Mid-term and late results of endovascular treatment for symptomatic carotid artery stenosis under proximal protection
2021
Introduction: Although filters are still preferred during carotid stenting, proximal protection systems (PPS) are increasingly used during these procedures. PPS seem to be safer than distal systems, especially in symptomatic patients, but evidence supporting their use is limited. Aim: This was a post hoc survey with 30-day mid-term and long-term follow up, which was aimed at assessment of the safety and efficacy of stenting of the internal carotid artery under PPS in symptomatic patients. Material and methods: We analysed the results of stenting in 120 symptomatic patients presenting with at least 60% stenosis. Patients were aged 67.9 ±9.8 years, and 12 patients were older than 80 years. An…
Olive oil intake and risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in the PREDIMED Study
2014
[Background] It is unknown whether individuals at high cardiovascular risk sustain a benefit in cardiovascular disease from increased olive oil consumption. The aim was to assess the association between total olive oil intake, its varieties (extra virgin and common olive oil) and the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in a Mediterranean population at high cardiovascular risk.
PECULIARE EVOLUZIONE DELLA SEMEIOTICA NEURORADIOLOGICA DI UN CASO DI MALATTIA DEMIELINIZZANTE CON LESIONI PSEUDOTUMORALI
2013
SCOPO DEL LAVORO Presentiamo un caso di una paziente di 24 anni che giunge alla nostra attenzione per la comparsa di disartria come quadro clinico d’esordio di una forma aggressiva di malattia demielinizzante di cui si valuta l’atipica evoluzione neuroradiologica delle lesioni pseudotumorali che la caratterizzano e le possibili diagnosi differenziali. MATERIALI E METODI La paziente dopo una prima valutazione in PS è stata sottoposta a TC encefalo, ricoverata presso l’U.O. di Neurologia, sottoposta a controlli RM seriati (anche con tecniche avanzate); durante la degenza è stata inoltre effettuata una biopsia stereotassica. RISULTATI La TC ha rilevato almeno tre lesioni ipodense: a sinistra…

Komandas darbs insulta pacientu aprūpē
2019
Insults tiek diagnosticēts 7-8% pаcientu ar neiropatoloģiju. Slimību raksturo smaga patoģenēze ar mirstību līdz 50% un invаliditāti līdz 80% pacientu.Insulta ārstēšanas panākumi ir atkarīgi no kvalitatīvas medicīniskās aprūpes siegšanas savlaicīguma. Insulta pacientu aprūpe ir labi organizēts un saskaņots ārstniecības personu komandas darbs, sākot no prehospitālā etapa, līdz pat pilnīgam vai daļējai atlabšanai. Kvalifikācijas darba tēma ir „Komandas darbs insulta pacientu aprūpē” ar mērķi izpētīt, komandas darbu un komandas dalībnieku savstarpēju sadarbību, aprūpējot insulta pacientus. Darbā izvirzīts sekojoš pētniecības jautājums: Kāda ir komandas dalībnieku savstarpējā sadarbība insulta p…
