Cangrelor in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest.

: Cangrelor provides rapid platelet inhibition, making it a potential option for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, clinical data on its use after OHCA are limited. This study investigates in-hospital outcomes of cangrelor use in this population.

Complete versus culprit-lesion-only percutaneous coronary intervention after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in patients with multivessel disease.

Background: Multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) represents a common finding at invasive coronary angiography (ICA) among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors. However, optimal invasive treatment strategy for MVD in OHCA remains unknown. Our study aims to assess if complete revascularization improves one-year clinical outcomes in these patients.

Ocular surface disease index in Graves' orbitopathy: a cross-sectional study.

Introduction: Graves' Orbitopathy (GO) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of orbital tissues, leading to various ocular manifestations, including ocular surface disease. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the presence of ocular surface disease using the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) in patients with Graves' disease (GD) and moderate-to-severe active GO compared to those with GD and mild non-active GO. Additionally, we aimed to investigate the correlation between ocular surface disease and the eye features of GO.

Resurgence of Chern-Simons Theory at the Trivial Flat Connection.

Some years ago, it was conjectured by the first author that the Chern-Simons perturbation theory of a 3-manifold at the trivial flat connection is a resurgent power series. We describe completely the resurgent structure of the above series (including the location of the singularities and their Stokes constants) in the case of a hyperbolic knot complement in terms of an extended square matrix (, )-series whose rows are indexed by the boundary parabolic -flat connections, including the trivial one. We use our extended matrix to describe the Stokes constants of the above series, to define explicitly their Borel transform and to identify it with state-integrals.

Unusual Presentation of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis as Laryngeal Mass in an Atypical Patient.

Spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) to the larynx is exceedingly rare and can be obscured by more common conditions such as laryngeal cancer or oropharyngeal candidiasis, complicating an accurate diagnosis. Risk factors for chronic laryngeal disease, such as smoking and toxin exposure, place TB infection comparatively lower for consideration on a physician's differential. However, identifying these lesions is crucial from a medical and public health perspective to prevent community spread.
