    Abstract Background: Liquid embolic agents and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) particles have been used for the embolization of the middle meningeal artery (MMA) for the treatment of chronic subdural hematomas. However, the vascular penetration and distribution of these embolic agents have not yet been compared. The current study compares distribution of a liquid embolic agent (Squid) to PVA particles (Contour) in an in vitro model of the MMA.
    Methods: MMA models were embolized with Contour PVA particles 45-150 µm, Contour PVA particles 150-250 µm, and Squid-18 liquid embolic agent (n=5 each). The models were scanned and every vascular segment with embolic agent was manually marked on the images. Embolized vascular length as a percentage of control, average embolized vascular diameter, and embolization time were compared between the groups.
    Results: The 150-250 µm Contour particles primarily accumulated close to the microcatheter tip, yielding proximal branch occlusions. The 45-150 µm Contour particles achieved a more distal distribution, but in a patchy segmental pattern. However, the models embolized with Squid-18 had a consistently distal, near-complete and homogenous distribution. Embolized vascular length was significantly higher (76±13% vs 5±3%, P=0.0007) and average embolized vessel diameter was significantly smaller (405±25 µm vs 775±225 µm, P=0.0006) with Squid than with Contour. Embolization time with Squid was also lower (2.8±2.4 min vs 6.4±2.7 min, P=0.09).
    Conclusions: Squid-18 liquid results in a considerably more consistent, distal and homogeneous pattern of embolysate distribution than Contour PVA particles in an anatomical model of the MMA tree.

    Abstract Cancer cells activate de novo lipogenesis by overexpressing the lipogenic enzymes ACLY, ACC and FASN to support rapid cell division. FASN, previously known as oncogenic antigen-519 (OA-519) catalyzes seven sequential reactions to synthesize palmitic acid (C16) from substrates acetyl CoA, and malonyl CoA. The dependence of cancer cells on FASN-derived lipids and the differential expression of FASN in cancer cells compared to their normal counterparts make it an attractive metabolic drug target in cancer therapy. In the present study, an attempt has been made to identify potent FASN inhibitors from Asinex-Synergy compound database using structure-based virtual screening. The serial docking protocols of increasing precisions identified LEG-17649942, with glide score -10.34 kcal/mol as a promising compound which can directly interact with active site residues H293 and H331. LEG-17649942 possesses drug-like pharmacokinetic properties as predicted by Qikprop. LEG-17649942 exhibited cytotoxicity in breast cancer cell lines SK-BR-3, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 with maximum activity against MDA-MB-231 cells with IC50 of 50 μM. The study put forward LEG-17649942 as a novel drug-lead compound against triple negative breast cancer with an exquisite binding pattern to FASN-KS domain.

    Abstract Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a key enzyme involved in the formation of pro-inflammatory mediators like eicosanoids. Inhibition of PLA2 is regarded as one of the effective methods of controlling inflammation. The present study investigated the binding potentials of three natural compounds, rosmarinic acid (RA), capsaicin (CAP), and curcumin (CUR) by means of in silico and in vitro methods. Our study revealed that RA has relatively better binding affinity and inhibition potentials when compared to the other two molecules. Our ITC experiments were also suggested a slightly better binding energy for the RA. The stoichiometry of the protein ligand complex obtained from one of the ITC experiments suggested the possibilities of binding of a small molecule MCW (degraded product of CUR) on PLA2. Overall study demonstrated that the anti-inflammatory activity of RA, CUR and CAP may be partly due to the inhibition of PLA2.

    Abstract Background: The Tigertriever stent retriever (Rapid Medical) can be actively expanded and contracted by the operator, which allows for several actuation-related parameters to be optimized to potentially improve device efficacy. These parameters have not yet been evaluated. We conducted a benchtop study to evaluate the effect of actuation frequency on clot integration within the stent.
    Methods: A Tigertriever 17 device was deployed within a biological clot analog placed in a straight tube. The device was actuated between the maximally contracted and maximally expanded states with three different frequencies: passive (one-time opening,
    Results: The clot integration factor was significantly higher (23% increase,
    Conclusions: Faster actuation frequencies may result in improved clot integration with the Tigertriever device. This effect needs to be validated by clinical data.

    Abstract Chandu Sadasivan, Andrew Cave Department of Family Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada Purpose: Asthma is the most common chronic disease among children. Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction which is common in asthmatic patients also occurs in individuals with no prior asthma diagnosis. Despite this and the fact that soccer is a high ventilation sport, there are no validated asthma management protocols in place for soccer coaches. This study aims to address 1) soccer coaches’ current knowledge on asthma, 2) whether there is a need for asthma-related training, and 3) any barriers to administration of such training.Patients and methods: A total of 2,300 volunteer youth soccer coaches from the Edmonton Minor Soccer Association (EMSA) were invited to participate in completing a 22-question online survey. The survey was open for 1month from June 8, 2018, to July 8, 2018.Results: There was a response rate of 22% (513 of 2,300). Respondents were on average, inexperienced coaches, coached younger age groups, and approximately one-third of respondents had personal experience with asthma (either themselves or their child had asthma). 93% of respondents had not received any asthma-related training at any coaching level, whether it be from EMSA or the Alberta Soccer Association. Coaches had strong knowledge on how to treat asthma attacks, but mixed levels of knowledge on asthma attack prevention. Experienced coaches were better at identifying the number of players with asthma on their team and the number of asthma-related incidents they had encountered as coaches. Coaches demonstrated a receptive attitude toward receiving asthma-related training, with 91% of respondents saying training would be beneficial and 69% of respondents saying training should be mandatory.Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that soccer coaches have limited knowledge regarding asthma management, acknowledge a need for asthma-related training, and are willing to participate in and could benefit from educational interventions as it pertains to their roles as coaches.
