Background: Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) remains a major global cause of ischemic stroke—particularly in Asian, Black, and Hispanic populations—and is characterized by high recurrence rates despite advances in intensive med...
Background: Self-expanding transcatheter heart valves (SEVs) are often used to treat Sievers type 1 bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis. It remains unclear, however, if different SEVs yield similar outcomes in BAV stenosis, a class effect, or if the...
Objectives: This study aimed to identify factors associated with mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure, while considering non-modifiable factors. Methods: This study was a retrospective cross-sectional analysis of adults with lower limb loss and...
Background: Despite level-A evidence demonstrating superior long-term survival with bilateral internal mammary artery (BIMA) grafting, its global utilization remains dismally low (<10–15%), largely due to historical concerns over deep sterna...
Intramural hematoma (IMH) is an infrequent but clinically significant complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), characterized by blood accumulation within the medial layer, causing true lumen compression and impaired coronary flow. Of...
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening cerebrovascular event with high mortality and long-term morbidity. While clinical grading scales such as Hunt and Hess or the World Federation of Neurological Surgeons (WFNS) score aid in prognosis,...
Background/Objectives: Chronic venous disease is a very common disease. Recent studies suggest a potential link between this condition and cardiovascular disease or mortality. Common pathophysiological features include endothelial injury, hypercoagul...
Objectives: The field of view on abdominal CT includes the lower portion of the heart and thoracic aorta. Notably, triple rule-out (TRO) abnormalities [acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute aortic syndrome (AAS), and pulmonary thromboembolism (PE)...
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a common peripheral vascular condition characterised by the retrograde blood flow in the lower extremities and its consequences such as oedema and other complications. Clinical severity of CVI is assessed accordi...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), epilepsy, and vascular dementia (VaD) are highly prevalent neurological diseases and lead global drivers of morbidity. While these conditions have been historically treated as distinct entities, they now appear to shar...
