The article presents an experience of arteriovenous fistulas forming and using in 78 patients with end-stage chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. New methods for permanent vascular accesses forming were suggested. These techniques increased the operation period of arteriovenous fistulas.

Purpose: This literature review aims to synthesise current research on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) for the segmentation of brain neuroanatomical structures in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: A literature search was conducted using the databases Embase, Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science, and captured articles were assessed for inclusion in the review. Data extraction was performed for the summary of the AI model used, and key findings of each article, advantages and disadvantages were identified.
Factors associated with early and late losses of primary patency following drug-coated balloon for dysfunctional arteriovenous fistula.

Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Kidney and Dialysis, Kansai Rosai Hospital, Amagasaki, Japan.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of dysfunctional arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) and to identify the risk factors associated with early and late losses of primary patency following DCB in real-world practice.
Methods: This multicenter, retrospective study included 407 patients (72 ± 11 years, 64.1% males) with dysfunctional AVFs (juxta-anastomotic lesion location in 58.
Information needs in vascular access decision-making: A qualitative study of patient and clinical stakeholder perspectives.
J Vasc Access
January 2025
Glasgow Renal and Transplant Unit, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Glasgow, UK.
Background: The information and decision support needs required to embed a patient-centred strategy are challenging, as several haemodialysis vascular access strategies are possible with significant differences in short- and long-term outcomes of potential treatment options. We aimed to explore and describe stakeholder perspectives on information needs when making decisions about vascular access (VA) for haemodialysis.
Methods: We performed thematic analysis of seven (six online, one in person) focus group discussions including transcripts, post-it phrases and text responses with 14 patients and 12 vascular access professionals (four nephrologists, three surgeons and five nurses - Vascular access nurse specialists/Education and dialysis nurses) who participated in at total of six online and one in person focus group.
Assessment of safety and effectiveness after percutaneous closure for decannulation of Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has emerged as a crucial component of critical care medicine, mainly as a lifesaving intervention for patients experiencing refractory cardiac arrest and respiratory failure.
Background: In the past, VA-ECMO decannulation was surgical and often associated with a high rate of periprocedural complications, such as surgical site infection, bleeding, and patient mobilization costs. To reduce the rate of these adverse events, many percutaneous techniques utilizing suture-mediated closing devices have been adopted.
