Evaluating high‐sensitivity troponin levels in people with sickle cell disease in the emergency department

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
This study shows that sickle cell disease patients have elevated high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs‐cTnI) that is not considered clinically significant but are outside of the normal range. Elevated hs‐cTnI was associated with low haemoglobin and a history of heart failure.

Cardiotoxicity of BRAF/MEK inhibitors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma type B/B‐Raf proto‐oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors have transformed outcomes in cancer therapy, particularly in melanoma. However, cardiovascular toxicities are increasingly recognized in real‐world clinical practice.

Cost‐Effectiveness of NT‐proBNP–Guided Cardiovascular Screening in Chinese Adults With Type 2 Diabetes: Real‐World Evidence From the Hong Kong Diabetes Biobank

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Heart failure (HF) is among the most costly and prevalent complications of type 2 diabetes (T2D), with annual incremental healthcare costs reaching US$12800 in Hong Kong. We evaluated the cost‐effectiveness of NT‐proBNP‐guided cardiovascular risk stratification to guide cardioprotective treatment. Materials and Methods We developed a four‐

Acute and sudden death secondary to cardiac tamponade during anaesthetic recovery in a 21‐year‐old draught mule

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This case report is of educational value and contributes to the literature because it describes a unique death after anaesthesia due to cardiac tamponade from a rare cardiac neoplasm. In trying to diagnose the origin of chronic sinusitis, a geriatric mule mare was anaesthetised and during recovery, died acutely.

Iron Overload: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Monitoring

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron overload is associated with significant health risks, underscoring the importance of understanding its pathophysiology as well as establishing accurate diagnostic and monitoring methods. Chronic iron overload is associated with either genetic disorders characterized by excessive iron accumulation (hereditary hemochromatosis), or is ...

Prescription patterns of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients admitted to a tertiary health service with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: an opportunity to improve

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) improve symptoms, reduce hospitalisations and increase survival in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This study evaluated SGLT2i prescribing compliance in hospitalised patients with HFrEF at an Australian tertiary hospital.

Comparing clinical manifestations, treatment strategies and outcomes of Staphylococcus lugdunensis bacteraemia versus Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia – a retrospective cohort study

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase‐negative Staphylococcus that has been increasingly recognised as a significant pathogen capable of causing invasive infections similar to Staphylococcus aureus. Data comparing the clinical manifestations and outcomes of S. lugdunensis bacteraemia to S. aureus bacteraemia remain limited. This
