A 71-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital after consuming food due to acute malnutrition and abdominal pain. Reduced patency of all jejunoileal branches and the superior mesenteric artery was observed in the abdominal computed tomography scan. Abdominal angina was caused by atherosclerosis, the frequent use of triptans for recurrent migraines, the JAK2 mutation, and a high platelet count. The patient’s complete parenteral nutrition was not spared, despite the development of a collateral circulation preventing fatal acute ischemia.

PlumX Metrics
PlumX Metrics provide insights into the ways people interact with individual pieces of research output (articles, conference proceedings, book chapters, and many more) in the online environment. Examples include, when research is mentioned in the news or is tweeted about. Collectively known as PlumX Metrics, these metrics are divided into five categories to help make sense of the huge amounts of data involved and to enable analysis by comparing like with like.
