Internal Jugular Vein Phlebectasia in a Child: A Case Report

Oman Medical Journal, 2019
Neck swellings that appear on straining, crying, and Valsalva maneuver are usually suggestive of laryngocele. Phlebectasia of jugular veins can cause a similar sign but is rare compared to laryngocele.

Ligation of the Jugular Veins Does Not Result in Brain Inflammation or Demyelination in Mice

PLoS ONE, 2012
An alternative hypothesis has been proposed implicating chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency (CCSVI) as a potential cause of multiple sclerosis (MS). We aimed to evaluate the validity of this hypothesis in a controlled animal model.

A unique variation of the jugular veins and its clinical significance

Folia Morphologica
The authors report a rare variation of the anterior jugular and internal jugular veins in a 78-year-old male donor. An enlarged and curved left anterior jugular vein (AJV) was formed as the continuation of the left common facial vein (CFV).

Ultrasound Guided Placement of Single-Lumen Peripheral Intravenous Catheters in the Internal Jugular Vein [PDF]

, 2018
Introduction: The peripheral internal jugular (IJ), also called the “easy IJ,” is an alternative to peripheral venous access reserved for patients with difficult intravenous (IV) access.

From In‐Silico Optimized Microfabrication to Experimental Validation: Engineering a Tridimensional Epi‐Intraneural Interface

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An epi‐intraneural interface is developed through in silico optimization and a novel tridimensional microfabrication pipeline. The device integrates penetrating and epineural contacts on a flexible substrate. Mechanical, electrochemical, and in vivo testing in rat and pig reveal robust implantation, low‐threshold activation, and site‐dependent ...

Engineered ETS1‐Nanoconjugate Restores Immune Homeostasis through Dual Immune‐Vascular Modulation in Relapsing and Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The biomimetic nanoplatform IMNP (ETS1 pDNA/PBAE@ITP‐MM) undergoes targeted disassembly at inflammatory vascular sites to release the ETS1 plasmid (pETS1). This release initiates a cascade of effects that inhibit pathogenic pathways and support immune homeostasis. (Abbreviations: EndMT, endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition; EC, endothelial cell; TC, T
