Sex-Differences in Subclinical Atherosclerosis and Systemic Immune Activation/Inflammation among People with HIV in the U.S
CONCLUSIONS: Among U.S. PWH, females had a lower prevalence of plaque and NC/V-P, as well as differences in key immune/inflammatory biomarkers. Immune-plaque relationships differed by sex for D-dimer, but not other tested parameters.PREVIOUS PRESENTATION: Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI), 2022; International Workshop on HIV and Women (IWHW), 2022; AIDS Clinical Trials Group Network Meeting, 2022; REPIREVE State of the Science Meeting, 2022.CLINICALTRIALS.GOV IDENTIFIER: NCT0234429 (date of initial registration: January 22, 2015).PMID:36101518 | DOI:10.1093/cid/ciac767

Safety and feasibility study of non-invasive robot-assisted high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy for the treatment of atherosclerotic plaques in the femoral artery: protocol for a pilot study
BMJ Open. 2022 May 2;12(5):e058418. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-058418.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an atherosclerotic disease leading to stenosis and/or occlusion of the arterial circulation of the lower extremities. The currently available revascularisation methods have an acceptable initial success rate, but the long-term patency is limited, while surgical revascularisation is associated with a relatively high perioperative risk. This urges the need for development of less invasive and more effective treatment modalities. This protocol article describes a study investigating a new non-invasiv...

The effectiveness of Sufi music for mental health outcomes. A systematic review and meta-analysis of 21 randomised trials.
CONCLUSION: Sufi music may reduce anxiety of patients undergoing medical procedures like haemodialysis, coronary artery surgery, angiography, colonoscopy, bone marrow aspiration and biopsy procedures. Evidence from single studies suggests effects on depression and stress as well. However, due to methodological limitations of the studies, further, higher quality studies are required in other cultures. PMID: 33465384 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Transcranial Doppler sonography for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial arteries in people with acute ischaemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: This review provides evidence that TCD or TCCD, administered by professionals with adequate experience and skills, can provide useful diagnostic information for detecting stenosis or occlusion of intracranial vessels in people with acute ischaemic stroke, or guide the request for more invasive vascular neuroimaging, especially where CT or MR-based vascular imaging are not immediately available. More studies are needed to confirm or refute the results of this review in a larger sample of stroke patients, to verify the role of contrast medium and to evaluate the clinical advantage of the use of ultrasound. ...

Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1. Common CNS and PNS involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. Author Contributions SZ conceived the article and wrote the manuscript. DY and GT reviewed and edited the manuscript. All authors ...

Diagnostic performance of optical coherence tomography angiography in glaucoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: This suggests the diagnostic utility of OCTA in detecting glaucomatous eyes; however, further longitudinal prospective studies are welcomed to characterise vascular changes in glaucoma. PMID: 30728123 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Mechanical versus manual chest compressions for cardiac arrest.
CONCLUSIONS: The evidence does not suggest that CPR protocols involving mechanical chest compression devices are superior to conventional therapy involving manual chest compressions only. We conclude on the balance of evidence that mechanical chest compression devices used by trained individuals are a reasonable alternative to manual chest compressions in settings where consistent, high-quality manual chest compressions are not possible or dangerous for the provider (eg, limited rescuers available, prolonged CPR, during hypothermic cardiac arrest, in a moving ambulance, in the angiography suite, during preparation for extr...

Orbiting ORBITA
By ANISH KOKA, MD I’m sitting amidst a number of cardiologists to go over the most recent trials presented at the interventional cardiology conference in Denver.  The cardiology fellow presenting goes quickly through the hors de oeuvres until finally getting to the main course – ORBITA. ORBITA sought to test the very foundations interventional cardiology was built on – the simple idea that opening a stenosed coronary artery was good for patients.  The trial was a double blind randomized control trial of patients with tightly stenosed arteries who either had a stent placed or had a sham procedure.  Before the resul...

Ultrasonography for endoleak detection after endoluminal abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
CONCLUSIONS: This review demonstrates that both ultrasound modalities (with or without contrast) showed high specificity. For ruling in endoleaks, CE-CDUS appears superior to CDUS. In an endoleak surveillance programme CE-CDUS can be introduced as a routine diagnostic modality followed by CT scan only when the ultrasound is positive to establish the type of endoleak and the subsequent therapeutic management.
