INTRODUCTION OF NOVEL INTRAVASCULAR ULTRASOUND PRECEDING WITH ANGLED GUIDING CATHETER (I-PAD) TECHNIQUE TO TREAT CHRONIC TOTAL OCCLUSIONS IN PERIPHERAL ARTERY DISEASE

Abstract Background The Clothing optimal endovascular treatment (EVT) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) has remained unestablished.We encountered a patient with PAD in whom CTO was successfully treated using a novel technique that involved intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and angled guiding ca

Context: White lesions in the oral cavity may be benign, pre-malignant or malignant.There are no signs and symptoms which can reliably predict whether a leukoplakia will undergo malignant change or not.Many systemic conditions appear initially in the oral cavity and prompt diagnosis and management can help in minimizing disease progression and orga

To investigate the influence of intersection structures on the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of rock materials, a series of uniaxial compression tests on complete red sandstone specimens and specimens with various hole shapes (T-shape, cross-shape, and shaft-roadway-shape) were conducted by the Instron 1346 servo-controlled rock mech

The papillomavirus (PV) protein E2 is one of only two proteins required for viral DNA replication.E2 is the viral transcriptional regulator/activation protein as well as the initiator of viral DNA replication.E2 is known to interact with various cellular DNA replication proteins, including the PV E1 protein, the cellular ssDNA binding complex (RPA)

The lumbar pseudomeningocele (PSM) is an uncommon condition, mainly, after a lumbar blunt trauma.The authors present a rare case of PSM following a VIBRATOR RABBIT/DUAL STIM lumbar blunt trauma which did not show any abnormalities in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbar region.Firstly, the patient underwent to conservative treatment t
