MEW/PVA‐MA Hydrogel Vascular Grafts: Enhancing Hemocompatibility and Endothelialization

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A biomimetic vascular graft combining biofunctionalized PVA‐MA hydrogels with a MEW scaffold is developed for small‐diameter applications. Gel‐MA and Hep‐MA incorporation enhances endothelialization and hemocompatibility, respectively, targeting the acute biological responses.

Surgical Treatment of Jejunal Artery Aneurysm

EJVES Short Reports, 2018
Introduction: A jejunal artery aneurysm (JAA) is rare and has few specific symptoms. Endovascular repair is widely used in the treatment of jejunal artery aneurysms; however, some patients still require open repair.

A Meta‐Analysis and Simplified Nomenclature for Diagonal Coronary Artery and Ramus Intermedius Across Adult and Pediatric Hearts

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomical descriptions of left‐sided oblique coronary branches remain inconsistent, hindering imaging interpretation and surgical planning. To quantify the prevalence, branching patterns and morphometry of the ramus intermedius (RI) and diagonal branches, and propose a unified nomenclature.

The Thigh Saphenous Vein Versus the Calf Saphenous Vein: Searching for the Optimal Conduit for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The quality of saphenous vein (SV) grafts can vary depending on the site from which they are harvested. However, few studies have compared SV grafts harvested from the thigh with those harvested from the calf to explore which is more appropriate for use in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). In this study, we evaluated the graft

Deep Vein Thrombosis in Critically Ill Patients with COVID‐19 Pneumonia

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The risk of major venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients with COVID‐19 is high but varies with disease severity. Estimate the incidence of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in critically ill hospitalized patients with COVID‐19, validate the Wells score for DVT diagnosis, and determine patients' prognosis.

Saphenous vein graft aneurysm formation in a patient with idiopathic multiple aneurysms

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2018
True aneurysmal vein graft dilation is rare, and its etiology remains speculative. However, systemic dilation diathesis is regarded as a risk factor. We herein report a case of a rapidly expanding aneurysm in a great saphenous vein graft, resulting in ...
