Prior unblinded studies have suggested that catheter-based renal-artery denervation reduces blood pressure in patients with resistant hypertension.We designed a prospective, single-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial. Patients severe hypertension were randomly assigned 2:1 ratio to undergo renal or sham procedure. Before randomization, receiving stable antihypertensive regimen involving maximally tolerated doses of at least three drugs, including diuretic. The primary efficacy end point...
Polymer-free drug-coated stents provide superior clinical outcomes to bare-metal in patients at high bleeding risk who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and are treated with 1 month of dual antiplatelet therapy. Data on the use polymer-based drug-eluting stents, as compared polymer-free such limited.In an international, randomized, single-blind trial, we zotarolimus-eluting umirolimus-coated risk. After PCI, were therapy, followed by single The primary outcome was a safety...
The aim of this study was to explore the safety and efficacy a dedicated drug-eluting stent for treatment coronary lesions with very small reference vessel diameter (RVD).Smaller RVD is associated increased risk restenosis target lesion failure (TLF) after implantation.This prospective, single-arm, multicenter trial Resolute Onyx 2.0-mm zotarolimus-eluting stent. primary endpoint 12-month TLF, which compared pre-specified performance goal. Subjects stable or unstable angina ischemia, ≤27 mm...
Elevated nighttime blood pressure (BP) and abnormal circadian dipping patterns are associated with advanced age coexisting illnesses attributed to autonomic dysfunction. Radiofrequency renal denervation (RF RDN) effectively lowers BP throughout 24 h thus may provide an effective antihypertensive therapeutic option. This analysis assesses the effects of RDN on nocturnal hypertension different dipper defined by nighttime/daytime ratio (i.e. dippers, non-dippers, risers) through 2 years in...
Polymer-free drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in combination with 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has shown superior safety and efficacy outcomes compared bare-metal stents among patients high-bleeding risk (HBR) treated DAPT. The of the newer-generation durable-polymer DES Resolute Onyx polymer-free HBR DAPT is unknown. ONE global randomized trial an international, prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled study enrolling undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. will...
Background An increased body mass index (BMI) is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease and reduction in life expectancy. However, several studies reported improved clinical outcomes obese patients treated for diseases. The aim the present study to investigate impact BMI on long-term after implantation zotarolimus eluting stents. Methods Individual patient data were pooled from RESOLUTE Clinical Program comprising five trials worldwide. population was sorted according tertiles...
A generalized multiple description video coding based on hierarchical B pictures is proposed in this paper. Two descriptions are generated by employing the H.264/MPEG4-AVC codec conforming with original sequence. The only difference between two lies selection of key pictures. Temporal scalability for each achieved benefiting from high-efficiency structure. More importantly, good central-side-distortion-rate tradeoff obtained our scheme. Experimental results show that it an effective and...
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases. In patients CRSwNP, present study performed comprehensive bioinformatics analyses to characterize transcriptome profiles mRNAs and long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs). A total 265 differentially expressed lncRNAs 994 were identified. The majority up‑ downregulated genes significantly enriched in biological process 'signal transduction'. molecular function was 'protein binding' cellular component...
Abstract The effects of adding organic carbon on the performance different partial nitrification‐anammox (PNA) process (the activated sludge and biofilm process) were studied, especially nitrogen removal, functional microbial activity, community structure. potential influences quorum sensing (QS) metabolism also analyzed. results showed that addition in systems could reduce total (TN) removal percentages, while it increase TN percentages. percentages SBBR‐CN system with carbon) SBR‐CN 15%...
Abstract Objectives To assess the long‐term safety and efficacy of Resolute zotarolimus‐eluting stent (R‐ZES). Background The R‐ZES has been associated with low rates adverse events over short‐intermediate term follow‐up. However, reliable assessment any implanted device requires evaluation. Methods RESOLUTE US trial was a prospective, observational study conducted at 116 U.S. sites enrolled patients de novo coronary lesions. Patients were followed clinically for 5 years independent event...
In this paper, we propose a new index assignment scheme for the 3-description case, which aims to find 3-tuple sublattice points represent fine lattice point. The design is made such that each edge of triangle formed by needs be as short possible while gravity center close With delicate partition, well designed construction and mapping developed minimize expected distortion.
Catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) reduced blood pressure (BP) in multiple randomized sham-controlled trials of patients with uncontrolled hypertension (HTN). We tested proof-of-concept for a more selective treatment strategy, exclusively targeting these areas to improve the efficiency procedure. The SPYRAL DYSTAL Pilot study was designed mirror HTN-OFF MED Pivotal study, enabling comparison propensity score adjusted active-control group. Patients were antihypertensive...
ABSTRACT As an egg parasitoid, Trichogramma ostriniae ( T. ) exhibits a broad host range and plays crucial role in controlling various lepidopteran agricultural pests. However, the application of chemical pesticides negatively impacts its development survival. Therefore, it is essential to assess toxicity commonly used insecticides against evaluate their compatibility. This study aims determine toxic effects five common (dinotefuran, abamectin, imidacloprid, beta‐cypermethrin,...
