“…The role of OCT during CTO PCI is currently limited to stent sizing and optimization, however, due to its high spatial resolution, OCT is ideal for detecting stent edge dissections and strut malapposition. In this review, we describe the use of intravascular imaging for lesion crossing, plaque characterization and wire tracking, extra- or intra-plaque, and stent sizing and optimization during CTO PCI and summarize the findings of the major studies in this field.…”

“…From specimens collected in the Gruna do Enfurnado Cave in the Serra do Ramalho karst area, municipality of Coribe, state of Bahia, Brazil, we describe Spelaeometra hypogea Cordeiro & Moreira, sp. nov. and compare it with Spelaeometra gruta Polhemus & Ferreira, 2018. The new species is diagnosed by the general body color being pale-yellow to light-brown; antennal segments I and II being subequal in length; the reduced gular lobe, not covering any labial segment; the male proctiger without apical projections; and the male paramere with convex dorsal margin after the curvature, with a narrow hook-like apex.…”

“…CONCLUSION: We provide additional and independent evidence that removal of the diseased cortex which were parts of the proximal and distal fragment and reconstruction of the defect in the cortex with a press- fitunicortical Non vascularized osteoperiosteal fibular strut graft with a hybrid fixation is a good treatment modality for monostotic fibrous dysplasia. …”

“…The Hexa lattice structure densified at a smaller strain than the BCC and TO lattice structures, due to high density of the struts in the compressive direction. Static and high-speed indentation tests revealed that the TO and Hexa exhibited slight strain rate dependence of the compressive strength, whereas the BCC lattice structure showed a large strain rate dependence. …”
