Non-Surgical Management and Partial Recovery of a 19-Year-Old with Low-Speed Transorbital Penetrating Brain Injury.
Am J Case Rep
November 2024
Department of Radiology, Citadelle Hospital, Liège, Belgium.
Article Synopsis
- Intracranial transorbital penetrating injury (TOPI) can be difficult to manage, potentially leading to neurovascular issues and infections, with low-speed injuries usually causing less harm than high-speed ones.
- A case study described a 19-year-old man who suffered a low-speed TOPI but showed partial recovery without the need for surgery, despite some neurological issues.
- The report emphasizes the importance of a collaborative approach for diagnosing and managing such injuries, as well as the utility of medical imaging in understanding the trajectory of the penetrating object.
[Right ventricle-dependent coronary circulation in pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular . About three patients without coronary ostium atresia. Is a transient percutaneous decompression maneuver necessary?].

Objective: Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA-IVS) is a rare congenital heart disease characterized by a wide morphological spectrum that can be associated with abnormalities in the coronary circulation such as sinusoids, fistulas, stenosis or atresia. Some patients do not present ventriculo-coronary fistulas or intramyocardial sinusoids, other patients do present ventriculo-coronary connections, but only some of the latter will have right ventricle-dependent coronary circulation (RVDCC); timely establishment of the diagnosis of RVDCC is essential, since the prognosis of these patients is generally fatal. There are reports of patients with this type of coronary circulation (RVDCC) who were undergone to univentricular physiology, but this treatment option remains controversial, so the purpose of this manuscript is to share three cases with PA-IVS and RVDCC, their outcome and the reflections they provide us.

Cardiovasc Hematol Agents Med Chem
August 2024
Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine, Harran University, Sanliurfa, Turkiye.
Background: Coronary collaterals are the feeding bridges between the main epicardial arteries, and research has shown that this collateral development plays a crucial role in myocardial performance, especially in patients with coronary artery disease. However, the evolution of these collaterals has not been fully explained.
Objective: In this study, we aimed to reveal the effect of CD31 on coronary collateral development.
Acute-on-chronic inflammation in acute myocardial infarction.
Curr Opin Cardiol
November 2024
Department of Cardiology, University Heart Center, University Hospital of Zurich.
Purpose Of Review: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is heralded by chronic inflammation and entails an excessive burst of acute-on-chronic inflammation (AoCI). This review describes the evolution from understanding atherosclerosis as a chronic inflammatory disease, to recent efforts in optimizing anti-inflammatory therapy to patients with AMI. It highlights the challenges and opportunities in selecting the optimal patient with AMI to derive maximal benefit from early anti-inflammatory therapy.

Pediatr Rep
July 2024
Department of Medicine and Surgery, Section of Ophthalmology, University of Perugia, S. Maria Della Misericordia Hospital, 06129 Perugia, Italy.
Background: Fluorescein angiography (FA) has been a pivotal tool for studying the pathophysiology of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in vivo. We examined the course of ROP using FA to assess the predictive value of angiographic features.
Methods: This is an observational retrospective cohort study of eyes screened for ROP with a binocular indirect ophthalmoscope and FA.
