Journal ArticleDOI
Histology and Biaxial Mechanical Behavior of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Tissue Samples.
Francesco Q. Pancheri,Robert A. Peattie,Nithin D. Reddy,Touhid Ahamed,Wenjian Lin,Timothy D. Ouellette,Mark D. Iafrati,A. Luis Dorfmann +7 more
TL;DR: The project provides new insight into the relationships between patient natural history, histopathology, and mechanical behavior that may be useful in the development of accurate methods for rupture risk evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Dynamic Platelet Transcriptome in Obesity and Weight Loss.
Marzieh Ezzaty Mirhashemi,Ravi V. Shah,Robert R. Kitchen,Jian Rong,Aferdita Spahillari,Alexander R. Pico,Olga Vitseva,Daniel Levy,Danielle Demarco,Sajani Shah,Mark D. Iafrati,Martin G. Larson,Kahraman Tanriverdi,Jane E. Freedman +13 more
TL;DR: While there is no change in platelet aggregation function after significant weight loss, the human platelet experiences a dramatic transcriptional shift that implicates pathways potentially relevant to improved cardiometabolic risk postweight loss (eg, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease).
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review and meta-analysis of predilation and postdilation in transfemoral carotid artery stenting.
Behrad Ziapour,Marc L. Schermerhorn,Mark D. Iafrati,Luis Suarez,Shahab TourSavadkohi,Payam Salehi +5 more
TL;DR: Avoiding postdilation reduces perioperative hemodynamic instability and this benefit lasts at least up to 30 days and the data suggest that the residual stenoses above current practiced standard may provide a safer threshold to promptPostdilation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The American Venous Forum, American Vein and Lymphatic Society and the Society for Vascular Medicine expert opinion consensus on lymphedema diagnosis and treatment
Fedor Lurie,Rafael D. Malgor,Teresa L. Carman,Steven M Dean,Mark D. Iafrati,Neil M. Khilnani,Nicos Labropoulos,Thomas S. Maldonado,Peter S. Mortimer,Thomas F. O'Donnell,Joseph D. Raffetto,Stanley G. Rockson,Antonios P. Gasparis +12 more
TL;DR: Approval of experts’ opinions on the available literature on lymphedema while following the Delphi methodology demonstrated that lyMPhedema experts agree on the majority of the statements related to risk factors for lympherema, and the diagnostic workup for lypphedema patients.
Patent
Bioresorbable biopolymer stent
TL;DR: A ratcheting biopolymer stent as mentioned in this paper can be deployed on a small diameter configuration and then expanded to a predefined larger diameter configuration wherein after expansion, the ratchets mechanism locks the biopolymers stent in the expanded configuration.
