Atrial flutter ablation in a case of diuretic resistant constrictive pericarditis

Indian Heart Journal, 2015
We present a 66 year old gentleman with constrictive pericarditis and persistent atrial flutter. Initial management with oral loop diuretics was successful until he developed persistent atrial flutter.

Incidence and predictors of premature ventricular complexes following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and previous studies have focused on the epidemiology, mechanisms and risk factors for this global disease (Ryder and Benjamin 1999). Various studies have examined the mechanism,

Characteristics and overall survival in patients with T1 melanoma: A nationwide matched cohort study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Thin cutaneous malignant melanoma has an excellent ten‐year melanoma‐specific survival of 93%–97%. Moreover, the incidence of melanoma is higher among individuals with high socioeconomic status, which may protect them from other diseases. This nationwide matched cohort study found that patients with thin cutaneous malignant melanoma have a ...

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients with Septic Shock Trial

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) can be used at the point‐of‐care to identify venous overload and end‐organ congestion in an effort to individually tailor resuscitation and deresuscitation in patients with septic shock. Methods We conducted a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of VExUS‐guided fluid management in adult patients

Resolution of Levodopa/Dopa‐Decarboxylase Inhibitor—Associated Microscopic Colitis with Subcutaneous Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa: A Case Series and Review of the Literature

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Microscopic colitis (MC) typically presents with chronic, non‐bloody watery diarrhea. Diagnosis requires endoscopy with colonic mucosal biopsies. The etiology is multifactorial, with several medications implicated, although only a few cases have been attributed to oral levodopa/dopa‐decarboxylase inhibitor (LDDCI) therapy.

A Spatio‐Temporal Diffusion Model for Cardiac Real‐Time Imaging

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Real‐time imaging of cardiac function is favorable due to shorter scan times and becomes necessary when arrhythmia or inability to hold breath leads to insufficient quality of electrocardiogram (ECG)‐gated Cartesian cine. However, comparable spatio‐temporal resolution can only be achieved in undersampled settings, which in turn demand ...

Sex‐based differences in outcomes between male and female patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis following transcatheter aortic valve replacement: A meta‐analysis

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
Central illustration: Sex‐based differences in outcomes between male and female patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis following transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Abstract Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital anomaly leading to early aortic stenosis.

Hederagenin Attenuates Cardiac Remodeling by Targeting Phosphodiesterase 9A

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim New therapeutic strategies for heart failure are urgently needed. The protective effects of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)—protein kinase G (PKG) pathway on heart have been widely reported. Despite phosphodiesterase 9A (PDE9A) inhibitors combating cardiac remodeling, clinically available drugs are lacking. Hederagenin

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

Effects of Endocardial Microwave Energy Ablation [PDF]

, 2005
Until recently the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) consisted primarily of palliation, mostly in the form of pharmacological intervention. However because of recent advances in nonpharmacologic therapies, the current expectation of patients and ...
