Acute Mastoiditis Complicated with Concomitant Bezold’s Abscess and Lateral Sinus Thrombosis
Bezold’s abscess is a very rare extracranial complication of acute mastoiditis. Lateral sinus thrombosis is another intracranial complication of acute mastoiditis that can occur, but there are only few reports of concomitant ispilateral Bezold’s abscess ...

A continuum model for the unfolding of von Willebrand Factor [PDF]
von Willebrand Factor is a mechano-sensitive protein circulating in blood that mediates platelet adhesion to subendothelial collagen and platelet aggregation at high shear rates. Its hemostatic function and thrombogenic effect, as well as susceptibility to enzymatic cleavage, are regulated by a conformational change from a collapsed globular state to a

Uncertainty quantification of a thrombosis model considering the clotting assay PFA-100 [PDF]
Mathematical models of thrombosis are currently used to study clinical scenarios of pathological thrombus formation. Most of these models involve inherent uncertainties that must be assessed to increase the confidence in model predictions and identify avenues of improvement for both thrombosis modeling and anti-platelet therapies.

Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Associated With Dural Sinus Thrombosis -Case Report-
A 32-year-old man presented with a rare case of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) associated with dural sinus thrombosis (DST) manifesting as severe postural headache which was relieved by lying down. Initial cerebrospinal fluid pressure was low. He was treated with hydration and rest under a diagnosis of SIH.

Recent Advances in Computational Modeling of Thrombosis [PDF]
The study of thrombosis is crucial to understand and develop new therapies for diseases like deep vein thrombosis, diabetes related strokes, pulmonary embolism etc. The last two decades have seen an exponential growth in studies related to the blood clot formation using computational tools and through experiments.

Background Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) locus has been reported in tumor tissue. But the mutation was never reported in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) before.

The Significance of Subperiosteal Abscess Volume in Acute Mastoiditis
Both needle aspiration and I&D are safe methods to reduce the infective and inflammatory load of subperiosteal abscess due to acute mastoiditis and provide pus for culture. Higher volumes (~3 cm3 and more) should be managed initially with cortical mastoidectomy since the risk of no improvement following needle aspiration or I&D is higher.

A Nonlinear Mechanics-based Virtual Coiling Method For Intracranial Aneurysm [PDF]
Enodvascular coils treat intracranial aneurysms (IAs) by causing them to occlude by thrombosis. Ideally, coiled IAs eventually occlude in the long-term. However, 20.8% are found incompletely occluded at treatment follow-up. Computer simulations of coiling and its effect on aneurysmal flow could help clinicians predict treatment outcomes a priori, but ...
