The aim of the study was to improve dental treatment quality in patients with arterial hypertension. The study included 256 patients with arterial hypertension (153 females, 103 males) aged 35 to 60 years. Anesthesia efficacy was assessed by visual analog scale after treatment. Oral adverse effects caused by regular intake of antihypertensive drugs and interrelation with articaine and mepivacaine were described. The study proved high efficacy of 4% articaine 1:200 000. The efficacy of 3% mepivacaine with no vasoconstriction agents was 86.4±2.3% but may be enhanced to 93.3±2.3% by preventive non-steroid anti-inflammatory agents taken 25-30 minutes before treatment in maximal daily dosage.

Background: Many studies have validated the use of antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy in coronary artery ectasia (CAE) to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE); however, it is not completely known which group of these antithrombotic medications is more effective. The purpose of this systematic review and network meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of different anti-thrombotic treatments in adult patients with CAE.

Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis followed preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines as well as PRISMA extension statement for reporting of systematic reviews incorporating network meta-analyses and adhered to a registered predetermined methodology noted in the prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO) protocol.

January 2025

Department of Medical Imaging, Faculty of Health Sciences, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada.

Background: Uterine fibroid embolization can be associated with significant pain due to fibroid ischemia and interventions of the procedure itself. Fentanyl and midazolam are commonly provided for sedation and pain relief, but are not tolerated by all patients. This report outlines a novel pain management strategy for uterine fibroid embolization in a patient who could not receive either opioids or benzodiazepines.

CVIR Endovasc

January 2025

Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences, Indiana University School of Medicine, 550 University Blvd, Room 0641, Indianapolis, IN, 46202, USA.

Purpose: To evaluate outcomes in patients aged ≥ 80 years following large-bore aspiration thrombectomy (LBAT) for the treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE).

Materials And Methods: All patients ≥ 80 years of age with PE treated via LBAT at a single center were analyzed from September 2019 - August 2024. This included the octogenarian subgroup from a recently published retrospective analysis assessing all PE patients treated with LBAT at our center between September 2019 and January 2023.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often leads to impaired regulation of cerebral blood flow, which may be caused by pathological changes of the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the arterial wall. Moreover, these cerebrovascular changes may contribute to the development of various neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's-like pathologies that include amyloid beta aggregation. Despite its importance, the pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for VSMC dysfunction after TBI have rarely been evaluated.
