Vertebral Artery Occlusion With Ipsilateral Weakness Due to Ischemic Stroke at the Medulla–Cervical Spinal Cord Junction: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Posterior circulation strokes can present with diverse neurological deficits, some of which challenge conventional localization principles. We report a case of a 74‐year‐old male with a history of prior right medullary infarct who presented with recurrent symptoms and was found to have a new medullary acute ischemic stroke in the setting of ...

Slow Conduction through an Arc of Block: A Basis for Arrhythmia Formation Post-Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

, 2017
Introduction The electrophysiologic basis for characteristic rate-dependent, constant-late-coupled (390 + 54 milliseconds) premature ventricular beats (PVBs) present 4–5 days following coronary artery occlusion were examined in 108 anesthetized dogs.

Safety and Feasibility of a CT‐Based Pathway for Left Atrial Appendage Assessment Prior to Inpatient Cardioversion: A Single‐Center Experience

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.
An alternative for TEE? Cardiac CT is a practical alternative for ruling out LA/LAA thrombi in hospitalized patients who need cardioversion. ABSTRACT Background Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus exclusion before cardioversion faces logistical barriers including limited availability, patient intolerance, and

A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 904-914, May 2026.
Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) is characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction from the hepatic veins to the junction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium. Ultrasound (US) and CT venography (CTV) are used as imaging techniques for the diagnosis of BCS, and We compared the diagnostic efficacy of the two modalities. The results showed that

Comparative Outcomes of ICE Versus TEE/Fluoroscopy Guidance Transseptal Puncture in LA Procedures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 3, May 2026.
ICE‐guided transseptal puncture reduces radiation exposure without compromising efficacy or safety, supporting its adoption as a valuable imaging modality in left atrial interventions. ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the comparative efficacy, safety, and radiation exposure outcomes of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE)‐guided versus TEE/fluoroscopy ...
