Routine Use of Ultrasound Guidance in Femoral Arterial Access for Peripheral Vascular Intervention Decreases Groin Hematoma Rates in High-Volume Surgeons
There is a documented learning curve when adopting ultrasound guidance (UG) to aid vascular access. In the Vascular Study Group of New England (VSGNE), routine UG during percutaneous femoral artery access was shown to protect against the complication of groin hematoma. We sought to confirm this finding in the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI), a dataset with a larger sample size and broader geographic distribution, and evaluate the effects of ultrasound usage and interventionalist volume on hematoma rates following peripheral vascular interventions (PVI).

Pediatric Vascular Surgical Practice Patterns
Vascular surgeons infrequently care for pediatric patients. As such, variability in operative management and available hospital resources at free-standing children ’s hospitals (CH) may exist. The study aims were: 1) determine vascular surgeon comfort level with pediatric vascular surgery, and 2) determine variations in pediatric vascular surgery practice patterns.

Association of Vascular Surgery Board of the American Board of Surgery Examination Performance With Clinical Outcomes: Experience Matters
The Vascular Surgery Board of the American Board of Surgery (VSB-ABS) Vascular Surgery Qualifying and Certifying examinations are meant to assess qualifications, but it is unclear whether examination performance correlates with clinical outcomes. We assessed this relationship using data from the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative (SVS-VQI).

Results of Carotid Endarterectomy in Patients With Contralateral Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion From the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative
Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is among the most commonly performed vascular procedures. Some have suggested worse outcomes with contralateral internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion (cICAoccl). We compared patients with vs without cICAoccl using the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative database.

Transradial interventions in contemporary vascular surgery practice.
Conclusions Using the transradial approach, we have demonstrated a high technical success rate over a range of clinical contexts with minimal morbidity and no significant complications such as bleeding or hand ischemia. The safety profile compares favorably to historical complication rates from brachial access. Radial access is a safe and useful skill for vascular surgeons to master.

VASCUNET, VQI, and the International Consortium of Vascular Registries – Unique Collaborations for Quality Improvement in Vascular Surgery
Twenty-two years ago, a few enthusiastic pioneers met in Lisbon and laid the foundation for VASCUNET, an open-minded cross border collaboration of European and Australasian vascular surgeons dedicated to vascular health service research and quality improvement (www.vascunet.org). This was before many important innovations in digital communication and data acquisition, when less than 50% of data were stored using digital technologies.1 Since then, the digital revolution and rapid innovation in healthcare has led to the collection and analysis of “big data”, which has become an important tool in modern medicine.

Vascular Surgery in Ethiopia: Result of Twinning Partnership in Developing Vascular Care
In Sub-Saharan Africa, the field of vascular surgery is relatively new. Cardiovascular diseases and other noncommunicable diseases account for>70% of global mortality; moreover, 5 billion people have no access to basic and emergency surgical care. Since 2016, the Division of Vascular Surgery of the University of Wisconsin and Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital of Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia developed a partnership whereby a vascular surgery care and fellowship training program was initiated.

Comparison of Vascular Surgery Operative Exposure for 0 + 5 Versus 5 + 2 Training Paradigms
The 0 + 5 vascular surgery training paradigm introduced in 2007 offered a unique training pathway for aspiring vascular surgeons. It is unclear whether this pathway provides more robust operative exposure to vascular surgery trainees than does the traditional 5 + 2 track. There remains limited information available on the current trends in case numbers of graduating residents to date. Our study seeks to compare the vascular surgery operative exposure for 0 + 5 vs 5 + 2 training paradigms.

Strategy of training in robotic vascular surgery
Robotic vascular surgery is a mini-invasive alternative for the treatment of aortoiliac pathologies, avoiding the difficult training of laparoscopic vascular surgery. Training on simulator and pelvi-trainer exist, but no training program was described. The aim of this study was to evaluate a strategy of formation to the standardized robotic vascular surgery for a vascular team without experience in laparoscopic surgery.

The study of transcarotid artery revascularization under local versus general anesthesia with results from the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative.
CONCLUSIONS: Excellent outcomes from transcarotid artery revascularization for carotid stenosis were observed in the VQI database between the years 2016 and 2018, under both local anesthesia and general anesthesia. The data demonstrate the choice of anesthesia for transcarotid artery revascularization does not appear to have any effect on clinical outcomes. Surgical teams should perform transcarotid artery revascularization under the anesthesia type they are most comfortable with. PMID: 32408855 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Role of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 protein in the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
Abstract OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the primary cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The abnormal proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is a key event in the pathogenesis of CVD. The functional and phenotypic changes in vascular cells are mediated by complex signaling cascades that initiate and control genetic reprogramming. Many studies have demonstrated that signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) regulates a diverse array of functions relevant to atherosclerosis. METHODS: In this review, we summarize the studies on the STAT3-mediated prolifera...
