Stress Cardiomyopathy (Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy)
In this article we describe a rare clinical condition of stress cardiomyopathy (takotsubo cardiomyopathy) for which we, despite controversy and lack of data, identified the main pathogenic pathways (including the direct toxic effect of catecholamines on ...

Summary: In a porcine model of brief ischemia leading to reversible stunning in the absence of tissue necrosis, we demonstrated delayed release of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) that exceeded the 99th percentile for normal animals 60 min after reperfusion and

Assessment of Fluid Status in Dialysis: Clinical Importance and Diagnostic Tools [PDF]
Fluid status is crucial for dialysis patients. Volume overload is a major cardiovascular risk factor. Nevertheless, volume depletion is associated with myocardial stunning and cerebral ischaemia.

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Translational studies to understand myocardial stunning in acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
Myocardial stunning is a reversible contractile dysfunction that persists despite the resolution of myocardial ischemia. It is commonly associated with acute myocardial infarction. However, myocardial stunning also occurs in other acute cardiomyopathies,

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) drive metastasis, relapse and resist conventional apoptosis‐inducing chemotherapies. We report a cobalt(III)‐cyclam complex with pyrene and diflunisal moieties that reduces the viability of breast CSCs at low micromolar concentrations.

Three-vessel myocardial bridging: A possible cause of myocardial stunning
The authors report a rare clinical case of myocardial bridging of the three major coronary arteries, which manifested in an unusual way with severe biventricular dysfunction in the context of tachycardia.

Effect of Ischemic Preconditioning on Myocardial Stunning in the Rabbit [PDF]
Recent studies have unequivocally shown that preconditioning with brief ischemia limits myocardial necrosis and arrhythmias following coronary artery occlusion. However, effects of preconditioning on myocardial stunning remain poorly characterized.

Tako-tsubo syndrome and hypovolemia
Tako-tsubo syndrome (TTS) is a rare disorder characterized by reversible apical left ventricular ballooning usually triggered by an emotional and/or physical stress and often mimicking an acute myocardial infarction.
