Divergent vascular courses in the submental lymph node flap revealed by cadaveric study
Vascularized submental lymph node (VSLN) flap transfer is a promising treatment for lymphedema, yet its venous anatomy remains underexplored. This study investigated variations of the submental artery and vein and the courses of hilar arteries and veins ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Numerical Modeling of Venous Outflow from the Cranial Cavity in the Supine Body Position
The hemodynamic relevance of differently located stenoses of the internal jugular veins remains undetermined. It particularly concerns nozzle-like strictures in the upper parts of these veins and stenotic jugular valves located at the end of these veins.

Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...

Practical Aspects of Nontunneled and Tunneled Hemodialysis Catheters
Nontunneled hemodialysis catheters (NTHCs) are typically used when vascular access is required for urgent renal replacement therapy. The preferred site for NTHC insertion in acute kidney injury is the right internal jugular vein followed by the femoral ...

Internal jugular vein phlebectasia
Internal jugular vein (LJV) phlebectasia is a rare form of congenital venous anomaly. Less than 50 cases have been reported in the literature world-wide. In the majority of cases the lesion was in boys and on the right side. It is a fusiform dilation of the vein without any apparent obstruction, and is believed to be due to congenital thinning of the ...

Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

A failure of internal jugular vein catheterization caused by the internal jugular vein occlusion
Central venous catheterization is frequently used as the procedure for preparation of major surgery, chemotherapy, total parenteral nutrition, and etc [1]. Usually, the catheterization sites are femoral vein, subclavian vein, and internal jugular vein (IJV).
