A Retrospective Study of Adult and Pediatric D‐Dimer Tests to Identify Opportunities for Improved Utilization

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction D‐dimers are produced by lysis of cross‐linked fibrin. In children, D‐dimer testing is used to evaluate disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and some inflammatory states, but its use is not validated for screening or ruling out suspected venous thromboembolic events (VTE).

Technical Challenges When Performing Ultrasound‐Guided Peripheral Intravenous Placement in Children

Pediatric Anesthesia, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 135-144, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Ultrasound (US) guidance has become an essential skill for peripheral intravenous (PIV) placement in children. It may be used as a primary approach or as a rescue technique after failed attempts, particularly in children with difficult intravenous access (DiVA).

Programmable Compliance in Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts by Design of Melt‐Electrowritten Scaffold Architectures for In Situ Tissue Engineering

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 2, 14 January 2026.
Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in a Patient with Acute Thrombosis of Saphenous Vein Graft and Patent Native Coronary Artery: Which is the Vessel to Approach?

AIMS Medical Science, 2015
We describe a case of a patient with a clinical history of coronary artery disease, previously treated by coronary surgery and, one year later, by percutaneous coronary intervention plus stenting for sub-occlusive disease of the saphenous vein graft to ...

Ventricular Fibrillation Due to Aortocoronary Vein Graft Spasm During Angiography

JACC: Case Reports, 2021
A 69-year-old man underwent coronary angiography 7 years after coronary artery bypass. Saphenous vein graft spasm was observed during contrast injection, resulting in ventricular fibrillation. Angiography 6 years later showed graft patency.

Predictive haemodynamics in a one-dimensional human carotid artery bifurcation. Part II: application to graft design [PDF]

, 2008
A Bayesian surrogate modelling technique is proposed that may be able to predict an optimal bypass graft configuration for patients suffering with stenosis in the internal carotid artery (ICA). At the outset, this statistical technique is considered as a

Saphenous Vein Graft Aneurysm [PDF]

Circulation, 2000
A58-year-old white woman who had undergone 3-vessel coronary artery bypass graft surgery in 1988 presented with a 5-month history of chest pressure at rest. At the time of her coronary artery bypass operation, the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) was used to graft the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD).

Naples Prognostic Score and Clinical Outcomes After PCI for Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Naples Prognostic Score (NPS), a composite index incorporating inflammatory and nutritional markers, has emerged as a potential prognostic tool in various cardiovascular conditions; however, no meta‐analysis has yet pooled the available evidence to comprehensively assess its prognostic utility. Objectives To evaluate the association

Femoro-Popliteal Bypass Above Knee with Saphenous Vein vs Synthetic Graft

Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2008
There is still debate whether sintethic graft (polytetrafluoroethylene or Dacron) is equivalent to vein as bypass graft material for the above-knee femoropopliteal bypass.
