Dramatic recovery after IV thrombolysis in anterior circulation ischemic stroke...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Dramatic recovery (DR) after thrombolysis is dependent of vessel recanalization and is predictive of favorable clinical outcome. Successful recanalization is not equivalent to DR. Our objective was to assess its frequency and evaluate clinical and biochemical predictors and their prognosis. METHODS: We analyzed prospectively registered data from January 2007 to September 2012. All patie...

Novel method of full-thickness bladder closure with an endoscopic suturing mach...

OBJECTIVE: To assess the feasibility of a pure endoscopic closure method for vesical perforations using fully absorbable material. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A pilot experimental study was performed in eight anaesthetized female pigs. Four 10-mm and four 20-mm endoscopic full thickness cystotomies were created. An endoscopic suturing machine (RD-180®; LSI Solutions, Victor, NY, USA) was deployed through the workin...

Vibrational analysis of d-PCL(530)/siloxane based hybrids doped with two lithiu...

Published online: 22 May 2013 ; The present study has been focused on environmentally friendly sol-gel derived electrolytes based on a di-urethane cross-linked d-PCL(530)/siloxane network (where d represents di, PCL identifies the poly(ε–caprolactone) biopolymer and 530 is the average molecular weight in g.mol-1) doped with a wide range of concentration of lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) and lithium bis(trifluoro...

Stroke and Cardiac Papillary Fibroelastoma: Mechanical Thrombectomy after Throm...

We describe a case of a 34-year-old man with a sudden development of right hemiparesis and aphasia because of infarction of the left middle cerebral artery that was submitted to intravenous (IV) recombinant tissue plasminogen activator and mechanical thrombectomy. Transesophageal echocardiogram showed a small mass on the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve. Cardiac surgery was performed, and histological exami...
