A Case of Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy and Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome Following Methadone Withdrawal. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TTC) and Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) are rare but reversible complications associated with catecholamine surges during methadone withdrawal. Prompt recognition of these stress‐related syndromes in patients undergoing methadone withdrawal is essential.

Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation for 78-min Cardiac Arrest due to Suspected Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis. [PDF]
A 37‐year‐old man had a cardiac arrest. His colleagues started CPR and called an ambulance to our emergency department. The ECMO team assessed him and initiated ECPR. Coronary, left ventricular, and pulmonary angiography showed no abnormalities. The patient had pupil dilation, prompting a bilateral decompressive craniectomy under heparin‐free ECMO ...

Mental stress, atheroma, myocardial ischaemia and injury: the link is inflammation
Increasing observational and experimental trial data have shown that mental stress can lead to an increase in adverse clinical cardiovascular events. Mental stress affects the heart by inducing ischaemia and precipitating myocardial infarction (MI) or direct myocardial injury. Mental stress leads to systemic inflammation. Inflammation is known to cause

Abstract The extent to which patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) should exercise remains unclear, given theoretical concerns over the perceived risk of blood pressure‐induced rupture, which is often catastrophic. This is especially pertinent during cardiopulmonary exercise testing, when patients are required to perform incremental exercise

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have

Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare but life‐threatening complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In this retrospective study of 81 patients, we investigated the efficacy and safety of percutaneous closure of postinfarction VSR. Our results show that delayed closure (3 weeks after AMI) is associated with a lower mortality rate and ...

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in the setting of severe hyponatremia and beer potomania: A case report
Severe hyponatremia as a trigger and potential etiology of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is poorly understood and under‐recognized. Our case emphasizes the need to consider Takotsubo cardiomyopathy as a potential differential diagnosis in patients presenting with severe hyponatremia from beer potomania in the setting of acute coronary syndrome without ...
