Patients with acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD) are often treated medically. However, ABAD is a potentially serious emergency if complicated by acute organ ischemia. The therapeutic strategy for ABAD with visceral malperfusion remains controversial. Because emergent surgery has a high mortality rate, emergent endovascular treatment can be performed instead. We report a case of endovascular ...

Patients with uncomplicated acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD) can generally be treated with conservative medical management. However, these patients may develop aortic enlargement during follow-up, with the risk of rupture. Several predictors have been studied in recent years to identify ABAD patients at high risk of aortic enlargement, who may benefit from early surgical or endovascular in...

Sir, Acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD) is a life-threatening vascular emergency with an incidence estimated at 5-30 per 1 million people per year.[1] Available evidence support endovascular and surgical treatment for ABAD complicated by shock or organ damage. In uncomplicated ABAD, benefits of endovascular treatment are not well established and the preferred management mandates close clinic...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a conformational disease that is characterized by amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition in the brain. Aβ exerts its toxicity in part by receptor-mediated interactions that cause down-stream protein misfolding and aggregation, as well as mitochondrial dysfunction. Recent reports indicate that Aβ may also interact directly with intracellular proteins such as the mitochondrial enzy...

Using a new dataset, this paper presents new evidence on inequality in Latin America for the 19th century and studies the effects of factor endowments and trade on inequality. Recent research has highlighted the link between the colonial origins of inequality and its persistence in Latin America. We find that inequality varied substantially throughout the century a...
