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.

Impact of heart rate on myocardial salvage in timely reperfused patients with STSegment elevation myocardial infarction. new insights from cardiovascular magnetic resonance [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Previous studies evaluating the progression of the necrotic wave in relation to heart rate were carried out only in animal models of ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Cardiac biomarkers by point-of-care testing - back to the future? [PDF]
The measurement of the cardiac troponins (cTn), cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) are integral to the management of patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Hospital Readmission After Traumatic Brain Injury Hospitalization in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the risk of hospital readmission after an index hospitalization for TBI in older adults. Methods Using data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, we used propensity score matching of individuals with an index TBI‐related hospitalization to individuals with (1) non‐TBI hospitalizations (primary analysis)
