Treatment of Superior Vena Cava (SVC) Syndrome and Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) Thrombosis in a Patient with Colorectal Cancer: Combination of SVC Stenting and IVC Filter Placement to Palliate Symptoms and Pave the Way for Port Implantation [PDF]
Thrombosis of the inferior vena cava is a life-threatening complication in cancer patients leading to pulmonary embolism. These patients can also be affected by superior vena cava syndrome causing dyspnea followed by trunk or extremity swelling.

Early occlusion control of the intrapericardial inferior vena cava under femoral–femoral extracorporeal circulation using a technique to prevent pulmonary embolism during nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus: two case reports [PDF]
Background: Renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus extension into the inferior vena cava occurs in approximately 5% of cases. Despite such situations, an aggressive surgical approach is recommended.

It is shown that obesity is associated with increases in hepatic METTL14 and m6A methylation of G6pc transcript. YTHDF1 and YTHDF3 bind to m6A‐marked G6pc mRNA to increase its synthesis. Hepatocyte‐specific deletion of Mettl14 decreases G6pc m6A methylation, G6pc biosynthesis, and G6pc‐mediated gluconeogenesis, alleviating glucose metabolic defects in ...

Inferior vena cava filters [PDF]
Under fluoroscopic guidance, IVC filters are placed percutaneously via the jugular or femoral vein. Current guidelines recommend use in patients with known venous thromboembolism who have an absolute contraindication to anticoagulant therapy (e.g., patients with hemorrhagic stroke or ...

The reverse portacaval shunt [PDF]
A technique has been described in which all the venous drainage of the deep femoral system is diverted through the hepatic bed by means of a reverse Eck fistula and systematic division of collaterals from the inferior vena cava and iliac veins.

The gut microbiome is a potential target for treating cardiovascular disease. It is found that prophylactic administration of Flavonifractor plautii or its metabolite desaminotyrosine (DAT) exerts pleiotropic cardioprotective effects via promoting cardiomyocyte survival and attenuating cardiac inflammation against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R ...

An Immersed Interface Method for Discrete Surfaces [PDF]
Fluid-structure systems occur in a range of scientific and engineering applications. The immersed boundary(IB) method is a widely recognized and effective modeling paradigm for simulating fluid-structure interaction(FSI) in such systems, but a difficulty of the IB formulation is that the pressure and viscous stress are generally discontinuous at the ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the Inferior Vena Cava: a case report of complete and sustained response with Trabectedin [PDF]
Inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma is a very rare tumor, accounting for only 0.5% of all soft tissue sarcomas. As the other leyomiosarcomas of vascular origin, they have a poor prognosis, and radical resection with surgical margins free of tumor is the ...

Reinforcing Stromal Cell Spheroid Through Red‐Light Preconditioning for Advanced Vascularization
This study presents a novel approach to enhance stromal cell therapy for myocardial infarction by combining OLED‐based photobiomodulation (OPBM) preconditioning with 3D spheroid culture of hADSCs. The engineered spheroids improve angiogenesis, arterialization, and cardiac function in vivo, offering a next‐generation therapeutic strategy to overcome ...
