Association of Epicardial and Pericardial Adipose Tissue Volumes with Coronary Artery Calcification
Int Heart J. 2022 Nov 12. doi: 10.1536/ihj.22-006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEpicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) are anatomically close to the myocardium and may influence cardiovascular pathology. Thus, in this study, we aim to assess whether EAT and PAT volumes were associated with coronary artery calcification score (CCS) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD), especially in overweight and obese individuals.We included consecutive patients with suspected CAD in whom EAT volume, PAT volume, and CCS were measured via computed tomography between September 2015 and June...

Hidden Telltale Signs in Hyperacute Ischemic Stroke Caused by Aortic Dissection: A Case Report and Post Hoc Analysis
Conclusion: Hyperacute ischemic stroke caused by AD often hides some telltale signs. Clinicians should master basic clinical skills to exclude AD by looking for these telltale signs hidden in hyperacute ischemic stroke to avoid the fatal consequences of intravenous thrombolysis and/or cerebral angiography within the narrow window of time.

The relationship between vertebrobasilar artery calcification and intracranial atherosclerosis-related occlusion in thrombectomy
CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated that VBAC is an independent risk factor for ICAS-O in patients who underwent thrombectomy. Patients free of atrial fibrillation with VBAC have more trend to be ICAS-O.PMID:36267885 | PMC:PMC9577291 | DOI:10.3389/fneur.2022.965362

Computed tomography patterns of intracranial infarcts in a Ghanaian tertiary facility
CONCLUSION: Apart from the loss of grey-white matter differentiation, there was no significant association between the other CT scan features and sex. Generally, most of the risk factors and the CT scan features were significantly associated with increasing age.FUNDING: None declared.PMID:35919779 | PMC:PMC9334949 | DOI:10.4314/gmj.v56i1.5
