Minimal-invasive, video-assisted vein harvesting for cardiac and vascular surgical procedures [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1997
Harvesting of the saphenous vein is a routine procedure in coronary and peripheral vascular surgery. It is usually performed using a continuous long skin incision. Minor complications are reported in up to 24% (hematoma, wound dehiscence, infection, pain) and major problems necessitating surgical interventions (bleeding, abscess) in less than 1%. These

Systemic T Cell Receptor Profiling Reveals Adaptive Immune Activation and Potential Immune Signatures of Diagnosis and Brain Atrophy in Epilepsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Epilepsy is increasingly associated with immune dysregulation and inflammation. The T cell receptor (TCR), a key mediator of adaptive immunity, shows repertoire alterations in various immune‐mediated diseases. The unique TCR sequence serves as a molecular barcode for T cells, and clonal expansion accompanied by reduced overall TCR ...

The effect of foot orthoses on midfoot pain and the volume of bone marrow lesions in the midfoot: a randomized mechanism of action study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Foot orthoses are thought to improve pain by potentially modifying internal mechanical forces. To test this, we explored whether foot orthoses can modify patterns of bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in people with midfoot pain. Methods Forty‐two people were recruited with midfoot pain and MRI‐confirmed midfoot BMLs.
