BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In patients with mild to moderate symptomatic carotid artery stenosis, intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) and a thin/ruptured fibrous cap (FC) as evaluated with MRI, and the presence of microembolic signals (MESs) as detected with transcranial Doppler, are associated with an increased risk of a (recurrent) stroke. The objective of the present study is to determine whether the p...

Reactions of the boranes (C6F5)2BR (R = C6F5, Ph, H) with the nitrene-iodine reagents XC6H4SO2N=IPh, X = Me, Cl and MeSO2N=IPh effect the insertion of nitrene into the B–C and B–H bonds affording the species (C6F5)2BN(SO2C6H4X)R (X = Me, R = C6F5 1, Ph 3, H, 4, X = Cl, 5, X = NO2, 7) and (C6F5)2BN(SO2Me)H 6).

OBJECTIVES The goal of this prospective study was to evaluate the carotid atherosclerosis score (CAS) for predicting the development of high-risk plaque features and plaque burden progression. BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that carotid intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) and a disrupted luminal surface (DLS), as identified by using magnetic resonance imaging, are associated with greater ris...

Background: Inadvertent postoperative hypothermia (IPH) is known to be associated with various adverse effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence, predictors and outcome of core inadvertent hypothermia on admission in the post-anesthesia care unit. Methods: Observational, prospective study in a Post-Anesthesia Care Unit. The study population consisted of adult patients after n...

Idiopathic pulmonary haemosiderosis (IPH) is characterized by a triad of recurrent episodes of alveolar haemorrhage, haemoptysis and iron deficiency anaemia. The combination of IPH and coeliac disease (CD) is extremely rare though both diseases may have a common pathogenetic link. As illustrated by our case CD should be specifically looked for in patients with IPH, especially those in whom the ...

Media research on intimate partner homicide (IPH) has primarily focused male perpetrators and female victims. This study analyzed 203 English-language news articles of IPH involving victims for the year 2019. Using thematic analysis, we identified two main themes: doubting victim (who is victim?) recognition (“he didn’t deserve this”). The findings suggest that perpetrated tend to be blamed the...

following Aneurysm Treatment by Flow Diversion We read with interest the recent case series by Cruz et al, reporting their experience with the Pipeline Embolization Device (PED; Chestnut Medical Technologies, Menlo Park, California) in 66 patients with 47 anterior circulation aneurysms. The emphasis of this article was on the high rate of delayed (1– 6 days postprocedure) ipsilateral intraparen...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Carotid plaque composition is a major determinant of cerebrovascular events. In the present analysis, we evaluated the relationship between intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) and a thin/ruptured fibrous cap (TRFC) in moderately stenosed carotid arteries and cerebral infarcts on MRI in the ipsilateral hemisphere. METHODS A total of 101 patients with a symptomatic 30% to 69% ca...

A simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric procedure has been proposed for the assay of fluoroquinolones viz., ciprofloxacin (CPF) and norfloxacin (NRF), and antiallergic drugs viz., methdilazine hydrochloride (MDH) and isothipendyl hydrochloride (IPH) in bulk and pharmaceutical formulations. The method is based on the reaction of selected drugs with Brilliant Blue G (BBG) in NaOAc-AcOH b...
