In a severe, diffuse arterial occlusion model of canine hind-limb ischemia, both distal arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and arteriovenous end-to-side anastomosis (AVA) were evaluated as potential methods of revascularization. AVA reversed or minimized both hemodynamic and metabolic indices of ischemia; AVF did not. After AVA segmental blood pressures at the thigh returned to normal, and those at the calf returned to 0.8 from an ischemic level of 0. Both postocclusion toe pulse reappearance times and the toe pulse volumes partially returned toward normal. IN addition, gastrocnemium intramuscular Po2 returned from an ischemic level of 5.3 to 45.5 mm Hg, compared to a control normal of 47.6 mm Hg. Muscle surface pH returned to 7.40 from the ischemic level of 7.06. AVA appears to offer an approach to the treatment of severe, diffuse arterial disease that would utilize the distal venous tree to transport blood to the capillaries for the support of adequate tissue nutrition.

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a progressive cerebrovascular disorder that increases the risk of intracranial ischemia and hemorrhage. Timely diagnosis and intervention can significantly reduce the risk of new-onset stroke in patients with MMD. However, the current diagnostic methods are invasive and expensive, and non-invasive diagnosis using biomarkers of MMD is rarely reported.

Objective: Here, we aim to investigate whether D-dimer (DD)/fibrinogen (FIB) ratio or combination of DD and FIB contribute to the prognosis of stroke and stroke subtypes.
Methods: 1413 patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) were recruited. We measured DD and FIB levels on admission and followed up with patients at discharge and 90-day following discharge.

Purpose: To measure and validate elevated succinate in brain during circulatory arrest in a piglet model of cardiopulmonary bypass.
Methods: Using data from an archive of 3T H MR spectra acquired in previous in-magnet studies, dynamic plots of succinate, spectral simulations and difference spectra were generated for analysis and validation.
Results: Elevation of succinate during circulatory arrest was observed and validated.

Associations of NETs with inflammatory risk and clinical predictive value in large artery atherosclerosis stroke: a prospective cohort study.
Front Immunol
December 2024
Department of Neurology, The Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China.
Background And Objective: Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) with inflammatory risk are important contributors to cardiovascular disease, but no definitive information is available in large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke. This study aims to investigate the association between NETs with related inflammatory biomarkers and prognosis of LAA stroke in the Chinese population.
Methods: A prospective study involving 145 LAA stroke cases and 121 healthy controls was conducted.
