Prominent Chiari Network as a Cause of Cyanosis in Infants: A Case Report and Implications for Pediatric Cardiology Practice

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A prominent Chiari network can cause cyanosis in infants by inducing a positional right‐to‐left atrial shunt. Accurate diagnosis enabled conservative management, delaying surgery until optimal conditions. This case emphasizes the importance of echocardiographic evaluation in differentiating cyanosis mechanisms to guide appropriate treatment in ...

Paradoxical Cerebral Fat Embolism in an Adolescent PLHA: A Convergence of Trauma, ART Induced Hypercoagulability, and Septal Heart Defect

Case Reports in Clinical Practice
Fat embolism syndrome (FES) is a life-threatening complication following long bone fractures, primarily affecting the pulmonary circulation. However, cerebral fat embolism (CFE) is a rare yet severe variant that can occur when fat emboli bypass the ...

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.

Retrograde cerebral embolism and pulmonary embolism caused by patent ductus arteriosus: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Although rare, paradoxical embolism sometimes occurs with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). This study presents a case of PDA-associated paradoxical embolism with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and pulmonary embolism (PE) following thoracoscopic ...

The Paradox of Paradoxical Embolism and Recurrent Stroke

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2014
Ischemic stroke is a complex condition with multiple possible causes, but up to 30% to 40% of patients have no identifiable source despite a “thorough” evaluation; that is, the strokes are cryptogenic.

Unrestricted kinematic alignment on the sagittal plane: Posterior tibial slope and combined flexion do not have boundaries to respect in terms of short‐term clinical outcomes and safety

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Personalized alignment in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is gaining traction as a surgical philosophy. True personalization, however, must encompass not only the coronal plane but also the sagittal and axial planes. This study evaluates influence of the Tibial Slope (PTS) and combined flexion (CF) on outcomes in TKA performed using ...

Concomitant pulmonary embolism and myocardial infarction due to paradoxical embolism across a patent foramen ovale: a case report

European Heart Journal: Case Reports, 2017
Concomitant acute myocardial infarction (MI) and pulmonary embolism (PE) is exceedingly rare. However, establishing the diagnosis early is essential, since delay in treating the patient may lead to a potential fatal outcome.

Genetic Determinants of Fatty Acid Composition in Subcutaneous and Visceral Adipose Tissue

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Fatty acids in adipose tissue are key structural and metabolic regulators of cardiometabolic health, but the genetic architecture governing depot‐specific composition in subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is not well defined.
