Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Is Associated With Circadian and Other Variability in Embolus Detection
Conclusions: Embolism associated with asymptomatic carotid stenosis shows circadian variation with highest rates 4–6 h before midday. This corresponds with peak circadian incidence of stroke and other vascular complications. These and ASED Study results show that monitoring frequency, duration, and time of day are important in ES detection. Introduction Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detected microembolism in the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) may help stratify the risk of stroke and other arterial disease complications in persons with advanced (≥60%) asymptomatic carotid stenosis. If so, this t...

Peridevice Leak After Left Atrial Appendage Closure: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Clinical Impact
ConclusionsThe PDL rate detected by CCTA after LAAC was high, especially in cases with a low device compression ratio (< 10%), but decreased over time. The incidence of MACE was quantitatively greater with PDL, but the difference was not statistically significant. Larger studies are needed to determine the clinical importance of PDL.RésuméIntroductionPeu d’études ont fait état des taux et des répercussions cliniques des fuites périprothétiques (FPP) après la fermeture de l’appendice auriculaire gauche (AAG) par voie percutanée.MéthodesNous avons inscrit de manière prospective tous les patients consécuti...
