A rupture is a deterioration in the therapeutic alliance, manifested by a disagreement between the patient and therapist on treatment goals, a lack of collaboration on therapeutic tasks, or a strain in their emotional bond. We present the most frequently used measures of alliance ruptures and clinical examples to illustrate their repair. To examine the relation of rupture repairs to outcome, and the impact of rupture resolution training on outcome, we conducted two meta-analyses. In the first meta-analysis, we examined 11 studies (1,314 patients) that examined the relation between rupture repair episodes and patient treatment outcomes. Results yielded an effect size of r = .29, d = .62, 95% confidence interval [.10, .47], p = .003, indicating a moderate relation between rupture resolution and positive patient outcome. Our second meta-analysis examined the impact of rupture resolution training or supervision on patient outcome. We examined 6 studies (276 trainees/supervisees) that compared the outcomes of trainees who received rupture resolution training with a comparison group. Results did not find a significant relation, r = .11, d = .22, 95% confidence interval [-.09, .30], p = .28. Moderator analyses indicated that the relation between training and outcome was stronger when the sample included fewer patients with personality disorders, when the training was more closely aligned with cognitive behavioral therapy than psychodynamic therapy, and when the treatment was brief. The article concludes with limitations of the research, diversity considerations, and research-informed therapeutic practices for repairing ruptures in ways that contribute to good treatment outcome.

A type 2 endoleak (EL2) remains the most prevalent complication of endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). We conducted a retrospective, single-center analysis, including patients who underwent embolization for an isolated EL2 after EVAR. The study population was stratified into two groups: Group A, consisting of patients whose EL2 resolved after the first embolization procedure, and Group B, consisting of those with refractory EL2 (rEL2).

A woman in her mid-70s presented with worsening dyspnoea, cough and fatigue initially treated for pneumonia. Despite antibiotics, her condition deteriorated, prompting further investigation. Medical history included previous breast implants, the latter of which had ruptured years earlier and was subsequently removed prior to the current presentation.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common chronic liver disease with a high prevalence. Recent data suggest that NAFLD may be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed to investigate the association between NAFLD and carotid high-risk plaque (HRP) as assessed by high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and to examine the diagnostic value of NAFLD.

Background: Aneurysm wall enhancement (AWE) on vessel wall imaging (VWI) scans is a robust biomarker for aneurysmal vulnerability. This study aimed to explore the association of different sleep patterns with AWE and other vulnerability features.
Methods: Patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms were prospectively recruited.

Heterogeneous fault architecture affects crustal seismotectonics and fluid migration. When studying it, we commonly rely on static conceptual models that generally overlook the absolute time dimension of fault (re)activation. Heterogenous faults, however, represent the end-result of protracted, cumulative and intricate deformation histories.
