Myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury
Cardiovascular Pathology, 2005Myocardial ischemic injury results from severe impairment of coronary blood supply and produces a spectrum of clinical syndromes. As a result of intensive investigation over decades, a detailed understanding is now available of the complexity of the response of the myocardium to an ischemic insult.

Myocardial injury due to lightning
International Journal of Legal Medicine, 1997The report deals with a 27-year-old male who was standing in a tent and was injured by lightning as it struck a tree about 1.5 m away. He immediately lost consciousness and exhibited ventricular fibrillation when the emergency physician arrived. A clinical picture of hypoxaemic brain damage emerged after initially successful resuscitation.

Phenylpropanolamine and Associated Myocardial Injury
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1996We report the cases of two patients without significant past medical history in whom developed myocardial injury attributed to the use of anorectic agents containing phenylpropanolamine. The pharmacologic properties of phenylpropanolamine and the current management of common adverse reactions to phenylpropanolamine are briefly reviewed.

Periprocedural myocardial infarction and injury
European Heart Journal: Acute Cardiovascular CareAbstractPeriprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) and injury, pertinent to both cardiac and non-cardiac procedures, have gained increasing recognition in clinical practice. Over time, diverse definitions for diagnosing PMI have been developed and validated among patient populations undergoing coronary revascularization.

Lysosomes and myocardial cellular injury
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1972Abstract The stability of myocardial lysosomes in left posterior papillary muscle sites of predictable injury was investigated after 1, 2 and 4 hours of acute partial ligation of the left circumflex coronary artery of the dog heart. Lysosome stability in the papillary muscle locus of injury was significantly reduced within 1 hour and continued to ...

A model for experimental myocardial injury
Journal of Pharmacological Methods, 1980The two most commonlj/ used experimental models for production of myocardial injury are ligation of the coronary arteries (Harris, 1950; Goldfarb and Gott, 1968) and injection of microspheres’(Agress et al., 1952) or metallic mercury (Lluck et al., 1969) into the coronary ostea.

Statins and the Response to Myocardial Injury
American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs, 2005The benefits of long-term statin (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor) treatment for preventing coronary events have been well documented in several large-scale prospective clinical trials. By influencing the determinants of myocardial injury, statins may produce direct cardioprotective effects in the ischemic myocardium and prevent further damaging recurrent ...

Neutrophil mediated myocardial injury
International Journal of Biochemistry, 19931. Activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) were shown to exacerbate ischemic myocardial injury and their activation is modulated by complement system, platelet activating factor, arachidonic acid metabolites, adenosine and nitric oxide. 2. Mechanisms of injurious PMN effect on ischemic myocardium are related to both mechanical and biochemical ...

Neutrophils and myocardial reperfusion injury
Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1996Ischaemia induces an acute inflammatory response in myocardial tissue with an early phase of neutrophil accumulation, which is accelerated by reperfusion. In experimental models, interventions that deplete neutrophils or inhibit their function cause a significant reduction in myocardial infarct size. These cells, therefore, may exacerbate tissue injury

Biomarkers in acute myocardial injury
Translational Research, 2012Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The proper diagnosis of ACS requires reliable and accurate biomarker assays to detect evidence of myocardial necrosis. Currently, troponin is the gold standard biomarker for myocardial injury and is used commonly in conjunction with creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and
