Clinical Outcomes and Patient Experiences With Celiprolol Therapy in Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: The First Non‐European Cohort

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in COL3A1. European studies have shown that celiprolol may reduce the risk of life‐threatening vascular events, but outcomes in non‐European populations and the therapy's psychological impact remain unclear. We conducted

A novel rat model of pulmonary artery embolism and the application value of lung ultrasound B‐lines in early‐stage pulmonary embolism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We report a novel embolus‐induced PE rat model prepared via the inferior vena cava under ultrasound guidance. The embolus employed featured a tubular plastic casing filled with thrombus. By minimizing the contact surface between plasmin and thrombus, it effectively restrains the elevated plasmin activity in rats.

The Impact of Aging on the Anatomical Course of the Azygos Vein: A Retrospective, Computed Tomography Study

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The azygos vein (AV) is typically described as ascending vertically to the right of the vertebral column before arching anteriorly to drain into the superior vena cava. However, a small number of studies suggest that it is found leftward in older adults.

Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...
