The incremental benefit of upfront surgery in renal cell carcinoma with venous tumor thrombus of the inferior venae cavae

open access: yesUrological Science, 2018
Background: Surgical extirpation for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with inferior venae cavae (IVC) thrombi is the standard of care. The incremental impact of upfront surgery has not been well described. Objective: We aim to quantify the overall survival (OS)

Genetics in Heterotaxy: A Case Series and Literature Review on DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Genet
Integrating trio‐based genomic sequencing with detailed clinical evaluation across seven French–Vietnamese heterotaxy cases alongside a review of 108 published patients reveals strong genotype–phenotype correlations. Variants in DNAH9, PKD1L1, MMP21, and GDF1 define a broad spectrum from isolated situs inversus to complex conotruncal heart defects and ...

Diabetes alters vascular mechanotransduction: pressure-induced regulation of mitogen activated protein kinases in the rat inferior vena cava

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2006
Background Diabetes mellitus is an important risk factor for increased vein graft failure after bypass surgery. However, the cellular and molecular mechanism(s) underlying vessel attrition in this population remain largely unexplored. Recent reports have

The heart of the matter: Right heart imaging indicators for treatment escalation in pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2023
Right heart (RH) structure and function are major determinants of symptoms and prognosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). RH imaging provides detailed information, but evidence and guidelines on the use of RH imaging in treatment decisions are ...

Age-Related Histological Changes in Vena Caval System of Human Foetus and Adult: A Comparative Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND: It has been documented that cardiac musculature is present in both venae cavae, and they contract together with the atrium, contributing to the pumping mechanism of the heart.

Vascular mechanotransduction data in a rodent model of diabetes: Pressure-induced regulation of SHP2 and associated signaling in the rat inferior vena cava

open access: yesData in Brief, 2017
The effect of diabetes on vascular mechano-transductive response is of great concern. Given the higher rate of vein graft failures associated with diabetes, understanding the multiple cellular and molecular events associated with vascular remodeling is ...

Cannulation configuration and recirculation in venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a treatment for acute respiratory distress syndrome. Femoro-atrial cannulation means blood is drained from the inferior vena cava and returned to the superior vena cava; the opposite is termed atrio ...

Anomalous Left Atrial Drainage of the Vena Cava in an Adult French Bulldog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Left atrial insertion of the cranial (i.e., superior) and caudal (i.e., inferior) venae cavae is a rare disorder in humans and is unreported in the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris).

Development and evaluation of a new biodegradable vena cava filter in a canine model

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2017
Purpose: Preliminary testing of a new biodegradable inferior vena cava filter in a canine model. Methods: The biodegradable filter consisted of two parts, a filter cone and a stent. The filter cone was constructed of six polyglycolic acid polymer strands

Do storage solutions protect endothelial function of arterialized vein graft in an experimental rat model?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background This study aims to compare the effects of storage solutions commonly used in coronary artery bypass grafting on the vascular reactivity in vein graft interposed in arterial position in syngeneic rats.
