Background: Genome-wide association studies have identified common genetic variants at ~300 human genomic loci linked to coronary artery disease (CAD) susceptibility. Among these genomic regions, the ...

BACKGROUND: In this study, we define the mechanistic association between long noncoding RNA: ENST00000495536 (lnc-536) and transcription factor HOXB13 in mediating proproliferative smooth muscle ...

After the occipital protuberance was visualized, the probe was pushed down to find the bifid spinous process of C2. The probe was lateralized (toward the affected side) to identify the semispinalis ...

Background With the introduction of Onyx, transarterial embolization has become the most common endovascular approach to treating dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs), often via the middle meningeal ...

We report an exceptional case of a large right persistent proatlantal artery (PPPA), defined as a “mixed” type, because it originated as in Type 2 from the external carotid artery and courses as in ...

Objectives To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of a pattern recognition approach for the evaluation of MRI scans of the head with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in suspected giant cell arteritis ...
