Objective: To investigate the current situation and developing trend of antithrombotic function study of endothelium in vascular tissue engineering.
Methods: The effect of several elements on the antithrombotic ability of endothelium, including the source of endothelium, the characteristic of the matrix materials, the cell culture methods, and the endothelium's gene modification were analyzed.
Results: The normal antithrombotic function of tissue engineered vascular relied on the source of endothelium, gene modification of seeding cells, the cell culture methods in vitro, and the characteristic of the scaffolds.
Conclusion: The establishment of an ideal antithrombotic functional tissue engineering vascular still requires further studies in various aspects including seeding cells, matrix materials, and cell culture methods. Gene modification of vascular endothelium, which improves the antithrombotic ability, deserves more attention.

The optimal endovascular management of cervical carotid dissection causing tandem occlusion remains uncertain. We investigated the impact of emergent carotid stenting during endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in patients with tandem occlusion secondary to cervical carotid artery dissection. This was a secondary analysis of patients treated with EVT for AIS due to occlusive carotid artery dissection and tandem occlusion included in the retrospective international Antithrombotic Treatment for Stroke Prevention in Cervical Artery Dissection (STOP-CAD) study.

Introduction: Hepatic fibrosis (HF), a progressive chronic liver disease, is a serious threat to global public health. The lack of preventive and therapeutic strategies has created an urgent need for effective anti-fibrosis agents. There is growing evidence that natural products might provide safe and effective interventions for HF.

The glycocalyx is an essential structural and functional component of endothelial cells. Extensive hemodynamic changes cause endothelial glycocalyx disruption and vascular dysfunction, leading to multiple arterial and venous disorders. Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a common disorder of the lower extremities with major health and socio-economic implications, but complex pathophysiology.

Background: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of clopidogrel-rivaroxaban combination compared to aspirin-rivaroxaban combination in patients with symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD).
Methods: Consecutive patients with symptomatic PAD patients were analyzed from January, 2018 to June, 2022 at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital. Patients were divided into two groups based on the antithrombotic therapy.

Fenestrated/branched endovascular aortic repair emerges as the primary therapeutic modality for intricate aortic pathologies encompassing the paravisceral and thoracoabdominal segments, where bridging stent grafts (BSGs) play a vital role in linking the primary aortic endograft with target vessels. Bridging stent grafts can be categorized mainly into self-expanding stent grafts (SESGs) and balloon-expandable stent grafts (BESGs). Physiological factors significantly influence post-complex endovascular aortic repair BSG behaviour, impacting clinical outcomes of SESGs and BESGs in different but overlapping ways.
