Long-term outcomes of carotid endarterectomy with eversion technique in patients with an open circle of Willis: A multicenter registry study.

Introduction: Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is a surgery aimed at removing atherosclerotic plaque from the carotid artery. There are classical and eversion CEA techniques. The eversion technique is the most popular because it does not require the use of implants.

Strainy: phasing and assembly of strain haplotypes from long-read metagenome sequencing.

Bacterial species in microbial communities are often represented by mixtures of strains, distinguished by small variations in their genomes. Short-read approaches can be used to detect small-scale variation between strains but fail to phase these variants into contiguous haplotypes. Long-read metagenome assemblers can generate contiguous bacterial chromosomes but often suppress strain-level variation in favor of species-level consensus.

Carotid endarterectomy for symptomic and asymptomic stenosis: Report of 65388 cases (Russian register).

Aim: Analysis of in-hospital and long-term results of carotid endarterectomy in patients with asymptomatic and symptomatic stenoses.

Materials And Methods: The sample was formed by completely including all cases of carotid endarterectomy ( = 65,388) performed during the period from May 1, 2015 to November 1, 2023. Depending on the symptomatic/asymptomatic nature of the stenosis, all patients were divided into two groups: group 1 - = 39,172 (75.

Enhanced Corrosion Resistance and Mechanical Durability of the Composite PLGA/CaP/Ti Scaffolds for Orthopedic Implants.

In addressing the challenge of enhancing orthopedic implants, 3D porous calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings on titanium (Ti) substrates modified with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) were proposed. CaP coatings on Ti were deposited using the ultrasonic-assisted micro-arc oxidation (UMAO) method, followed by modification with PLGA through a dip coating process at concentrations of 5%, 8%, and 10%. The addition of PLGA significantly improved adhesive-cohesive strength according to the scratch test, while PLGA to CaP adhesion was found to be not less than 8.

Hospital and long-term results of carotid endarterectomy in patients with different severity of coronary artery lesion according to syntax score.

Aim: Analysis of in-hospital and long-term results of carotid endarterectomy (CEE) in patients with different severity of coronary atherosclerosis.

Material And Methods: This comparative, retrospective, open study for the period from January 2013 to April 2020 included 1719 patients operated on for occlusive-stenotic lesions of the internal carotid arteries (ICA). Classical and eversion CEA were used as revascularization strategies.
