The Vascular Study Group of New England Cardiac Risk Index (VSG-CRI) predicts cardiac complications more accurately than the Revised Cardiac Risk Index in vascular surgery patients [PDF]
ObjectiveThe Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) is a widely used model for predicting cardiac events after noncardiac surgery. We compared the accuracy of the RCRI with a new, vascular surgery-specific model developed from patients within the Vascular ...

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Comparative early and late cardiac morbidity among patients requiring different vascular surgery procedures [PDF]
Purpose: The evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing vascular surgery can provide information with respect to perioperative and long-term risk for CAD-related events. However, the extent to which the required surgical procedure

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on vascular surgery practice in the United States.
BackgroundThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to widespread postponement and cancelation of elective surgeries in the United States. We designed and administered a global survey to examine the impact of COVID-19 on vascular surgeons.

A Rare Vascular Challenge: Brachial Artery Collateral Pseudoaneurysm Managed With Vein Grafting
Upper extremity pseudoaneurysms are uncommon, and involvement of collateral branches of the brachial artery is particularly rare. A 78-year-old woman without antecedent trauma presented with a new pulsatile mass and progressive dysfunction of the ...

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.

### Unruptured Aneurysms The first report of the International Study of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms (ISUIA) cited very low rates of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) for previously unruptured aneurysms.1 Data were collected retrospectively. It was difficult to reconcile these rates with those reported from prior studies, with the known sizes of ...
