European experience on the practical use of levosimendan in patients with acute heart failure syndromes [PDF]

, 2005
The novel calcium sensitizer and ATP-dependent potassium channel opener levosimendan has been introduced for routine use in several European countries. Recent reports on clinical experience confirm the positive hemodynamic results and beneficial clinical

Life‐Threatening Bradycardia in Anti‐NMDA‐Receptor Encephalitis and a Novel Use for Permanent Pacing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (pNMDARE) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder that can cause severe autonomic dysfunction, including symptomatic bradycardia and asystole. Dysautonomia can last for years, making it very challenging to manage.

Significant Improvement in Severely Stunned Left Ventricle after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention [PDF]

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2008
This is a case of severely stunned left ventricle which occurred after a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction in a 76-year-old woman who was a known case of three-vessel disease. Her symptoms and cardiac function responded well to revascularization.

The temporal trends and short‐ and long‐term mortality of people with acute myocardial infarction and rheumatoid arthritis: a nationwide cohort study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Aims We investigated whether a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects the quality of inpatient acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care and long‐term mortality post‐AMI. Methods We analysed data from 784,091 adults, 6,047 with a diagnosis of RA, from England and Wales hospitalised with AMI between 2005 and 2019 from the MINAP registry, linked ...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 derived cardioprotection does not utilize a KATP-channel dependent pathway: mechanistic insights from human supply and demand ischemia studies. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) amide (GLP-1) protects against stunning and cumulative left ventricular dysfunction in humans. The mechanism remains uncertain but GLP-1 may act by opening mitochondrial K-ATP channels in a similar fashion to ...

Heat Shock Protein 70 Protects the Heart from Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through Inhibition of p38 MAPK Signaling. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundHeat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) has been shown to exert cardioprotection. Intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) overload induced by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) activation contributes to cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury ...

Myocardial stunning associated with a myocardial bridge [PDF]

International Journal of Cardiology, 2002
A myocardial bridge is a discrete systolic constricnormal and tests for viral infections screened negation of a coronary artery, most commonly the left tive. She received oral aspirin (100 mg daily) and anterior descending, caused by some myocardial propranolol (20 mg t.i.d.) and remained asymptomattissue ‘bridging’ the vessel [1]. Regarded for long ic

The Space Within: How Architected Voids Promote Tissue Formation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the role of void spaces in tissue engineering scaffolds and examines four key methods for introducing porosity into hydrogels at different scales. It discusses sacrificial templating, microgels, phase separation, and 3D printing, highlighting principles, advantages, and limitations. It also addresses emerging strategies integrating
