    Abstract This brief report demonstrates the diagnostic utility of cone-beam CT lymphangiography (CBCTL) with intranodal injection of water-soluble iodinated contrast agent for assessing lymphatic disorders in two infants who were contraindicated for MRI and oil-based contrast agent. Both infants had dextro-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) and presented with high-output chylothoraces that were recalcitrant to conservative medical therapy. Both infants were diagnosed with central lymphatic flow disorder based on the CBCTL findings.

    Abstract Background and purpose: The Mediterranean-style diet is widely advocated for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Meanwhile, blood pressure variability (BPV) is a novel risk factor for CVD. It is unknown whether dietary pattern plays a role in modulating BPV.
    Methods: We prospectively followed-up 274 consecutive patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). The Mediterranean diet score (MDS) was derived for all individuals upon recruitment, blood pressure (BP) was measured during each subsequent clinic visit and the visit-to-visit BPV was calculated. The occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and all-cause mortality was monitored.
    Results: After a mean follow-up of 77±12 months, 16.1% of the study population developed MACEs. About 11.3% died from all causes. Patients who developed MACEs or all-cause mortality had a greater systolic BPV compared to those who did not develop an adverse event. Patients who developed a MACE had a lower MDS and further analysis revealed those who developed a stroke had a lower MDS compared with those who did not develop a stroke, but there were no significant differences in MDS between CAD patients with or without subsequent acute coronary syndrome, cardiovascular, or all-cause mortality. After adjusting for confounding variables, a high MDS was an independent predictor for low systolic BPV (B -0.74, 95% confidence interval -1.27 to -0.21, P < 0.01) and was noted to be protective against subsequent development of stroke (hazards ratio 0.48, 95% confidence interval 0.24 to 0.94, P = 0.03).
    Conclusions: Among patients with CAD, a higher MDS is associated with a lower visit-to-visit BPV and with lower stroke risk.
