Progression Of Atherosclerosis

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis have a high disability rate and reduce the quality of life of the population. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of atherosclerosis and its control may interfere with the progression of atherosclerosis and thus control the occurrence of diseases closely related to atherosclerosis. TSP-1 is a factor that has been found to have an antiangiogenic effect, and CD47, as the receptor of TSP-1, can participate in the regulation of antiangiogenesis of atherosclerosis. VEGF is an important regulator of angiogenesis, and TSP-1/CD47 can cause VEGF and its downstream expression. Therefore, the TSP-1/CD47/VEGF/VEGFR2 signal may have an important influence on atherosclerosis. In addition, some inflammatory factors, such as IL-1 and NLRP3, can also affect atherosclerosis. This review will be expounded focusing on the pathogenesis and influencing factors of atherosclerosis.

The Individual

As the number of persons with traumatic brain injury has increased in the United States, the focus placed on whether or not guardianship is appropriate for such individuals has expanded. The purpose of this paper is to provide knowledge for rehabilitation counselors on the issues of guardianship and to explore other, less intrusive methods to meet the needs of individuals with traumatic brain injuries while maximizing their independence. Issues such as competency and independence need to be addressed in order to determine the necessity of guardianship. The level of restriction that guardianship imposes on the individual must also be considered in regards to what is most appropriate for the person with a traumatic brain injury, with consideration given to alternatives to guardianship that are less restrictive and invasive. Alternatives to guardianship include designating a representative payee, choosing a durable power of attorney, or creating a trust for the person with a traumatic brain injury. Rehabilitation counselors should be knowledgeable of the issues surrounding guardianship and alternatives to guardianship in order to have a strong knowledge base regarding issues that may affect their clients with traumatic brain injuries and to be able to provide the highest quality of services to their clients.

Background: Decompressive craniectomy is a surgical technique proposed in the treatment of intracranial hypertension refractory to medical treatment and engaging the vital prognosis of patients. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective study about 41 cases of decompressive flap in the neurosurgery department of CHU ibn Rochd of Casablanca between 2015 and 2018. Aim: This study aims to discuss the management of intractable ICH in adults, focusing on the role of DC in patients with traumatic brain and identify the different indications, contraindications and complications. Results: The results show a clear male predominance with an average age of 40 years. The initial GCS >7 was in 63%, and <7 in 36% of cases, anisocoria was present in 65%. The most frequent indication for craniectomy is a neurological worsening. The type of craniectomy performed in the majority of cases is a hemi craniectomy in 92% of cases. Concerning the prognosis, we observed 32% of deaths and 68% of survivors of which 39% of patients without sequelae GOS 5 and 32% with a moderate disability GOS 4. The moderate disability GOS 3 was found in 21% and one case in vegetative state GOS 2. Regarding immediate complications after craniectomy: 33% of patients presented convulsions, 12% a new homolateral hematoma, 49% a nosocomial pneumopathy and 10% a postoperative meningitis. Conclusion: Decisions to recommend DC must always be made not only in the context of its clinical indications but also after consideration of an individual patient's preferences and quality of life expectations.
