina in American specimens of the oldest of the Equidae, the early Eocene Hyracotherium (eohippus). Our description will not be published in its present form since, during the summer of 1953, a party from the Anierican Museum of Natural History excavated the first undistorted eohippus skulls ever found in
