Syncope in Elderly People: A Threatening Presentation of Pulmonary Embolism: A Case Report [PDF]
age. Its prognosis is largely unpredictable, pending the origin of the sudden loss of consciousness. We report a case of an old woman affected by severe chronic heart failure, who died soon after the development of an episode of syncope, which was ...

Fatality rates and use of systemic thrombolysis in pregnant women with pulmonary embolism [PDF]
AIMS: Data on the early course and use of systemic thrombolysis in pregnant women with pulmonary embolism associated or not with haemodynamic failure are scarce.

Acute Pulmonary Embolism: Focus on the Clinical Picture
Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is characterized by numerous clinical manifestations which are the result of a complex interplay between different organs; the symptoms are therefore various and part of a complex clinical picture.

Experimental study of a novel mouse model of tibial shaft fracture combined with blunt chest trauma
Novel animal models showed the same pathological mechanism and imaging characteristics as those of patients with multiple trauma. Our model is useful for studying whether blocking or interfering with cytokine responses is beneficial in the treatment of multiple trauma patients.

Fibrinolysis for patients with intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND The role of fibrinolytic therapy in patients with intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism is controversial. METHODS In a randomized, double-blind trial, we compared tenecteplase plus heparin with placebo plus heparin in normotensive patients ...

Unilateral, minimally invasive, renal arterial embolization and delayed contralateral nephrectomy was described in cats as a novel remnant kidney model of chronic kidney disease using two doses of embolic particles. Renal function declined and characteristic histopathological markers of kidney disease were present 6 months after the embolism procedure.

Automatic Detection of Pulmonary Embolism using Computational Intelligence [PDF]
This article describes the implementation of a system designed to automatically detect the presence of pulmonary embolism in lung scans. These images are firstly segmented, before alignment and feature extraction using PCA. The neural network was trained using the Hybrid Monte Carlo method, resulting in a committee of 250 neural networks and good ...

Computer Aided Detection for Pulmonary Embolism Challenge (CAD-PE) [PDF]
Rationale: Computer aided detection (CAD) algorithms for Pulmonary Embolism (PE) algorithms have been shown to increase radiologists' sensitivity with a small increase in specificity. However, CAD for PE has not been adopted into clinical practice, likely because of the high number of false positives current CAD software produces.

Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism During Pregnancy
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is among the most common causes of maternal death in developed countries (1, 2). A potential explanation, besides the fact that pregnancy is associated with an increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE), is that diagnosing PE

Longitudinal Proteomic Profiling of Cognition across an Aerobic Exercise Intervention
The physiological basis of cognitive decline remains largely uncharacterized. We identified a protein panel signature, in living humans, that correlates to improvement in neurocognition over a period of 5 years. Our signature is composed of complement proteins, coagulation cascade, and extracellular matrix regulators.
