The non-obligatory role of endothelial cells in the relaxation of arterial smooth muscle by acetylcholine [PDF]
The concept of Endothelium Derived Relaxing Factor (EDRF), put forward by Furchgott in the earlier 80s of the past century, implies that nitric oxide (NO) produced by NO synthase (NOS) in the endothelium in response to acetylcholine (ACh) passively ...

Fostamatinib and the risk of acute aortic dissection in immune thrombocytopenia
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by platelet destruction. While most patients respond to first‐ or second‐line therapies, a small subset is multirefractory. Fostamatinib, an oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor, is a therapeutic option in these cases.

Outcomes of Early versus Delayed Endovascular Repair of Blunt Traumatic Aortic Injuries
Objectives: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has surpassed open surgical repair in the management of blunt traumatic aortic injuries (BTAIs) over the past two decades. It is a less morbid procedure associated with lower mortality. We sought to
