Single-procedure 8Fr rheolytic pharmacomechanical thrombectomy for treatment of acute iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis.

Purpose: We hypothesize that single-procedure venous-specific rheolytic thrombectomy for treatment of acute iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis (DVT) will result in improved clinical symptoms as measured by the venous clinical severity score (VCSS), as well as durable venous patency, with decreased hemorrhagic risks and costs associated with conventional catheter-directed therapy and prolonged lytic exposure.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-three consecutive patients with symptomatic, unilateral, iliofemoral DVT who were treated with single-procedure therapy using the 8Fr rheolytic thrombectomy catheter were retrospectively analyzed from 2012-2021. Abstracted data included technical success (> 95% clearance of acute thrombus), adverse events (AEs), and clinical and imaging outcomes at 1-month and 1-year.

Mitochondria play an essential role in the trajectory of adolescent neurodevelopment and behavior in adulthood: evidence from a schizophrenia rat model.

Ample evidence implicate mitochondria in early brain development. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is only circumstantial data for mitochondria involvement in late brain development occurring through adolescence, a critical period in the pathogenesis of various psychiatric disorders, specifically schizophrenia. In schizophrenia, neurodevelopmental abnormalities and mitochondrial dysfunction has been repeatedly reported.

NDUFV2 pseudogene (NDUFV2P1) contributes to mitochondrial complex I deficits in schizophrenia.

Mitochondria together with other cellular components maintain a constant crosstalk, modulating transcriptional and posttranslational processes. We and others demonstrated mitochondrial multifaceted dysfunction in schizophrenia, with aberrant complex I (CoI) as a major cause. Here we show deficits in CoI activity and homeostasis in schizophrenia-derived cell lines.

Isolated Mitochondria Transfer Improves Neuronal Differentiation of Schizophrenia-Derived Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Rescues Deficits in a Rat Model of the Disorder.

Dysfunction of mitochondria, key players in various essential cell processes, has been repeatedly reported in schizophrenia (SZ). Recently, several studies have reported functional recovery and cellular viability following mitochondrial transplantation, mostly in ischemia experimental models. Here, we aimed to demonstrate beneficial effects of isolated active normal mitochondria (IAN-MIT) transfer in vitro and in vivo, using SZ-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) differentiating into glutamatergic neuron, as well as a rodent model of SZ.

Preoperative [Tc]MIBI SPECT/CT Interpretation Criteria for Localization of Parathyroid Adenomas-Correlation with Surgical Findings.

Purpose: Minimally invasive surgery for parathyroid adenomas (PTA) requires precise identification and localization of the diseased gland prior to exploration for optimal surgical planning. The Perrier classification allows for accurate, reproducible, and reliable description of PTA location and communication of clinically significant information to surgeons. The current study compares the Perrier localization of PTA on [Tc]methoxyisobutylisonitrile ([Tc]MIBI) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) with the results of surgery.
