Threshold of microvascular occlusion: injury size defines the thrombosis scenario [PDF]
Damage to the blood vessel triggers formation of a hemostatic plug, which is meant to prevent bleeding, yet the same phenomenon may result in a total blockade of a blood vessel by a thrombus, causing severe medical conditions. Here, we show that the physical interplay between platelet adhesion and hemodynamics in a microchannel manifests in a critical ...

Supervised Contrastive Learning to Classify Paranasal Anomalies in the Maxillary Sinus [PDF]
Using deep learning techniques, anomalies in the paranasal sinus system can be detected automatically in MRI images and can be further analyzed and classified based on their volume, shape and other parameters like local contrast. However due to limited training data, traditional supervised learning methods often fail to generalize.

ABSTRACT Although infective endocarditis (IE) during pregnancy is rare, it is associated with high maternal and fetal mortality rates. Educating pregnant women on infection prevention is essential. If IE occurs, multidisciplinary collaboration is important to determine an optimal strategy for childbirth and surgery in its successful management.

Treatment of sagittal sinus thrombosis associated with cerebral hemorrhage and intracranial hypertension. [PDF]
Two cases of complete sagittal sinus occlusion with multiple brain hemorrhages, elevated intracranial pressure, and disseminated intravascular coagulation are described. These patients were successfully managed using pentobarbital-induced coma to ameliorate intracranial pressure elevation.

Sphenoid Sinus Injury Leading Pneumocephalus as a Complication of Conventional Septoplasty
Septoplasty is the most commonly performed operation in otolaryngology. Other than the more common complications such as hemorrhage, septal hematoma and abscess, perforation and postoperative deformities, the surgeon must also be aware of the rare but ...

Nasal irrigation delivery in three post-FESS models from a squeeze-bottle using CFD [PDF]
Purpose: Nasal saline irrigation is highly recommended in patients following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) to aid the postoperative recovery. Post-FESS patients have significantly altered anatomy leading to markedly different flow dynamics from those found in pre-op or non-diseased airways, resulting in unknown flow dynamics. Methods: This

Abstract Background Heart failure (HF) is a risk factor for ischemic stroke. Cognitive impairment is very common in HF and stroke patients. Patients with HF have higher risk of developing dementia. However, there are limited studies investigating the characteristics, in‐hospital mortality and complications of stroke patients with both HF and dementia ...
