Prognostic Implications of Left Atrial Spontaneous Echo Contrast with Catheter Ablation of Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Patients with Left Atrial Dilation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Background: Left atrial spontaneous echo contrast (LASEC) can be detected by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) before the catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in patients with left atrial (LA) dilation.

Left ventricular thrombus [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2009
A 65-year-old man had recurrent angina pectoris eight years after a Q wave anterior myocardial infarction. He had no signs of heart insufficiency. An electrocardiogram showed a sinus rhythm, QS waves in precordial leads and intraventricular conduction delay. Catheterization demonstrated three-vessel coronary artery disease.

Pathophysiology of atherothrombosis: Mechanisms of thrombus formation on disrupted atherosclerotic plaques

open access: yesPathology international (Print), 2020
Atherothrombosis is a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity worldwide. The underlying mechanisms of atherothrombosis comprise plaque disruption and subsequent thrombus formation.

Visualizing thrombosis to improve thrombus resolution

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2021
The severity, course, and outcomes of thrombosis are determined mainly by the size and location of the thrombus, but studying thrombus structure and composition has been an important but challenging task.

Platelets and galectins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A major function of platelets is keeping the vascular system intact. Platelet activation at sites of vascular injury leads to the formation of a hemostatic plug.

Mathematical modeling of thrombus formation in idealized models of aortic dissection: Initial findings and potential applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aortic dissection is a major aortic catastrophe with a high morbidity and mortality risk caused by the formation of a tear in the aortic wall. The development of a second blood filled region defined as the “false lumen” causes highly disturbed flow ...

Left atrial enlargement and high uric acid level are risk factors for left atrial thrombus or dense spontaneous echo contrast in atrial fibrillation patients with low to moderate embolic risk assessed by CHA2DS2-VASC score

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
AimsTo investigate the correlation and predictive value of left atrial diameter and blood uric acid levels with the occurrence of left atrial thrombus or dense spontaneous echo contrast in atrial fibrillation patients with low to moderate CHA2DS2-VASc ...

Surgical treatment of giant cardiac aneurysm with pseudoaneurysm in a colon carcinoma patient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare and lethal condition associated with a high risk of rapid enlargement and rupture. It develops after transmural myocardial infarction (MI), cardiac surgery, trauma, or infection.

Segmentation, Reconstruction, and Analysis of Blood Thrombus Formation in 3D 2-Photon Microscopy Images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study the problem of segmenting, reconstructing, and analyzing the structure growth of thrombi (clots) in blood vessels in vivo based on 2-photon microscopic image data.

Thrombus in transit [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2010
A 66-year-old man presented with sudden onset of right arm weakness. Infused computed tomography revealed an acute area of occlusion in the right posterior inferior cerebral artery. Subsequent transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a large mobile mass in the left atrial cavity prolapsing across the mitral valve leaflets into the left ventricular ...
