Apixaban for Anticoagulation after Robotic Mitral Valve Repair
CONCLUSIONS: Anticoagulation with apixaban after minimally invasive robotic MVRep is safe and has similar rates of bleeding and thromboembolism compared to patients treated with warfarin.PMID:35973484 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.07.045

Technical improvements in carotid revascularization based on the mechanism of procedural stroke.
In conclusion, this review provides an overview of the pathophysiological mechanism of stroke following carotid revascularization (both CAS and CEA) and of the technical improvements that have contributed to reducing this stroke risk. PMID: 30827087 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Temporary oral anticoagulation after MitraClip - a strategy to lower the incidence of post-procedural stroke?
CONCLUSIONS: Temporary oral anticoagulation might be a strategy to reduce the incidence of stroke within the first 30 days after the MitraClip procedure. Bleeding events were not significantly altered due to temporary oral anticoagulation. PMID: 30650019 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

O-027 the barrel vrd™ vascular reconstruction device for the treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms
ConclusionsThe results demonstrate that the Barrel VRD device is new, effective tool for the endovascular treatment of wide neck bifurcation aneurysms. The main advantage of the Barrel VRD™ is to avoid the use of 2 stents in a Y-configuration for bifurcation aneurysm neck reconstruction.DisclosuresM.

Loading doses of aspirin and clopidogrel prior to Enterprise stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysm-a pilot study (P3.117)
Conclusions: Loading dose of antiplatelet in Enterprise stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysm is not only safe and feasible but associated with good clinical outcome. Therefore, loading doses antiplatelets is an alternative option for patients who are candidates for stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysm.Disclosure: Dr. Lodi has nothing to disclose.

P-008 Loading Doses of Aspirin and Clopidogrel Prior to Enterprise Stent-assisted Repair of Intracranial Aneurysm-A Single Center Experience
Conclusions Using loading doses of aspirin and clopidogrel in Enterprise stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysm is not only safe and feasible but associated with good clinical outcome. Therefore, loading doses of aspirin and clopidogrel is an alternative option for patients who are candidates for stent-assisted repair of intracranial aneurysm. Disclosures Y. Lodi: None. V.
