May-Thurner Syndrome as a Rare Cause of Paradoxical Embolism in a Patient with Patent Foramen Ovale

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2018
May-Thurner syndrome is an underrecognized anatomical variant that can lead to increased propensity for venous thrombosis in the lower extremities. We present a case of a 67-year-old female who presented with transient ischemic attack.

First evaluation of a novel pulsatile LVAD: Feasibility and haemodynamic impact in acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The pulsatile ventricular assist platform (pVAP) was connected to a membrane pump in six large swine models. The system, driven by a conventional intra‐aortic balloon pump console (IABP), was utilized to drain left atrial blood during systole and to eject the collected blood back into the ascending aorta during diastole.

Complete Resolution of Right Atrial Free-floating Thrombus After Warfarin Therapy in Chemotherapy-induced Cardiomyopathy: a Case Report [PDF]

, 2016
Free-floating right heart thrombus is a rare phenomenon and has dismal rognosis. The optimal management of free-floating right thrombus remains controversial with no clear consensus. We present a case of right atrial free-floating thrombus in 56-year-old

Structural design and property regulation of organic polymers for photocatalytic synthesis of H2O2

InfoScience, EarlyView.
Photocatalytic synthesis of H2O2 offers a sustainable approach. Photocatalytic efficiency depends critically on interfacial electron transfer kinetics and spatial charge separation. Herein, we systematically analyze key factors governing photogenerated carrier dynamics and propose engineered strategies to optimize performance, thereby providing design ...

Geochronology of the Whittlesey sedimentary succession, eastern England: The ‘Pompeii’ of the British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...

Nanotechnology in Skin Cancer Therapy: Recent Progress in Targeted Delivery

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skin cancer, encompassing melanoma and non‐melanoma types, remains a significant public health concern globally. Conventional therapies—such as surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy—are constrained by poor skin penetration, systemic toxicity, and high recurrence rates.

Undiagnosed patent foramen ovale: a rare cause for acute pulmonary embolism and cryptogenic stroke

Asian Journal of Internal Medicine
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a congenital cardiac anomaly found in 25-30% of the population. Though often asymptomatic, it may lead to paradoxical embolism and cryptogenic stroke.
