The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its promising ...

Scaled Small-Gain Approach to Robust Control of LPV Systems with Uncertain Varying Delay [PDF]
Linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems with uncertainty in time-varying delays are subject to performance degradation and instability. In this line, we investigate the stability of such systems invoking an input-output stability approach. By considering explicit bounds on the delay rate and time-varying delay uncertainty, the scaled small-gain theorem ...

The Prevalence of Orthostatic Hypotension: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is associated with increased risk of falls, cognitive impairment and death, as well as a reduced quality of life. Although it is presumed to be common in older people, estimates of its prevalence vary widely.

From Allergy to Angina: A Unique Presentation of Kounis Syndrome
ABSTRACT Kounis syndrome (KS) is a rare condition characterized by acute coronary syndrome (ACS) triggered by an allergic reaction. This report presents a case of high‐risk ACS associated with a food allergy. A 53‐year‐old male with no prior medical history presented to the emergency department with itching, facial swelling, chest tightness, shortness ...

Heart Rate Variability during Periods of Low Blood Pressure as a Predictor of Short-Term Outcome in Preterms [PDF]
Efficient management of low blood pressure (BP) in preterm neonates remains challenging with a considerable variability in clinical practice. The ability to assess preterm wellbeing during episodes of low BP will help to decide when and whether hypotension treatment should be initiated.

SPINAL ANAESTHESIA-INDUCED HYPOTENSION IN OBSTETRICS: PREVENTION AND THERAPY
SUMMARY Regional centro-axial anaesthesia, primarily spinal block, is the preferred method of anaesthesia for elective caesarean section because it entails fewer risks for the mother and the foetus compared to general anaesthesia.

ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...
