PURPOSE To describe symptomatic pulmonary emboli from brain arteriovenous malformation embolization with liquid acrylates and to analyze the reasons for these complications and describe preventive techniques. METHODS The clinical records of 182 patients embolized with acrylate glue since 1978 for treatment of brain AVMs were searched for evidence of symptomatic pulmonary complications. Origin...

Anastomotic varices are an uncommon cause of variceal bleeding. After choledochojejunostomy, the anastomosed afferent jejunal loop may have a propensity to form varices, with hepatopetal flow [1,2]. Endoscopic sclerotherapy has the potential to cause intrahepatic obstruction of the portal vein [3–5]. This report describes endoscopic sclerotherapy with a high concentration of n-butyl-2-cyanoacry...

Chiral gold( i ) isocyanide complexes [Au( p -C 6 F 4 OR 1 )( -CNC H (O 2 CC )] with R , or both being ( )-2-octyl, display an interesting and unprecedented response to mechanical thermal stress.

In order to reduce the psychological and aesthetic consequences caused by elective or therapeutic orchiectomy, we developed two types of testicular prostheses, which were produced using a 3D printer, with polylactic acid filament, coated cyanoacrylate polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). They tested in Wistar rats, orchiectomy performed on left testicle prosthesis implanted inside tunica vaginalis, g...

Chromatography is a tool to measure molecular interactions, and computational chemistry is a tool to explain molecular interactions. Therefore, reversed-phase liquid chromatography of acidic drugs using a pentyland an octyl-bonded silica gels was quantitatively analyzed in silico. A model pentyland an octyl-bonded silica gel and a methanol phases were constructed for docking with acidic drugs. ...
