Recent advances in multimodality imaging‐guided therapy in pericarditis

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Multiple imaging targets have been identified as essential biomarkers to confirm pericardial thickening, edema, neovascularization, inflammation, fibrosis/calcification, cardiac tamponade physiology, and constriction. This novel approach is called imaging‐guided therapy, which guides anti‐inflammatory therapy, assesses treatment response, assists in ...

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt creation via isolated persistent left superior vena cava: a case series

CVIR Endovascular, 2020
Background Isolated persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare vascular anatomic variant, which can be an incidental finding at the time of an endovascular procedure. Case presentation This report describes the technical success, adverse events,

Hemodialysis through persistent left superior vena cava

Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2011
We report a case of end stage renal disease patient who displayed a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) after placement of hemodialysis (HD) catheter through left internal jugular vein, as revealed by routine post-procedure X-ray chest. The diagnosis of PLSVC was confirmed by arterial blood gas, two-dimensional echocardiography, computed ...

From Failure to Success: Lithotripsy Transforms Lead Extraction in a Same‐Patient Case

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiac implantable electronic device infections often necessitate extraction, which can be complicated by calcified adhesions, leading to increased procedural risk and reduced efficacy. Given these challenges, intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has been proposed as a tool for lead extraction to aid in overcoming calcification.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Double superior vena cava and variation in pulmonary venous drainage – case report

National Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2016
During routine dissection for undergraduate students, two venous end cardiac anomalies were noted. In a male cadaver, in addition to a normal right sided superior vena cava, a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) was seen opening into the right ...

Prospective in silico trials identify combined SK and K2P channel block as an effective strategy for atrial fibrillation cardioversion

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In silico trials were conducted in 654 virtual patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) to assess the cardioversion efficacy of three pharmacological treatments: single SK and K2P channel block and combined SK+K2P channel inhibition. Left: representative virtual AF patient with the atria inside the torso.
