Facilitators and Barriers to Implementation of Simulation Based Education in Vascular Surgery in Europe †
This study explored the status and availability of simulation based education (SBE) for learning vascular surgical procedures identified in the 2019 General Needs Assessment in vascular surgery in Europe (GNA-2019) and identified facilitators and barriers to SBE implementation in vascular surgery.

Postoperative assessment of vascular access.
Authors: Malovrh M Abstract Vascular access problems lead to increased patient morbidity and mortality. Autologous arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are preferred over grafts. An increase in utilization of AVFs results in an increased incidence of early AVF failure and nonmaturation. A thorough evaluation of a new AVF after 4-6 weeks after creation should be considered mandatory. Experienced persons can examine AVF and predict its utility as a dialysis access. Detailed physical examination of the access performed by educated and trained staff can provide, in most cases, adequate information about the main causes for AV...

FDA, Google met to discuss use of search to find adverse drug reactions
Google met with the FDA last month to discuss the possibility of the FDA using Google search data to learn about drug side effects, according to a report in Bloomberg, which spotted a public record of the meeting and secured additional information from an FDA spokesperson. The talk appears to have been an informal, early-stage discussion on […]

Everybody lies: how Google search reveals our darkest secrets
What can we learn about ourselves from the things we ask online? US data scientist Seth Stephens ‑Davidowitz analysed anonymous Google search results, uncovering disturbing truths about our desires, beliefs and prejudicesEverybody lies. People lie about how many drinks they had on the way home. They lie about how often they go to the gym, how much those new shoes cost, whether they read that book. They call in sick when they ’re not. They say they’ll be in touch when they won’t. They say it’s not about you when it is. They say they love you when they don’t. They say they’re happy while in the dumps. They say ...

The CLOSER trial: a multi ‐center study on the clinical safety and effectiveness of closerTM VSS, a novel resorbable transfemoral vascular access sealing system
ConclusionsIn patients undergoing 5–7 Fr transfemoral diagnostic and interventional procedures, the CLOSER Trial met both its primary effectiveness and safety PGs. Immediate hemostasis was achieved in the majority of patients without major complication.

Tools for evidence-based vascular nursing practice: Achieving information literacy for lifelong learning
Information literacy is essential in facilitating evidence-based practice (EBP) activities. In vascular nursing, the implementation of EBP is of utmost importance. Best practice grounded in research evidence can contribute to improved patient care outcomes for individuals with vascular disease. The following paper discusses information literacy competencies for nurses to develop in the context of EBP, with an emphasis on formulating a clinical question and searching for evidence. Relevant health science information resources are described, including their value and purpose in the 6S model of evidence.

Assessing the institutional learning curve for pararenal aortic repair using the fenestrated Anaconda endograft.
Conclusion Albeit the reduction in lethal complications and primary technical success rates were not statistically significant, a lower percentage of unconnected fenestrations and 30-day mortality per calendar year were observed over time. At the same time, an increasing complexity of performed cases, as reflected by an increasing number of fenestrations per case, was observed. Complications associated with this complex endovascular procedure are potentially lethal and remain an unfortunate reality and may not be entirely dependent on overcoming a learning curve. A higher volume of cases performed over the study period and...

Authorship Order in Medical Education Publications: In Search of Practical Guidance for the Community.
This study describes principles commonly applied to authorship order decisions within the medical education community and educators' opinions about the significance of authorship order. Approach: A questionnaire was developed to ascertain current practices related to authorship decisions. Sixteen items were rated in terms of frequency of actual use and the desirability of the practice using a 4-point rating scale: 1 (never), 2 (sometimes), 3 (often), and 4 (always). Additional questions addressed the perceived significance of authorship order. The last set of questions provided information about respondents' personal and c...

Gender-based discrimination is prevalent in the integrated vascular trainee experience and serves as a predictor of burnout
This study sought to characterize the learning environment of vascular residents and to determine how gender-based discrimination and bias (GBDB) affect the clinical experience.

Learn, Connect, and Interact With the EJVES: EJVES Vascular Forum and @EJVES_ESVS
The European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery (EJVES) typically existed in traditional paper format with a subscription based web platform, later presenting an online #openaccess companion, the EJVES Short Reports (EJVESSR). It has continued to evolve in the context of how the journal showcases its academic output, particularly with the development of an expansive social media profile via Twitter (@EJVES_ESVS),1 and the evolution of the EJVESSR into the EJVES Vascular Forum (EJVESVF).

The Vascular Textbook is Dead: Long Live Virtual Vascular
For many vascular surgeons over the years, their training and education has been supported by textbooks that are the basis for learning, but also a reference to look up specific information. Their value begins at the start of training and endures to occasional use by even experienced clinicians. Most of us have a shelf of textbooks on our chosen specialty, and indeed many of us have contributed chapters on our area of expertise or special interest. The limitation, however, is that parts of even the latest textbooks are obsolete, as soon as they are published and most of us use older textbooks less as time goes by.

The patient experience of hemodialysis vascular access decision-making.
CONCLUSIONS: The study participants were minimally engaged in VA decision-making. Educational aids and shared decision-making tools are needed to empower patients to make better-informed, self-efficacious VA decisions. PMID: 33118395 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Ozagrel a thromboxane A2 synthase inhibitor extenuates endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in rat model of bilateral common carotid artery occlusion induced vascular dementia.
Abstract The present study investigates the potential of ozagrel, a thromboxane A2 (TXA2) synthase inhibitor, in bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAo) induced vascular dementia (VaD). Wistar rats were subjected to BCCAo procedure under anesthesia to induce VaD. Morris water maze (MWM) test was employed on 7th day post-surgery to determine learning and memory. Endothelial dysfunction was assessed in isolated aorta by observing endothelial dependent vasorelaxation and levels of serum nitrite. A battery of biochemical and histopathological estimations was performed. Expression analysis of inflammatory cyt...

Finding the best-fit background function for whole-powder-pattern fitting using LASSO combined with tree search
A new linear function for modelling the background in whole-powder-pattern fitting has been derived by applying LASSO (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) and the technique of tree search. The background function (BGF) consists of terms bnL(2 θ /180) − n/2   and bnH(1   −   2 θ /180) − n/2 for the low- and high-angle sides, respectively. Some variable parameters of the BGF should be fixed at zero while others should be varied in order to find the best fit for a given data set without inducing overfitting. The LASSO algorithm can automatically select the variables in linear regression analysis. Ho...

Application of Artificial Intelligence for Automatic Vascular Segmentation: Development of a Hybrid Method Combining Expert System with Deep Learning
Objective: Segmentation of the vascular system is of utmost importance in medical image analysis as evaluation of vascularisation is not only useful for diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, but also represents a critical step to assess the prognosis or plan a surgical intervention in a wide range of diseases.1 Artificial intelligence has brought new insights in medical imaging analysis.2,3 The aim of this study was to develop a fully automatic method for vascular segmentation from computed tomography angiography (CTA) scans.
