An absent carotid pulse may indicate critical aortic stenosis.
In severe valvular aortic stenosis, obstruction to ventricular contraction results in prolonged ventricular systole and diminished peak flow velocity. This may translate into weak or impalpable peripheral arterial pulses. We report a case of severe aortic stenosis associated with an impalpable carotid pulse (in the absence of local carotid artery disease) that became easily detectable following...
متن کاملSerum Creatinine May Indicate Risk of Symptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage After Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator (IV tPA)
Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) is a known complication following administration of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV tPA) for acute ischemic stroke. sICH results in high rates of death or long-term disability. Our ability to predict its occurrence is important in clinical decision making and when counseling families. The initial National Institute of Neurological Disorder...
متن کاملSalivary Thromboplastic Activity May Indicate Wound Healing after Tooth Extraction
Oral mucosa is susceptible to tissue injury from many causes, including infection, autoimmune disorders, surgical and accidental trauma, and gingival and periodontal inflammation; however, little is known about the events that influence wound healing in the mouth. This study investigated the changes in salivary thromboplastic activity prior to and after primary tooth extraction. Cytological sme...
متن کاملRaman signal enhancement via elastic light scattering.
The enhanced generation of a spontaneous Raman signal by way of elastic scattering is demonstrated. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that elastic scattering, by increasing the path length of light through the medium, enhances the generation of a Raman signal. This is investigated over a large parameter space, demonstrating that this effect is robust, and providing additional physical insi...
متن کاملMicroscopic origin of light scattering in tissue.
A newly designed instrument, the static light-scattering (SLS) microscope, which combines light microscopy with SLS, enables us to characterize local light-scattering patterns of thin tissue sections. Each measurement is performed with an illumination beam of 70-microm diameter. On these length scales, tissue is not homogeneous. Both structural ordering and small heterogeneities contribute to t...
