    Abstract Purpose: To describe a direct percutaneous carotid access technique for carotid artery stenting (CAS) that circumvents the potential for embolization that can occur during catheter manipulation in the aortic arch during femoral access.
    Technique: After inducing anesthesia, an ultrasound transducer is placed at the base of the neck above the clavicle. A 21-G, 7-cm needle from a micropuncture introducer is used for single-wall puncture of the common carotid artery (CCA). A 0.018-inch guidewire is inserted into the needle for placement of a 4-F, 10-cm introducer. After placing a 0.035-inch angled guidewire in the external carotid artery, the 4-F introducer is exchanged for the closure device sheath (preclose technique). A regular 6-F introducer is then placed inside the closure device sheath, and a low dose (2000 units) of heparin is administered for the brief CAS procedure, which is performed under cerebral protection. After a successful procedure is confirmed, the protection device is retrieved, and the closure device is applied to seal the puncture.
    Conclusion: This approach has a low rate of neurological and access site complications. Percutaneous direct carotid access could extend the indications for CAS to include difficult anatomies, high-risk patients, and certain emergent situations that warrant easy and rapid access to the CCA.

    Abstract Atlantic salmon is an important species for Canadian culture and economy and its importance extends beyond Canada to Scandinavia and Western Europe. However, it is a vulnerable species facing decline due to habitat contamination and destruction. Existing and new Canadian pipeline projects pose a threat to salmonid habitat. The effects of diluted bitumen (dilbit), the main oil circulating in pipelines, are less studied than those of conventional oils, especially during the critical early embryonic developmental stage occurring in freshwater ecosystems. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effects of water-accommodated fractions (WAF) of the Clearwater McMurray dilbit and the Lloydminster Heavy conventional oil on Atlantic salmon embryos exposed either from fertilization or from eyed stage. The dilbit contained the highest concentrations of low molecular weight (LMW) compounds (including BTEX and C6-C10), while the conventional oil contained the highest concentrations of PAHs. The Clearwater dilbit caused a higher percentage of mortality and malformations than the conventional oil at similar WAF concentrations. In addition, the embryos exposed from fertilization suffered a higher mortality rate, more developmental delays, and malformations than embryos exposed from the eyed stage, suggesting that early development is the most sensitive developmental stage to oil exposure. Gene expression and enzymatic activity of the detoxification phase I and II enzymes (CYP1A and GST) were measured. Data showed increases in both cyp1a expression and GST activity with increasing WAF concentrations, while gst expression was not affected by the exposures. Also, gene expression of proteins involved in the biotransformation of vitamin A and DNA damage repair were modified by the oil exposures. Overall, this study indicates that Atlantic salmon is mostly affected by oil exposure at the beginning of its development, during which embryos accumulate deformities that may impact their survival at later life stages.

    Abstract A 26-year-old woman with a history of right-sided recurrent pneumothorax and resection of pulmonary bullae, pleural abrasion, and talc pleurodesis underwent right-sided extensive pleural pneumonectomy for a monophasic primary pleural-pulmonary synovial sarcoma (PPSS). The pathologic diagnosis was predominantly fusiform PPSS with R0 resection. Sixteen months after the operation, she is alive, without signs of new lesions. The extensive tumor resection can achieve a good result for controlling local disease.

    Abstract Objective: To synthesize the available evidence on playground-related injuries and to determine the prevalence of these injuries in pediatric populations.
    Data sources: A rapid systematic review was conducted using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library, as well as the gray literature.
    Study selection: The search was limited to studies published between 2012 and 2016 and identified a total of 858 articles, of which 22 met our inclusion criteria: original quantitative studies published in peer-reviewed journals in the past 5 years, concerning unintentional injuries in playgrounds in children aged 0 to 18 years.
    Synthesis: Information was collected on study and injury characteristics, and the proportion of pediatric injuries related to playground activity was determined. Studies were performed in various countries and most were retrospective cohort studies. The prevalence of playground-related injury ranged from 2% to 34% (median 10%). Studies varied in the types of injuries investigated, including head injuries, genitourinary injuries, ocular and dental trauma, and various types of fractures. Most injuries were low severity.
    Conclusion: Although playgrounds are a common location where pediatric injuries occur, these injuries are relatively low in frequency and severity.

    Abstract Abstract Background In the context of ecosystem management, the present study aims to compare the natural and the present-day forested landscapes of a large territory in Quebec (Canada). Using contemporary and long-term fire cycles, each natural forest landscape is defined according to the variability of its structure and composition, and compared to the present-day landscape. This analysis was conducted to address the question of whether human activities have moved these ecosystems outside the range of natural landscape variability. Methods The study encompassed a forested area of 175 000 km2 divided into 14 landscapes. Using a framework that integrates fire cycles, age structure and forest dynamics, we characterized the forest composition and age structures that resulted from three historical fire cycles (110, 140, and 180 years) representative of the boreal forest of eastern Canada. The modeled natural landscapes were compared with present-day landscapes in regard to the proportion of old-growth forests (landscape level) and the proportion of late-successional forest stands (landscape level and potential vegetation type). Results Four landscapes (39%) remain within their natural range of variability. In contrast, nine landscapes (54%) show a large gap between natural and present-day landscapes. These nine are located in the southern portion of the study area, and are mainly associated with Abies-Betula vegetation where human activities have contributed to a strong increase in the proportion of Populus tremuloides stands (early-successional stages) and a decrease of old-growth forest stands (more than 100 years old). A single landscape (7%), substantially changed from its potential natural state, is a candidate for adaptive-based management. Conclusion Comparison of corresponding natural (reference conditions) and present-day landscapes showed that ten landscapes reflecting an important shift in forest composition and age structure could be considered beyond the range of their natural variability. The ...

    Abstract Carotid artery stenting is considered to be an alternative to carotid endarterectomy for selected patients by many vascular specialists around the world. Acute stent thrombosis following the procedure, although very infrequent, can risk the survival of the patient. In this report, we present a case of acute stent thrombosis 24 hours following the procedure. After a slow deterioration of the clinical state of the patient, he was urgently subjected to thrombectomy with extraction of the stent, with eventual resolution of his symptoms. A review of the current literature is presented together with all the possible treatment options of this serious complication. In conclusion, several neurorescue procedures are available for the vascular surgeon who has to act urgently and, in some cases, aggressively, when stent thrombosis is diagnosed.

    Abstract Purpose: To present a hybrid repair technique that may decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with thoracoabdominal aneurysm (TAAA) repair, especially in high-risk patients.
    Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of patients treated for TAAA at a single institution from 2005 to 2010. Nine patients (8 men; mean age 72 years) with Crawford types II or IV TAAAs were treated with a 2-stage hybrid technique consisting of antegrade visceral debranching of the aorta, followed within a month by endovascular deployment of endografts to cover the entire diseased aortic segment.
    Results: There was no perioperative mortality, paraplegia, or permanent renal failure. Following the debranching procedure, there were 4 cases of transient renal dysfunction, 1 minor stroke (resolved), and 1 low-flow pancreatic fistula that regressed. There were no complications after the endovascular repair. Over a mean follow-up of 28 months (range 8-50), all patients are alive, with good patency of the bypass grafts and endografts. One late type II endoleak is under surveillance.
    Conclusion: This small series shows that the ascending aorta is a safe location for antegrade visceral debranching, which could facilitate hybrid repair in most cases, especially those patients with advanced lesions of the iliac arteries. More patients and longer follow-up are required to draw definite conclusions for the adoption of this treatment in high-risk patients.
