Physiology of intraluminal administration of carbon dioxide as a contrast medium
(2019)Background: Carbon dioxide (CO2) exists in nature around us. In the middle of the 20th century, the intraluminal injection of CO2 demonstrated similar results to those of Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) with an ... -
The preservation of accessory renal arteries should be considered the treatment of choice in complex endovascular aortic repair
(2022)Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate renal function and renal parenchymal length changes secondary to the coverage or preservation of accessory renal arteries (ARAs) in complex aortic repair. Methods: ... -
Quality of life in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic retinopathy: A case–control study
