Unusual extrusion of distal end of ventriculoperitoneal shunt: Case series with literature review

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2021
Background: Ventriculoperitoneal shunting is most common treatment for hydrocephalus. Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt has been associated with complications from cerebral ventricles to peritoneal cavity [1].

Can the Treatment of Normal-Pressure Hydrocephalus Induce Normal-Tension Glaucoma? A Narrative Review of a Current Knowledge

Medicina, 2021
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement is the most commonly used treatment of normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). It has been hypothesized that normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is caused by the treatment of NPH by using the shunt to reduce intracranial ...

One-year outcomes after transcatheter insertion of an interatrial shunt device for the management of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

, 2016
Background—Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has a complex pathophysiology and remains a therapeutic challenge. Elevated left atrial pressure, particularly during exercise, is a key contributor to morbidity and mortality.

Randomized preclinical study of machine perfusion in vascularized composite allografts

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This study was designed to identify the optimum machine perfusion parameters for preservation of limbs before transplantation, and determine whether this was better than cold storage. Normothermic machine perfusion at a pressure of 70 mmHg (NMP‐70) provided superior preservation to cold storage after transplantation.

Application of shunting inhibitory artificial neural networks to medical diagnosis

The Seventh Australian and New Zealand Intelligent Information Systems Conference, 2001, 2001
Shunting inhibitory artificial neural networks (SIANNs) are biologically inspired networks in which the neurons interact among each other via a nonlinear mechanism called shunting inhibition. Since they are high-order networks, SIANNs are capable of producing complex, nonlinear decision boundaries.
