Association Between Carotid Plaque Characteristics and Subsequent Ischemic Cerebrovascular Events A Prospective Assessment With MRI—Initial Results

TL;DR: Among patients who initially had an asymptomatic 50% to 79% carotid stenosis, arteries with thinned or ruptured fibrous caps, intraplaque hemorrhage, larger maximum %lipid-rich/necrotic cores, and larger maximum wall thickness by MRI were associated with the occurrence of subsequent cerebrovascular events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proliferation in primary and restenotic coronary atherectomy tissue. Implications for antiproliferative therapy.

TL;DR: The response to injury in existing animal models of angioplasty may follow a very different course of events from the clinical reality in human atherosclerotic coronary arteries and may help explain why current approaches to restenosis therapy have been ineffective.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta and Resuscitative Thoracotomy in Select Patients with Hemorrhagic Shock: Early Results from the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma's Aortic Occlusion in Resuscitation for Trauma and Acute Care Surgery Registry

TL;DR: Overall, REBOA can confer a survival benefit over RT, particularly in patients not requiring CPR, and considerable additional study is required to definitively recommend RE BOA for specific subsets of injured patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new classification scheme for treating blunt aortic injury.

TL;DR: The experience in treating BAI during the past decade was used to create a classification scheme based on radiographic and clinical data and to provide clear treatment guidelines, and no patient without an external aortic contour abnormality died of their BAI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in the endovascular era

TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm to promote endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) when feasible was implemented to reduce the 30-day mortality of rAAA patients.
