A new generation of “theranostic” nanoparticles has been shown to both detect and reduce plaques in the arteries. Nanoparticles absorbed by immune cells in the arteries, where they work to lower ...

Background: Investigating basal blood perfusion in the major arteries of the limbs to guide flow rate selection during ex vivo perfusion preservation for limb replantation (transplantation). Methods: ...

Thrombosis of the ulnar artery can be a cause of significant morbidity. Most often a consequence of blunt trauma to the hypothenar eminence of the hand, it may be attributable to one traumatic event ...

A small study found that fatty buildup in the blood vessels of the neck (carotid arteries) may contain 50 times or more micronanoplastics -- minuscule bits of plastic -- compared to arteries free of ...

A small Chinese trial compared the effects of three oral antispastic medications for 24 weeks post-coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in relation to spasm-induced radial artery graft failure.

Open elbow dislocation is a rare emergency in children. Its association with brachial artery injury is very rare. We report the case of a child admitted for total section of the brachial artery on ...

Introduction Transradial access (TRA) has rapidly emerged as the preferred vascular access site for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. Radial artery occlusion (RAO) remains ...
