AI Article Synopsis
- A patient with an ascending aortic aneurysm received a valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
- The procedure faced a complication where the implanted valve embolized, meaning it became dislodged and floated away from its intended position.
- A team of specialists devised a unique solution to secure the dislocated valve in the aortic arch using an uncovered endovascular stent.
Article Abstract
We describe the case of a patient with an ascending aortic aneurysm who underwent valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation, which was complicated by valve embolization. After a multidisciplinary discussion and an innovative approach, the free-floating embolized valve was anchored securely in the aortic arch with an uncovered aortic endovascular stent. ().

We have observed the laser-assisted dynamic interference in the electron spectra triggered by attosecond pulse trains. The fingerprints of finer interference fringes, much smaller than the laser photon energy, have been clearly identified experimentally. Our measurements are successfully reproduced by theoretical simulations utilizing the numerical solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and the strong-field approximation.

d-Tagatose, a rare sugar endowed with a low-calorie property, superior taste quality, and probiotic functionality, has garnered significant research attention. However, the prevailing biological production methods relying on β-galactosidase and l-arabinose isomerase face challenges including high cost and suboptimal conversion efficiency. Consequently, it is of great research significance to find efficient alternative routes for d-tagatose synthesis.

Chronic low-grade inflammation observed in older adults, termed inflammaging, is a common feature underlying a multitude of aging-associated maladies including a decline in hematopoietic activity. However, whether suppression of inflammaging can preserve hematopoietic health span remains unclear, in part because of a lack of tools to measure inflammaging within hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here, we identify thrombospondin-1 (Thbs1) as an essential regulator of inflammaging within HSCs.
