Objective: To analyze the correlation between retinal vascular calibers, ocular blood flow parameters and internal carotid artery stenosis to evaluate effect of on vessels comprehensively. Methods: A retrospective case-control study. The clinical data 141 patients who underwent head-and-neck computed tomography (CT) angiography examinations ICA were collected at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2014 2016. According diagnostic criteria, divided into four...
To assess the quantification accuracy of pulmonary nodules using virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) derived from spectral-detector computed tomography (CT) under an ultra-low-dose scan protocol.A chest phantom consisting 12 was scanned CT at 100 kVp/10 mAs, kVp/20 120 and kVp/30 mAs. Each scanning protocol repeated three times. reconstructed utilizing filtered back projection, hybrid iterative reconstruction, model reconstruction (IMR), VMIs 40-100 keV. The signal-to-noise ratio air noise...
To investigate clinical and imaging parameters to predict blood loss cranial nerve injury (CNI) following carotid body paraganglioma (CBP) resection.
INTRODUCTION: MyD88 is an adaptor protein critical for innate immune signaling and plays a pivotal role in host defense against infection, but its non-infectious myocardial inflammation injury after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) unclear. Our previous studies −/− (KO) mice have demonstrated that essential I/R-induced injury. The current study was to delineate the specific contribution of cardiac bone marrow (BM)-derived mediating ischemic explore underlying mechanisms. METHODS: Chimeric models...
Abstract Background The use of fractional flow reserve (FFR) is limited due to the need invasive pressure wire and hyperaemic stimulus. Computational pressure-flow dynamics derived (caFFR) a novel non-invasive index determine FFR in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Purpose clinical value caFFR remains uncertain. aim study evaluate prognostic role CAD who were treated by optimal medical therapy alone. Methods A total 558 (mean age=64.5±11.2, 59.0% male) ≥1 lesion detected...
Abstract Background Computational pressure-flow dynamics derived fractional flow reserve (caFFR) is a novel index developed to evaluate the extent of myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), which eliminates need invasive pressure guidewire and hyperaemic stimulus conventional (FFR) measurement. Studies have shown improved clinical outcomes associated adherence functional assessment when deciding perform percutaneous intervention (PCI) at per-patient level....
Abstract Introduction Despite class IA guideline recommendations, the use of fractional flow reserve (FFR) in guiding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) stable artery disease (CAD) patients remains low due to limitations including need guidewire placement and hyperaemic stimulus. A novel non-invasive index, computational pressure-flow dynamics derived FFR (caFFR), was developed for measuring functional myocardial ischemia overcoming FFR. However, clinical relevance caFFR be...
Abstract Background A substantial proportion of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) may have intermediate lesion that are non-ischemic during emergency angiography. The prognosis such patients, compared to those stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) without is however uncertain. Recently, a novel index, computational pressure-flow dynamics derived fractional flow reserve (caFFR), has been developed assess myocardial ischemia, the need invasive pressure wire and hyperaemic stimulus as...
