Determinants of cardiac output in health and heart failure

Experimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 5, Page 637-648, 1 May 2025.
Abstract Sustained physical exercise depends on delivery of oxygenated blood to exercising muscle. At least among healthy individuals, bulk transport of blood is tightly matched to metabolic demand, such that cardiac output increases by ∼6 L/min for every 1 L/min increase in oxygen uptake. Multiple factors contribute to the regulation of cardiac output,

Post‐Myocardial Infarction Remodeling and Hyperkinetic Remote Myocardium in Sheep Measured by Cardiac MRI Feature Tracking

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 1323-1335, March 2025.
Background Cardiac MRI feature tracking (FT) allows objective assessment of segmental left ventricular (LV) function following a myocardial infarction (MI), but its utilization in sheep, where interventions can be tested, is lacking. Purpose To apply and validate FT in a sheep model of MI and describe post‐MI LV remodeling.

Duration of Disease and Long‐Term Outcomes in Patients With Difficult‐To‐Treat Recurrent Pericarditis: A Chronic Condition Treated With Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs, Colchicine, Corticosteroids, and Anti–Interleukin‐1 Agents

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2025.
Objective We aimed to investigate the remission rate and disease duration in idiopathic or post–cardiac injury pericarditis and risk factors for disease duration and anti–interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) agent discontinuation. Methods This was a multicenter, longitudinal, observational study including 370 patients (51.4% female).

Cardiac surgery in a patient with implanted vagal nerve stimulator

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2018
The prevalence of epilepsy worldwide is around 0.5%–2% of the population. Antiepileptic medications are the first line of treatment in most of the cases but approximately 25%–30% epilepsy patients are refractory to the single or combination therapy.
