Parameter Study of Hemodynamics Simulation at Internal Carotid Stenosis

Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008
Background and purpose: Stenting is one of the treatment options for carotid artery stenosis. To show the effectiveness of the treatment, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been performed for the last several decades.

Interventional Radiology Management of Renal Artery Stenosis After Kidney Transplant: Single-Center Experience and Management Strategies

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: The course of treatment for renal artery stenosis following renal transplantation depends on the severity of the condition. Mild cases are typically managed medically, while more significant stenosis with flow limitation and graft ...

Development and validation of a novel scoring model for predicting underlying intracranial atherosclerosis prior to endovascular treatment in acute posterior circulation large-vessel occlusion

Frontiers in Neurology
Background and objectiveDetermining the cause of occlusion prior to endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke caused by large-vessel occlusion (LVO) is helpful for developing a procedure strategy.

Thrombolytic Recanalization of Carotid Arteries Is Highly Dependent on Degree of Stenosis, Despite Sonothrombolysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundStroke associated with acute carotid occlusion is associated with poor effectiveness of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) thrombolysis and poor prognosis. Rupture of atherosclerotic plaques resulting in vascular occlusions may occur on plaques,

Antiphospholipid antibodies positivity as a potential risk factor for restenosis following arteriovenous fistula stenting in hemodialysis patients: a pilot study

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThe arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis. AVF stenosis is a common complication, often requiring balloon angioplasty. For recurrent stenosis, AVF stenting may be an option.

Tratamento endovascular da doença obstrutiva carotídea em pacientes de alto risco: resultados imediatos Endovascular treatment of carotid obstructive disease in high risk patients: immediate results

Jornal Vascular Brasileiro, 2006
OBJETIVO: Tratamento endovascular - angioplastia carotídea com stent (ACS) - tem se mostrado como opção atual no tratamento da estenose da artéria carótida em pacientes considerados de alto risco para endarterectomia de carótida (ECA).

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

Impact of Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage on Outcome After Endovascular Stroke Treatment

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) achieves high rates of recanalization in acute large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke, but functional recovery remains heterogeneous. While symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) has been well studied, the prognostic impact of asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (aICH) after EVT is less certain ...

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Mitral Stenosis [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2017
The decrease in the incidence of acute rheumatic fever in western countries has led to a sharp decrease in the incidence of mitral stenosis. This decrease also modifies the clinical presentation and mitral stenosis is now encountered in older patients who have severe impairment of valve anatomy.
