Manage your risk of carotid artery disease
Carotid artery disease occurs when the blood vessels supplying your brain and head, known as carotid arteries, are damaged or blocked by fatty deposits. These deposits contain cholesterol that organizes as a plaque, which clogs or blocks the carotid arteries. This is similar to coronary artery disease, which reduces blood flow to your heart. This blockage in blood vessels increases your risk of stroke  — a medical emergency that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is…

Multi-Channel FES Gait Rehabilitation Assistance System Based on Adaptive sEMG Modulation
This study proposes a multi-channel FES gait rehabilitation assistance system based on adaptive myoelectric modulation. The proposed system collects sEMG of the vastus lateralis muscle on the non-affected side to predict the sEMG values of four targeted lower-limb muscles on the affected side using a bidirectional long short-term memory (BILSTM) model. Next, the proposed system modulates the real-time FES output frequency for four targeted muscles based on the predicted sEMG values to provide muscle force compensation. Fifteen healthy subjects were recruited to participate in an offline model-building experiment conducted ...

Cerebral embolic protection during transcatheter heart interventions
EuroIntervention. 2023 Sep 18;19(7):549-570. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00166.ABSTRACTStroke remains a devastating complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), with the incidence of clinically apparent stroke seemingly fixed at around 3% despite TAVR's significant evolution during the past decade. Embolic showers of debris (calcium, atheroma, valve material, foreign material) are captured in the majority of patients who have TAVR using a filter-based cerebral embolic protection device (CEPD). Additionally, in systematic brain imaging studies, the majority of patients receiving TAVR exhibit new cerebral lesions...

Vasculitis associated with adenosine deaminase 2 deficiency: at the crossroads between Beh çet's disease and autoinflammation. A viewpoint
Reumatismo. 2023 Sep 18;75(3). doi: 10.4081/reumatismo.2023.1578.ABSTRACTAdenosine deaminase 2 deficiency (DADA2) is a rare monogenic vasculopathy caused by loss-of-function homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in ADA2, formerly CECR1 (cat eye syndrome chromosome region 1) gene. The DADA2 phenotype is widely heterogeneous, and patients may present with fever, weight loss, livedo reticularis/racemosa, digital ischemia, cutaneous ulceration, peripheral neuropathy, abdominal pain, bowel perforation, and portal or nephrogenic hypertension. More specific manifestations include early-onset ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke...

Perceived Level of Life Enjoyment and Risk of Developing Disabling Dementia: The Japan Public Health Center-Based Study
DISCUSSION: A higher level of life enjoyment was associated with a lower risk of disabling dementia, particularly in the low-medium mental stress group. This finding suggests the importance of having life enjoyment by managing mental stress for reducing risk of disabling dementia.PMID:37718836 | DOI:10.1093/geronb/gbad129

Single-center experience of endovascular treatment for patients with progressive posterior circulation cerebral infarction exceeding 24 h
CONCLUSION: In patients with progressive posterior circulation cerebral infarction caused by vertebral basilar artery occlusion, ET is effective and safe even if the time from onset to puncture exceeds 24 h.PMID:37719319 | PMC:PMC10505061 | DOI:10.2478/abm-2023-0046

Atherosclerosis as a Risk Factor for IBD: A Population-Based Case-Control Study
CONCLUSIONS: A history of an atherosclerotic-related condition is associated with increased odds of developing IBD, particularly among older adults. Future studies should investigate whether drugs targeting atherosclerotic-related inflammation may prevent IBD in higher-risk individuals.PMID:37721310 | DOI:10.14309/ajg.0000000000002502

Understanding the Link Between Adult Asthma and Coronary Artery Disease: A Narrative Review
Cureus. 2023 Aug 17;15(8):e43621. doi: 10.7759/cureus.43621. eCollection 2023 Aug.ABSTRACTAsthma is a common pathology worldwide that occurs due to chronic inflammation of the respiratory airways. Persistent pulmonary inflammation leads to low-grade systemic inflammation, influencing blood vessels and triggering coronary artery disease (CAD) events. This review's objectives include discussing the susceptible population for CAD, the mechanism underlying CAD creation in asthma patients, the characteristics of asthma, and the influence of anti-asthmatic medications on CAD development. Adult-onset asthma is strongly linked to ...

A 96-wells fluidic system for high-throughput screenings under laminar high wall shear stress conditions
Microsyst Nanoeng. 2023 Sep 15;9:114. doi: 10.1038/s41378-023-00589-x. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTThe ability of endothelial cells to respond to blood flow is fundamental for the correct formation and maintenance of a functional and hierarchically organized vascular network. Defective flow responses, in particular related to high flow conditions, have been associated with atherosclerosis, stroke, arteriovenous malformations, and neurodegenerative diseases. Yet, the molecular mechanisms involved in high flow response are still poorly understood. Here, we described the development and validation of a 96-wells fluidic system, w...

Role of TRPV1 in electroacupuncture-mediated signal to the primary sensory cortex during regulation of the swallowing function
CONCLUSION: The TRPV1 at CV23 after EA treatment might play a key role in mediating local blood perfusion but was not involved in transferring EA signals to the central nervous system (CNS). These findings collectively suggested that TRPV1 may be one of the important regulators involved in the mechanism of EA treatment for improving swallowing function in PSD.PMID:37718934 | DOI:10.1111/cns.14457
