Objectives: This study aimed to test the safety and efficiency of a novel stent retriever, RECO, in a swine model.
Background: The stent retrievers show great benefit for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Methods: The framework of the stent was optimized. The proximal stent was closed; mechanical connection replaced the electrolysis connection and the push wire located on the longitudinal axis. After tests in vitro, the safety and thrombectomy efficiency of RECO device were evaluated by angiography and histological analysis in a swine model with placement of experimental soft or hard thrombi.
Results: No device-related thrombi were observed on the perioperative term or 1 month later. The endothelial cells were intact and the smooth muscle cells did not migrate or proliferate. Device-related vasospasm was detected in 9% vessels undergoing the procedure and was alleviated after delivery of a dose of nitroglycerin. The RECO device demonstrated a high recanalization rate in the target vessels with a mean of 1.3 runs. No residual thrombi were observed under the DSA or microscope.
Conclusions: Our data indicated that RECO device was a novel, safe and effective stent based clot retriever. A phase IIa clinical trial, RESTORE, is undergoing (NCT01983644).

The increasing popularity and prevalence of Internet of Things (IoT) applications have led to the widespread use of IoT devices. These devices gather information from their environment and send it across a network. IoT devices are unreliable due to their susceptibility to defect that arise intentionally or spontaneously.

The RECO is a novel endovascular treatment (EVT) device that adjusts the distance between two mesh segments to axially hold the thrombus. We organized this postmarket study to assess the safety and performance of RECO in acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO). This was a single-arm prospective multicentre study that enrolled patients as first-line patients treated with RECO at 9 stroke centres.

Based on the record of Miu Ci theory from ('), and incorporating the relevant discussions of medical scholars from various dynasties, this article interprets and analyzes the Miu Ci technique, the points to be needled, and the diseases can be treated. The following innovative understandings are proposed: 1) The original meaning of "Miu" in Miu Ci is "to prick in a different way from the meridians (needle the major collaterals)", not "needle left and right interchangeably". Needle left and right interchangeably is not a necessary operation in Miu Ci.

Evidence on the effectiveness and comparative effectiveness of stent implantation and balloon angioplasty for native coarctation of the aorta (CoA) and recurrent CoA separately is lacking. The present meta-analysis was performed to assess the efficacy and safety of stent implantation and balloon angioplasty in native (NaCo) and recurrent (ReCo) CoA.A systematic computerized literature search was conducted to retrieve all relevant studies of stent implantation and balloon angioplasty for CoA.
