Serum inflammatory factors such as MMP-9 are associated with post-percutaneous transluminal angioplastyacute myocardial infarction in coronary heart disease patients complicated by lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans
This study shows a significant correlation between the changes of serum IFs (MMP-9, hs-CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α) and post-PTA AMI in ASO patients complicated by CHD. Patients with upregulated post-PTA levels of the above Ifs in serum are at an elevated risk of developing AMI, and active and effective control will help to prevent AMI.PMID:38279498 | DOI:10.14715/cmb/2023.69.15.6 (Source: Cellular and Molecular Biology)

A 4-year tunneled hemodialysis catheter malpositioned into the azygos vein and how to remedy the hemodialysis circuit
J Vasc Access. 2024 Jan 10:11297298231223108. doi: 10.1177/11297298231223108. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMispositioning in the azygos vein is a rare but hazardous complication of central venous catheterization. A patient was admitted for a dysfunctional hemodialysis tunneled cuffed catheter (TCC) placed in the azygos vein for 4 years. Computed tomography angiography revealed multiple sites of occlusion, including the superior vena cava (SVC), right and left innominate veins (IVs), and right femoral vein. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and a TCC replacement based on a segment-by-segment recanalizing strategy were ...

Comparison of ultrasound features and lesion sites in dysfunctional arteriovenous fistula
This study aimed to investigate ultrasound features of arteriovenous fistula stenosis and their relationship with primary patency after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (post-intervention primary patency) and compare this classification with that using lesion location. Hemodialysis patients who underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for arteriovenous fistula stenosis from July 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Lesions (excluding inflow arteries) were categorized into five groups based on ultrasound features, and the clinical characteristics and risk factors affecting the ...
