The impact of chest compression rates on quality of chest compressions : a manikin study [PDF]

, 2011
Purpose Chest compressions are often performed at a variable rate during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The effect of compression rate on other chest compression quality variables (compression depth, duty-cycle, leaning, performance decay over ...

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1095-1112, April 2025.
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

A smart mattress for detecting and correcting the prone position: A feasibility study toward night‐time SUDEP prevention

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of death in otherwise healthy patients with epilepsy; about 70% occurs during sleep, and nearly 90% of patients are found prone (face‐down). Following a nocturnal seizure, terminal apnea occurs between 2.5 and 10.8 min postictally (median ~ 5 min), defining a narrow but

Neonatal resuscitation and immediate newborn assessment and stimulation for the prevention of neonatal deaths: a systematic review, meta-analysis and Delphi estimation of mortality effect. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Of 136 million babies born annually, around 10 million require assistance to breathe. Each year 814,000 neonatal deaths result from intrapartum-related events in term babies (previously "birth asphyxia") and 1.03 million from complications of

Gallic Acid Attenuates Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension and Vascular Dysfunction by Inhibiting the Degradation of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Hypertension is a major cause of heart attack and stroke. Our recent study revealed that gallic acid (GA) exerts protective effects on pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction.

Silence around SUDEP and its impact on caregivers of individuals with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies: An international survey

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of epilepsy‐related mortality, particularly in individuals with Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEEs). The goal of this work is to assess SUDEP‐related knowledge, information practices, emotional and psychological impact, and the use of preventive measures

Mechanical versus manual chest compression for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (PARAMEDIC) : a pragmatic, cluster randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Mechanical chest compression devices have the potential to help maintain high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but despite their increasing use, little evidence exists for their effectiveness.
