Right Ventricular Infarction Mimicking Anterior Infarction [PDF]
It is rare to observe ST elevation in anterior derivations caused by right ventricular branch occlusion. We described the case of a patient with unstable angina who developed acute right ventricular myocardial infarction with ST‐segment elevation in anterior precordial leads (V1–V4) shortly after coronary angiography.

Neuropeptide‐Y levels in ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction: relationship with coronary microvascular function, heart failure, and mortality [PDF]
Background The sympathetic cotransmitter, neuropeptide Y (NPY), is released into the coronary sinus during ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction and can constrict the coronary microvasculature.

Altered gene expression pattern in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with acute myocardial infarction. [PDF]
In the acute phase of STEMI, dozens of genes from several pathways linked with lipid/glucose metabolism, platelet function and atherosclerotic plaque stability show altered expression.

Neutrophils incite and macrophages avert electrical storm after myocardial infarction [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death, arising from abnormal electrical conduction, occurs frequently in patients with coronary heart disease. Myocardial ischemia simultaneously induces arrhythmia and massive myocardial leukocyte changes.

Two cases of splenic infarction due to torsion of wandering spleen requiring laparoscopic splenectomy in adolescent girls [PDF]
Wandering spleen is a rare condition in which the spleen is not found in its usual location or presentation. Its vascular pedicle can be twisted easily, and compromised vasculature of spleen.

Occurrence of vasospasm and infarction in relation to a focal monitoring sensor in patients after SAH: placing a bet when placing a probe? [PDF]
Introduction: Vasospastic brain infarction is a devastating complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Using a probe for invasive monitoring of brain tissue oxygenation or blood flow is highly focal and may miss the site of cerebral ...

Class of antiretroviral drugs and the risk of myocardial infarction [PDF]
BACKGROUND:We have previously demonstrated an association between combination antiretroviral therapy and the risk of myocardial infarction. It is not clear whether this association differs according to the class of antiretroviral drugs.
