Use of covered chimney stents for pararenal aortic pathologies is safe and feasible with excellent patency and low incidence of endoleaks.
2012
Background To present the clinical experience of consecutive series with use of balloon-expandable and self-expanding chimney endografts (balloon-expandable covered stent group [BECS] vs self-expanding covered stent group [SECS]) in the endovascular treatment of challenging aortic pathologies requiring renal and/or visceral revascularization. Methods Between January 2009 and May 2011, data for 37 high-risk patients from one center and 35 patients from another institution, with pararenal aortic pathologies treated by the chimney endovascular technique, were prospectively collected. The chimney-graft technique is based on the deployment of a covered or bare-metal stent parallel to the aortic …
Endovascular versus open surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm with concomitant malignancy
2007
Background The management of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and concurrent malignancy is controversial. This study retrospectively assessed the outcome of endovascular repair (EVAR) and open repair (OR) for the treatment of AAA in patients undergoing curative treatment for concomitant malignancies. Methods All patients who underwent surgery for a nonruptured infrarenal AAA of ≥5.5 cm and concomitant malignancy between 1997 and 2005 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Identified were 25 patients (22 men; mean age, 70.3 years) with nonruptured infrarenal AAA of ≥5.5 cm (mean size, 6.4 cm) and concomitant malignancy amenable for curative treatment. EVAR was used to treat 11 p…
Behavioral reasoning perspectives to brand love toward natural products: Moderating role of environmental concern and household size
2021
Abstract Consumers do not easily trust brands’ claims of naturalness, making it essential to understand the drivers of loyalty and the underlying brand love for such products. Responding to this need, the present study developed a conceptual model based on the Behavioral Reasoning Theory (BRT) to examine the antecedents of brand love. The model was tested using data collected through a cross-sectional survey. The findings suggest that health consciousness is positively associated with reasons for consuming natural products and attitude, which, in turn, are also positively associated with each other. At the same time, reasons for consuming natural products and attitude are positively associa…
Purchasing natural personal care products in the era of fake news? The moderation effect of brand trust
2021
Natural personal care products are gaining popularity due to their benefits in terms of health and well-being. However, consumers are wary of these products and are guided by the fake news circulating about them. Since natural product consumption offers several personal and environmental benefits, it would be worthwhile to understand consumers’ tendency to let fake news influence their consumption decisions. Accordingly, the current study examined the association of fake news and purchasing behaviour towards natural personal care products, utilising Stimulus-Organism-Behaviour-Consequence (SOBC) as the theoretical framework. The study proposed openness to change as the stimulus, perceived b…
El desarrollo de la organización consciente en equipos: un clima de participación no basta, los equipos necesitan sentir seguridad para realizar prop…
2020
Mindful organizing (also known as collective mindfulness) is a collective capability that allows teams to anticipate and swiftly recover from unexpected events. This collective capability is especially relevant in high-risk environments where reliability in performance is of utmost importance. In this paper, we build on current mindful organizing theory by showing how two front-line communication and participatory conditions (perceived safety for upward dissent and climate for employee engagement) interact to predict mindful organizing. We shed light on the controversy around mindful organizing’s effect on team’s subjective experience at work by showing that it leads to greater …

Las perífrasis resultativas y presentan una particular complejidad para los aprendientes de español, que se ve agravada por una desatención generalizada en los materiales de Español como Lengua Extranjera (ELE). En este estudio, en primer lugar, llevamos a cabo un análisis del tratamiento que han recibido estas perífrasis en algunos manuales y gramáticas de ELE. Constatamos que, en la mayoría de casos, se han dado explicaciones insuficientes, confusas o excesivamente metalingüísticas de estas construcciones. Tras confirmar la necesidad de actualizar la enseñanza de y , llevamos a cabo una propuesta de sistematización de su tratamiento basándonos en los fundamentos teóricos de la gramática c…
Improved technique for sheath supported contralateral limb gate cannulation in endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair
2019
Summary: Background: To present a technique of sheath supported contralateral limb gate (CLG) cannulation of modular bifurcated stent-graft in endovascular abdominal aortic repair. Materials and methods: After totally percutaneous bilateral femoral access, the 9F introducer sheath is exchanged to a 30 cm 12 fr introducer sheath over a stiff wire contralateral to the intended main stent-graft insertion side and advanced into the aorta below the lowest renal artery. Parallel to the stiff wire within the sheath an additional standard J-tip guidewire with a 5 fr Pigtail angiographic catheter is advanced to the level of the renal arteries. After main body deployment, the 12 fr introducer sheath…
Nevardarbīgā pretošanās kā nozīmīga metode pārejā no totalitārā režīma uz demokrātiju Baltijas valstīs
2015
Bakalaura darba tēma ir „Nevardarbīgā pretošanās kā nozīmīga metode pārejā no totalitārā režīma uz demokrātiju Baltijas valstīs”. Pētāmā problēma ir noskaidrot, vai nevardarbīgo pretošanos metožu izmantošana, ir alternatīva vardarbīgai rīcībai konflikta situācijā, un vai to būtu iespējams izmantot 21.gs. Darba izstrādei ir izvirzīts mērķis un uzdevumi – analizējot Baltijas valstu pieredzi, novērtēt nevardarbīgās pretošanās metodes un sniegt novērtējumu Baltijas valstu rezultātiem; atlasīt un analizēt akadēmisko literatūru, izprast nevardarbīgo pretošanās metožu nozīmi un kā tās tikušas pielietotas praksē. Teorētiskajā daļā tiek definēts “nevardarbīgās pretošanās” jēdziens un uzskaitītas izr…
Penetrating aortic ulcer post migration of thoracic aortic endoprosthesis: Case report
2021
Introduction Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is the first treatment option for many thoracic aortic pathologies. Especially after aortic dissections, it is possible to have progression during follow-up with appearance of new lesions on arterial wall. Herein, we report a case of Penetrating Aortic Ulcer (PAU) post release of Thoracic endoprosthesis. Presentation of case A 67-years-old male with hypertension and diabetes mellitus was followed at our hospital after an emergency procedure for Type B aortic dissection (TBAD) complicated by symptomatic large infrarenal AAA and treated with a proximal TEVAR plus chimney for left subclavian artery and PETTICOAT with EVAR for abdominal a…
