Objective: To describe the treatment outcomes of patients who underwent Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) for Central Vein Occlusive Disease (CVOD) in end-stage kidney disease and determine the association between patient profile and treatment outcomes.
Methods: A single-institution, retrospective review of patients aged 18 and above with end-stage kidney disease who underwent PTA for CVOD in the University of the Philippines - Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2022, was performed. These patients' demographic and clinical profiles were evaluated using means, frequencies, and percentages.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Institute of Science Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: An indicator of successful cryoballoon (CB)-assisted pulmonary vein (PV) isolation is complete PV occlusion. However, CBs may exhibit a weaker freezing effect on the equatorial plane. This study investigates the predictors of failed left superior PV (LSPV) isolation despite complete occlusion with novel CBs.

Background And Purpose: Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with M2 segment occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is debatable. This study assessed the efficacy, safety, and functional outcomes of EVT in M2 occlusion patients, examining differences in outcomes based on the dominance of the occluded segment (DomM2 vs. Non-DomM2).
