Cells infected with human T-cell leukemia virus 1 (HTLV-1) impact serum calcium levels and also affect the endothelium. Since a damaged endothelium causes functional atherosclerosis, serum calcium levels in HTLV-1 carriers may be positively associated with functional atherosclerosis. This cross-sectional study enrolled 1694 Japanese individuals aged 60 to 89 years. Functional atherosclerosis was defined as a cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) ≥ 9.0. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between HTLV-1 carrier status and both serum calcium level and functional atherosclerosis. Even after adjusting for known confounding factors, the serum calcium level was significantly positively associated with functional atherosclerosis only in asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers. The fully adjusted odds ratio and 95% confidence interval of functional atherosclerosis in relation to a one-standard-deviation increment of serum calcium level (0.4 mg/dL in both men and women) were 1.54 (1.18, 2.01) for HTLV-1 carriers (n = 322) and 0.99 (0.87, 1.13) for HTLV-1 non-carriers (n = 1372), respectively. The serum calcium level was positively associated with functional atherosclerosis only among older carriers of HTLV-1 infection. This finding can help effectively estimate the risk of functional atherosclerosis in asymptomatic HTLV-1 carriers.","PeriodicalId":74009,"journal":{"name":"Journal of vascular diseases","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82523783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: An anonymous survey was sent to Spanish hospitals. Results: We obtained 50 answers, mainly from cardiologists (36–72%).

In 10 cases, ECMO removal is percutaneous (20%). In 25 (50%) cases, age is a relative contraindication; 17 have a mobile ECMO team (34%); and 23 (46%) have received ECMO patients from other centers in the last year. Pre-purged ECMO is only used in 16 (32%). ECMO implantation is carried out under ultrasound guidance in 31 (62%), only with angiography in 3 (6%) and with both in 11 (22%).

Elevated NaF uptake within the bilateral carotid arteries signified substantial ongoing vascular microcalcification. Reduced global brain metabolism and region-specific hypometabolism measured with FDG PET indicated potential cerebrovascular mechanisms that may be influencing neurological function. The findings highlight the potential of emerging PET tracers, such as NaF, to improve the diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic management of CVD. This case emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive diagnostic approach as well as continued investigation into CVD pathophysiology using PET-based techniques, which may guide the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.","PeriodicalId":74009,"journal":{"name":"Journal of vascular diseases","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75959521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several diseases have been related to MPs, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, inflammatory diseases, gynecological disorders, and others. Moreover, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) have been widely studied, and drugs and artificial molecules that could target MP activity have been evaluated. MPs are relevant to public health because of their role in several diseases and, most of all, their role as biomarkers that also impact the quality of life and the psychosocial dimension of affected patients. In this context, new pathways to precision health and precision medicine have been opened in the area of MPs.

MI is defined as the cognitive skill that involves the representation of an action, internally, without actual motor execution. AO training evokes internally, and in real time, a simulation of the actual motor gestures that the observer is visually perceiving. Both cognitive processes cause an activation of the brain areas related to the planning, adjustment, and automation of voluntary movement in a similar way as when the action is carried out in a real way. Movement representation strategies have shown that they can be a very useful complement to physical practice to improve some particularly relevant aspects in neurological and musculoskeletal patients. In this narrative review, we discuss the effect that the implementation of these motion representation strategies might have on patients with cardiovascular disease. At the cardiovascular level, MI and AO training should be considered as interventional tools for the management of these patients. With these clinical tools, we could try to improve the generation of cardiopulmonary adaptations, improve exercise tolerability, and also increase functionality. However, more research is needed in this field where these clinical tools are combined with cardiac rehabilitation programs to see if the clinical effect is greater than cardiac rehabilitation programs in isolation.","PeriodicalId":74009,"journal":{"name":"Journal of vascular diseases","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74023054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite its rare occurrence, VGM is of particular clinical relevance, as the excessive intracranial shunt volume leads to high mortality without appropriate treatment. Methods: The objective of this article is to review the published data on neurointerventional treatment and compare outcome quality in the included studies. Eight studies were included and synthesized. One study was multicentric and the rest were retrospective monocentric (level 4 evidence studies according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine). Results: The total number of included patients was 480 and patient age ranged from 1 day to 18 years. Mild or severe heart failure, hydrocephalus, and other reasons led to the indication for neurointerventional treatment, which was performed in all studies in the form of embolization. Under consideration of the introduced semiquantitative multidimensional scoring system, the highest total score, i.e., the best outcome quality, was found for the study “Houston” 2002–2018 (19 points) and the study “Duisburg” 2001–2010 (19 points). Conclusions: Neurointerventional treatment represents the essential pillar in the interdisciplinary management of patients with VGM, although standardization is lacking—based on the results of the structured review. As complementary treatments, pediatric critical care is mandatory and includes medical hemodynamic stabilization.","PeriodicalId":74009,"journal":{"name":"Journal of vascular diseases","volume":"6 2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85650236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
