The role of drug-coated balloons in endovascular interventions [PDF]
The drug coated balloons are evolution in treatment of clotted blood vessels. The era of interventional endovascular medicine began with balloon dilatation, further progress represented bare metal stents and after that drug eluting stents.

Hemodynamic effects of larger volume intra-aortic balloon pump during high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions [PDF]
Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention in high-risk patients (HRPCI) is associated with increased risk of complications. Mechanical circulatory support devices, including intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) may bridge patient safely throughout the ...

Commonly applied positive end-expiratory pressures do not prevent functional residual capacity decline in the setting of intra-abdominal hypertension: a pig model [PDF]
Introduction Intra-abdominal hypertension is common in critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The optimal ventilation strategy remains unclear in these patients.

Cardiac stunning during haemodialysis:the therapeutic effect of intra-dialytic exercise [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular risk is elevated in end-stage renal disease. Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is linked to repetitive transient ischaemia occurring during haemodialysis (HD). Cardiomyocyte ischaemia results in 'cardiac stunning', evidenced by

Intra-Inter Subject Self-Supervised Learning for Multivariate Cardiac Signals
Learning information-rich and generalizable representations effectively from unlabeled multivariate cardiac signals to identify abnormal heart rhythms (cardiac arrhythmias) is valuable in real-world clinical settings but often challenging due to its ...

Clefted Equilibrium Shapes of Superpressure Balloon Structures [PDF]
This thesis presents a numerical and analytical study of the clefted equilibrium shape of superpressure balloon structures. Lobed superpressure balloons have shown a tendency to deploy into unexpected asymmetric shapes, hence their design has to strike a

Clinical intramuscular thymus transplantation yields only short‐lived efficacy and marginal therapeutic benefits. Benefiting from the spleen's intrinsic strengths—rapid vascular perfusion, abundant developmental factors, and resident progenitors—the intrasplenic thymic grafts achieve robust thymic regeneration and substantial T‐cell reconstitution ...
