Background: Treatment of calcified lesions with conventional angioplasty balloons can be difficult due to insufficient lumen expansion, high dissection rates, and repeated revascularization. We report a case in which a scoring balloon was used in lesions resistant to angioplasty with a semi-compliant balloon. Case Description: A 72-year-old man presented with severe stenosis and a highly calcified lesion in the right cervical internal carotid artery. Right carotid artery stenting (CAS) was planned to prevent future ischemic stroke events. Conventional semi-compliant balloon angioplasty was uns

ABSTRACT The intragastric balloon system is a minimally invasive weight loss measure for people with obesity. Intra Gastric balloons oblige the patient to eat less food, by occupying space in the stomach, creating a feeling of constant satiety.

Abstract:
We treated a 70-year-old man with a giant paraophthalmic region aneurysm of the right internal carotid artery using the parent artery occlusion technique with three detachable balloons. Initially, the patient did well, but migration of the distal balloon into the aneurysm was detected seven months later. This report suggests that initial parent artery occlusion using balloons will not always induce permanent thrombosis of a large aneurysm, because the occlusion and thrombosis is strictly dependant on the position of the balloons that are used, and adjunct use of coils may be indicated.

ABSTRACT Intragastric balloons (IGBs) are commonly used for weight loss by mechanically distending the stomach. We present a case of a 35-year-old man who developed a left-sided varicocele 1 week after IGB insertion. Imaging revealed splenic vein compression and possible thrombosis. Urgent removal of the balloon was performed. After 1 week from removal, the patient showed significant improvement, with complete splenic vein recanalization. This case highlights the importance of early recognition of a rare complication of IGBs to avoid severe outcomes. To our knowledge, this is the first reporte

AbstractIntragastric balloons (IGBs) are an established treatment option for obesity. Major barriers to dissemination of IGBs include lack of long-term efficacy outcomes, safety concerns, cost, and tolerability. We developed a novel ingestible magnetically inflated balloon capsule (IMI-BC) in hopes of overcoming these challenges. The IMI-BC is significantly cheaper than IGBs currently available on the market.

AbstractElectronic voting (e-voting) systems have become more prevalent in recent years, but security concerns have also increased, especially regarding the privacy and verifiability of votes. As an essential ingredient for constructing secure e-voting systems, designers often employ zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), allowing voters to prove their votes are valid without revealing them. Invalid votes can then be discarded to protect verifiability without compromising the privacy of valid votes. General purpose zero-knowledge proofs (GPZKPs) such as ZK-SNARKs can be used to prove arbitrary statemen
