: Hydrophilic polymer embolization (HPE) is a scarcely reported complication associated with endovascular procedures where the hydrophilic coating dislodges and disseminates to more distal vascular beds, leading to ischemic complications. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes associated with HPE in the literature and try to quantify it in a scoping manner. : All reports with regard to HPE in the PubMed database where clinical data were available were included.

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), a non-communicable condition, stands as the primary cause of death globally. This study seeks to evaluate the predictive power of atherogenic indices, which are recognized for their influence on CVD, alongside a newly developed index encompassing all three principal risk factors for CVD, referred to as the triglyceride-total cholesterol-body weight index (TCBI). The primary outcomes evaluated include both the incidence and mortality rates associated with CVD.

Rationale: We report the efficacy of combination prednisolone and intravenous (IV) rituximab as an immunosuppressive regimen for a young male presenting with extensive venous thromboembolism including a submassive pulmonary embolism secondary to life-threatening nephrotic syndrome from very high risk anti-phospholipase-A2 receptor (PLA2R) positive membranous nephropathy. Initial treatment was with mechanical thrombectomy and anticoagulation. Thereafter, oral prednisolone was initiated to induce remission, during a period of uninterrupted anticoagulation.

Safety assessment of cyanoacrylate closure for treatment of varicose veins in a large-scale national survey in Japan.

J Vasc Surg Venous Lymphat Disord

December 2024

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Fukushima Dai-Ichi Hospital, Fukushima, Japan; Japanese Regulatory Committee for Endovascular Treatment of Varicose Veins, Tokyo, Japan.

Objective: Cyanoacrylate closure (CAC) is a minimally invasive technique for treating axial venous reflux. However, the incidence of serious adverse events (AEs) related to CAC is concerning. With an increasing number of patients undergoing CAC and insufficient safety data in Japan, this study aimed to investigate the safety profile of CAC, focusing on the types and incidence of AEs.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the associations between noninsulin-dependent insulin resistance indices (NI-IRIs), including the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, TyG-BMI, triglyceride-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C), and metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR), as well as the occurrence of restenosis in patients with lower extremity atherosclerotic occlusive disease after drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment.

Methods: The primary endpoint was restenosis within one year after the procedure, which was defined as ≥ 50% stenosis of the treated artery segment. The association between NI-IRIs and restenosis was assessed via multivariable logistic regression analysis.
