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.

Instability of Magnetic Skyrmion Strings Induced by Longitudinal Spin Currents.

It is well established that spin-transfer torques exerted by in-plane spin currents give rise to a motion of magnetic skyrmions resulting in a skyrmion Hall effect. In films of finite thickness or in three-dimensional bulk samples the skyrmions extend in the third direction forming a string. We demonstrate that a spin current flowing longitudinally along the skyrmion string instead induces a Goldstone spin wave instability.

[Effect of renal artery stenting on the clinical and geriatric status of elderly patients with vasorenal hypertension.].

The study consists in determining the effect of renal artery stenting in patients with arterial hypertension in combination with renal artery stenosis on the dynamics of clinical and geriatric status in terms of such indicators as the number of drugs taken, cognitive status, determined by the MMSE scale, prevalence of the frequency of falls, psycho-emotional status by the Beck scale, the quality of sleep on the VAS scale, the index of age discrimination according to the E.Palmore ageism questionnaire, the quality of life according to the SF 36 questionnaire. The study involved 72 elderly patients with arterial hypertension in combination with renal artery stenosis.

A universal coupling mechanism of respiratory complex I.

Complex I is the first enzyme in the respiratory chain, which is responsible for energy production in mitochondria and bacteria. Complex I couples the transfer of two electrons from NADH to quinone and the translocation of four protons across the membrane, but the coupling mechanism remains contentious. Here we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of Escherichia coli complex I (EcCI) in different redox states, including catalytic turnover.

Features of Carotid Endarterectomy in Russia. How do we Resolution Issues?

This review of the literature discusses the solution of unresolved issues related to carotid endarterectomy in Russia: (1) A program has been created for choosing the tactics of revascularization of patients with simultaneous atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary and carotid arteries; (2) Using the methods of computer modeling, studying the genetics and morphology of restenosis, it was found that the classic carotid endarterectomy with plasty of the reconstruction zone with a patch is an unsafe type of revascularization; (3) An eversion carotid endarterectomy with transposition of the internal carotid artery over the hypoglossal nerve has been developed, which makes it possible to prevent damage to the latter during repeated carotid endarterectomy for restenosis; (4) It has been established that carotid endarterectomy is associated with a high risk of complications in patients over 75 years of age; (5) It has been proven that emergency carotid endarterectomy in the first hours after the development of a stroke is not safe because. combined with the maximum number of all non-favorable cardiovascular events; (6) 3 new types of carotid endarterectomy with carotid glomus preservation have been developed.

Neutrophils Mediate Pulmonary Artery Thrombosis In Situ.

Pulmonary embolism is a life-threatening condition, which can result in respiratory insufficiency and death. Blood clots occluding branches of the pulmonary artery (PA) are traditionally considered to originate from thrombi in deep veins (usually in legs). However, growing evidence suggests that occlusion of the vessels in the lungs can develop without preceding deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Carotid Enadrterectomy for Thrombosis of the Internal Carotid Artery in Patients With COVID-19.

Analysis of the results of emergency carotid endarterectomy (CEE) against the background of internal carotid artery (ICA) thrombosis in the acute period of acute cerebrovascular accident (ACVA) in patients with COVID-19. During the COVID-19 pandemic (April 1, 2020-May 1, 2021), 43 patients with ICA thrombosis and a positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) result for SARS-CoV-2 were included in this prospective study. In all cases, CEE was performed in the acutest period of ACVA.

Screw Dislocations in Chiral Magnets.

Helimagnets realize an effective lamellar ordering that supports disclination and dislocation defects. Here, we investigate the micromagnetic structure of screw dislocation lines in cubic chiral magnets using analytical and numerical methods. The far field of these dislocations is universal and classified by an integer strength ν that quantifies its Burgers vector.

[Vertebral artery stenosis - surgical, endovascular or hybrid treatment strategy?].

The main idea of this literature review is based on the uncertainty in the current recommendations regarding the treatment of patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI) caused by the presence of hemodynamically significant stenosis of the vertebral artery (VA). The authors present comparative results of medical, endovascular, open surgical methods of treatment, demonstrating the advantages and disadvantages of each of them, describe new hybrid correction options with substantiation of their effectiveness and safety. The results of treatment of patients with VBI without VA stenosis, with atherosclerotic lesions of the internal carotid arteries are presented.

Fundamentals of Curvilinear Ferromagnetism: Statics and Dynamics of Geometrically Curved Wires and Narrow Ribbons.

Low-dimensional magnetic architectures including wires and thin films are key enablers of prospective ultrafast and energy efficient memory, logic, and sensor devices relying on spin-orbitronic and magnonic concepts. Curvilinear magnetism emerged as a novel approach in material science, which allows tailoring of the fundamental anisotropic and chiral responses relying on the geometrical curvature of magnetic architectures. Much attention is dedicated to magnetic wires of Möbius, helical, or DNA-like double helical shapes, which act as prototypical objects for the exploration of the fundamentals of curvilinear magnetism.

[Pulmonary artery thrombosis: strategy of anticoagulation].

This review is devoted to the management of primary artery thrombosis (PAT). This disease was always considered only as a part of other venous thromboembolic events, in particular isolated pulmonary embolism (PE). Various studies show that PAT can develop as an independent event without concomitant damage to extra-vessels.

Function-adaptive clustered nanoparticles reverse Streptococcus mutans dental biofilm and maintain microbiota balance.

Dental plaques are biofilms that cause dental caries by demineralization with acidogenic bacteria. These bacteria reside inside a protective sheath which makes any curative treatment challenging. We propose an antibiotic-free strategy to disrupt the biofilm by engineered clustered carbon dot nanoparticles that function in the acidic environment of the biofilms.

[Stenting of the first segment of the spinal artery in the acutest period of ischemic stroke in the vertebrobasilar territory].

Objective: To analyze hospital and long-term results of stenting of the V1 segment of the vertebral artery (VA) in the first hours after acute cerebral hemopoiesis/transient ischemic attack (stroke/TIA) in the vertebrobasilar territory (VT).

Material And Methods: The current retrospective study from 2012 to 2019 included 169 patients with hemodynamically significant stenosis of the V1 segment of the VA, who underwent emergency stenting in the first hours after the onset of stroke. The mean time between the development of stroke and correction was 368.

Microwave resonances of magnetic skyrmions in thin film multilayers.

Non-collinear magnets exhibit a rich array of dynamic properties at microwave frequencies. They can host nanometre-scale topological textures known as skyrmions, whose spin resonances are expected to be highly sensitive to their local magnetic environment. Here, we report a magnetic resonance study of an [Ir/Fe/Co/Pt] multilayer hosting Néel skyrmions at room temperature.

Thrombosis of pulmonary vasculature despite anticoagulation and thrombolysis: The findings from seven autopsies.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) with the prevalence of pulmonary microcirculatory thrombosis is considered a common complication of novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) that develops despite anticoagulation.

Methods: The clinical course of the disease and the autopsy findings of seven deceased patients with verified COVID-19 were analyzed. The chest computed tomography (CT) scan was routinely performed while CT pulmonary angiography and a duplex ultrasound scan (DUS) of the lower limbs were used in cases of suspected VTE.

Pulmonary Artery Thrombosis: A Diagnosis That Strives for Its Independence.

According to a widespread theory, thrombotic masses are not formed in the pulmonary artery (PA) but result from migration of blood clots from the venous system. This concept has prevailed in clinical practice for more than a century. However, a new technologic era has brought forth more diagnostic possibilities, and it has been shown that thrombotic masses in the PA could, in many cases, be found without any obvious source of emboli.

Structures of immature EIAV Gag lattices reveal a conserved role for IP6 in lentivirus assembly.

Retrovirus assembly is driven by the multidomain structural protein Gag. Interactions between the capsid domains (CA) of Gag result in Gag multimerization, leading to an immature virus particle that is formed by a protein lattice based on dimeric, trimeric, and hexameric protein contacts. Among retroviruses the inter- and intra-hexamer contacts differ, especially in the N-terminal sub-domain of CA (CANTD).

Dual purpose hafnium oxide nanoparticles offer imaging Streptococcus mutans dental biofilm and fight it In vivo via a drug free approach.

The removal of tenacious dental plaque is of paramount importance; however, early diagnosis can be a challenging task in dental clinics due to the limitations of current approaches, specifically X-ray-based techniques. We have approached this problem by integrating antibacterial properties and X-ray contrast enhancement in a single probe specific to colonies of Streptococcus mutans as the most predominant and carious oral bacteria. We report the synthesis of an inherently therapeutic polymeric silane conjugated hafnium oxide nanoparticles (Hf PS NPs).
