5-Fluorouracil–Induced Coronary Vasospasm
Background Cardiotoxicity is a rare but well-documented adverse effect of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The underlying cause of this side effect of 5-FU is uncertain. Methods We present a case report of a 63-year-old man treated for metastatic colon cancer who experienced chest pain while being treated with the FOLFIRI regimen.

Objectives The aim of this study is to generate hypotheses about unknown drugs associated with the onset or worsening of Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) and to explore their potential pathophysiologic mechanisms through a mixed disproportionality/clustering analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO) pharmacovigilance database.

Association Between Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection and Myocardial Infarction Among People Living With HIV in the United States. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is common among people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH). Extrahepatic manifestations of HCV, including myocardial infarction (MI), are a topic of active research. MI is classified into types, predominantly

Mechanisms responsible for coronary vasospasm
Studies have been conducted on isolated segments of the left circumflex coronary artery of the dog to gain information on the mechanism or mechanisms of vasospasm. Coronary arteries contain both postjunctional alpha 1- and beta 1-adrenoceptors, and both are accessible to norepinephrine released from the sympathetic nerves.

ST segment elevation following adenosine administration in the inferior leads (II, III, aVF). ABSTRACT Adenosine, used to treat paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, commonly causes flushing, sweating, palpitations, and hypotension. Rarely, it may induce ST‐segment elevation with chest pain, suggesting transient myocardial ischemia or coronary ...

Protective Effect of Silymarin Against Paclitaxel‐Induced Cardiotoxicity
Paclitaxel, a potent chemotherapeutic agent, induces oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis leading to cardiotoxicity. In this study, silymarin supplementation significantly reduced oxidative stress markers, downregulated inflammatory cytokines (IL‐1β, TNF‐α, NF‐κB), and restored the balance between pro‐ and anti‐apoptotic proteins in rat heart ...

An unexpected complication of a percutaneous coronary angioplasty [PDF]
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is characterized by transient ventricular dysfunction, classically in its apical and mid segments in the absence of coronary lesions, and is often observed after intense stressful events and occasionally associated to an ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims As a safer approach for cerebral angiography, there is still a lack of further systematic research on the distal radial artery approach. To compare the safety and efficacy of the distal radial artery approach versus the conventional (proximal) radial artery approach for cerebral angiography, providing evidence for ...
