Background: Direct carotid cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are typically the result of a severe traumatic brain injury. High-flow arteriovenous shunts secondary to rupture of an intracavernous aneurysm, resulting in direct CCFs, are rare. The use of a pipeline embolization device in conjunction with coils and Onyx glue for treatment of direct high-flow CCF resulting from ruptured cavernous carotid artery aneurysm in a clinical setting is not well documented.

It works as an antitoxin and composes a type IV toxin-antitoxin system with YgfX(CptA) typically in , while functions as an flavinylation factor of succinate dehydrogenase and fumarate reductase typically in sp. In this study, we report the contribution of YgfY in MR-1 to tolerance of low temperature and nitrite.
