Hypoglycemia as a cause of sudden cardiac arrest during cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia: a case report and review of the literature

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2021
Background Sudden cardiac arrest during spinal anesthesia is a rare event. However, its management by an unprepared team is difficult and carries poor outcomes. Hypoglycemia as the cause of sudden cardiac arrest is rarely reported.

Pediatric Sudden Cardiac Arrest [PDF]

Pediatrics, 2012
Pediatric sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), which can cause sudden cardiac death if not treated within minutes, has a profound effect on everyone: children, parents, family members, communities, and health care providers. Preventing the tragedy of pediatric SCA, defined as the abrupt and unexpected loss of heart function, remains a concern to all.

Selective parenchymal clamping in open partial nephrectomy: Early experience with a low cost, reusable novel parenchymal clamp

BJUI Compass, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 88-95, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study is to present our initial experience with a novel parenchymal clamp (NPC) developed to allow partial nephrectomies (PN) to be performed without whole kidney ischaemia. We compare patients who underwent PN with the NPC with those undergoing standard PNs. Methods The NPC applies pressure only to the portion

Evaluation of factors associated with selection for coronary angiography and in‐hospital mortality among patients presenting with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest without ST‐segment elevation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1159-1170, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Clinical factors favouring coronary angiography (CA) selection and variables associated with in‐hospital mortality among patients presenting with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) without ST‐segment elevation (STE) remain unclear.

Underweight and obesity are related to higher mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography: The KARDIO invasive cardiology register study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1242-1251, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background In patients with some cardiovascular disease conditions, slightly elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with a lower mortality risk (termed “obesity paradox”). It is uncertain, however, if this obesity paradox exists in patients who have had invasive cardiology procedures.

QT and Tpeak‐Tend interval variability: Predictive electrical markers of hospital stay length and mortality in acute decompensated heart failure. Preliminary data

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1192-1198, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background As previously reported, an increased repolarization temporal imbalance induces a higher risk of total/cardiovascular mortality. Hypothesis The aim of this study was to assess if the electrocardiographic short period markers of repolarization temporal dispersion could be predictive of the hospital stay length and mortality in ...

Predictors and morphological properties of culprit healed plaques in patients with angina pectoris

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1199-1210, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Plaque healing may serve a vital function in the natural progression of atherosclerotic disease. This study sought to investigate predictors and morphological characteristics of healed plaque (HP) among angina pectoris (AP) patients.

The mortality for the implantable cardiac defibrillator in nonischemic cardiomyopathy: An updated systematic review and meta‐analysis

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1163-1170, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) is common for the management of nonischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM). Mortality is a crucial issue for patients with NICM. We can understand the mortality events of ICD versus medicine treatment via a systemic review and meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials.

The brain‐before‐heart strategy for coronary artery bypass grafting in the severely atherosclerotic aorta: A single‐institution experience

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1264-1271, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Severe atherosclerosis of the ascending aorta (SAA) in patients undergoing surgical revascularization by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is becoming an increasing problem as more elderly patients are diagnosed with coronary artery disease.
