Objective: To analyze the occurrence of arterial events and platelet parameters in patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET), and to explore the characteristics of platelet parameters in patients with PV and ET and their relationship with arterial complications.
Methods: The clinical and laboratory data of newly diagnosed PV and ET patients who visited the Department of Hematology, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University from August 2017 to August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: 86 MPN patients (46 males and 40 females) were enrolled, including 44 PV patients and 42 ET patients, with an median age of 61(23-83) years. The mutation rate of gene, the number of megakaryocytes in bone marrow, the incidence of splenomegaly, and the levels of white blood cell count (WBC), hemoglobin (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR) in PV patients were significantly higher than those in ET patients ( < 0.05), while the levels of PLT and PCT were significantly lower than those in ET patients ( < 0.01). 22 cases (50%) of PV patients were complicated with arterial events, of which 12 had arterial stenosis in≥2 locations. Among arterial events, the PDW of PV patients with ischemic stroke was greater than that of PV patients without ischemic stroke ( =0.003), and the PDW of PV patients with arterial stenosis in≥2 locations was greater than that of PV patients with arterial stenosis in≤1 location ( =0.037). 23 cases (54.8%) of ET patients were complicated with arterial events, and 7 cases had arterial stenosis in≥2 locations. In arterial events, the PCT of ET patients complicated with ischemic stroke was greater than that of ET patients without ischemic stroke ( =0.037), and the PCT of ET patients with≥2 locations of arterial stenosis was greater than that of ET patients with≤1 location of arterial stenosis ( =0.049). The binary logistic regression analysis showed that elevated PDW and PCT were risk factors for ischemic stroke in PV and ET patients, respectively ( < 0.05).
Conclusion: The platelet parameters of PV and ET patients exhibit significantly different characteristics. Elevated PDW and PCT can predict a higher risk of ischemic stroke in PV and ET patients, respectively.

A wandering carotid artery is the rare phenomenon of the repeated migration of the carotid artery into the lateral and retropharyngeal spaces. We report a case of wandering carotid artery before and after carotid artery stenting (CAS). The patient was an 82-year-old female with symptomatic right internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis.

Background: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a globally prevalent atherosclerotic disease associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and a poor prognosis. Skeletal muscle loss (sarcopenia) is particularly common in patients with PAD and is closely associated with poor prognosis.
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the area, density and fat infiltration of skeletal muscle in patients with PAD by CT, and to analyze their relationship with the degree of vascular stenosis.

Small and dense LDL cholesterol (sdLDL-C) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) have important roles in promoting the development of atherosclerosis and are highly correlated with the degree of atherosclerosis. Several studies have found differences in anterior and posterior circulation strokes and in the mechanisms of their atherosclerosis, but little research has been done on the relationship of sdLDL-C and ApoB to atherosclerotic stenosis in anterior and posterior circulation strokes. We analyzed the correlation between sdLDL-C and ApoB and the degree of arterial stenosis in patients with posterior circulation stroke.

Human circulation exhibits significant diversity and heterogeneity of blood vessel shapes. The complex architecture of these vessels may be physiological or pathological resulting in unique hemodynamics and endothelial cell phenotypes that may determine the regulation and alteration of cell signaling pathways and vascular function. While human microphysiological systems of blood vessels (vessel-chips) have mimicked several aspects of vascular pathophysiology, engineering of these tools is still limited to the fabrication of homogeneous tubular structures, especially when living endothelial cell culture is also included.

Superficial temporal artery and middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass surgery is an effective method to enhance cerebral blood flow (CBF) in ischemic patients. However, the effectiveness of various bypass techniques varies with the diversity of Circle of Willis (CoW) structures. This study aims to develop a physiologically realistic hemodynamic model to optimize STA-MCA bypass planning for cerebral ischemia patients with different CoW structures.
