Unusual presenting of acute aortic dissection due to penetrating atheromatous ulcer

This study describes a model of acute lung injury following visceral ischemia-reperfusion during supra-celiac aortic cross-clamping via laparotomy in rats. It enables the investigation of both the clinical and biological effects of aortic clamping as well as the impact of ischemia-reperfusion on underlying organs and remote lung...

The protocol describes ascending aortic replacement combined with endovascular coverage of the entire aortic arch with a fenestrated stent graft in a patient with acute type A aortic dissection in the absence of a tear in the aortic...

This protocol describes the synthesis of cyclic cell-penetrating peptides with aromatic cross-links and the evaluation of their permeability across biological...

Here, we describe a simple method to induce clinically relevant skin pressure ulcers (PUs) in a mouse model of spinal cord injury (SCI). This model can be used in pre-clinical studies to screen for different therapeutics for healing PUs in SCI...

Unusual results are those that have a very low chance of occurring. Unusual results can be identified using probabilities and the range rule of thumb. In problems involving probability, unusual results can be observed in 2 instances – an unusually high number of successes or an unusually low number of successes.
According to the range rule of thumb, any value above or below two standard deviations, 2σ  from the mean, μ  is considered unusual.
Maximum unusual value =...

The z score is one of the three measures of relative standing. It describes the location of a value in a dataset relative to the mean. z scores are obtained after the standardization of the values in a dataset. The z score for the mean is 0.
 This score indicates how far a value is from the mean in terms of standard deviation. For example, if a data value has a z score of +1, the researcher can infer that the particular data value is one standard deviation above the mean. If another data...
