ABSTRACT Introduction Spinal cord infarction (SCI) is a rare but devastating myelopathy, characterized by a high disability rate and an unfavorable prognosis. It has often been underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed as idiopathic transverse myelitis (ITM). This study aimed to describe the clinical features, radiological biomarkers, treatments, and functional ...

An investigation into stent expansion using numerical and experimental techniques [PDF]
Extensive finite element analyses have been carried out by researchers to investigate the difference in the mechanical loading induced in vessels stented with various different stent designs and the influence of this loading on restenosis outcome.

Anomalous branching order of the superior and lateral thoracic arteries
The superior thoracic and lateral thoracic arteries usually arise from the axillary artery as the first and second branches, respectively. Although anomalies have been described, no reports of a reversal of the order of origin have been found.

Rapamycin impairs endothelial cell function in human internal thoracic arteries. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Definitive fate of the coronary endothelium after implantation of a drug-eluting stent remains unclear, but evidence has accumulated that treatment with rapamycin-eluting stents impairs endothelial function in human coronary arteries.

Clinical Validation of Plasma p‐217tau in Neurological Diseases
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

Recycling thoracic arteries for redo coronary artery bypass grafting: Long-term follow-up
Redo coronary artery bypass graft (redo CABG) procedures are a surgical challenge, especially when one or both internal thoracic arteries (ITAs) have been previously harvested. The lack of available ITA grafts at reoperation might jeopardize the long-

Neurovascular Contacts in the Pathophysiology of Neuralgic Amyotrophy: An Observational Study
ABSTRACT Objective Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a prevalent, monophasic, multifocal immune‐mediated neuropathy. A distinctive characteristic of the disease is the occurrence of nerve or fascicle constrictions and torsions (NA‐associated focal nerve lesions, NAFL). The pathophysiology underlying this phenomenon remains to be fully elucidated.
