Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

Anesthetic management of peadiatric severe pulmonary stenosis for balloon valvotomy in non-operating room anesthesia: A case of 4 year old male child with severe pulmonary stenosis with peak pressure gradient of 120mmhg underwent balloon pulmonary valvotomy under general anesthesia in non-operating room anesthesia [PDF]
Balloon pulmonary valvotomy is the treatment of choice in patients with isolated pulmonary stenosis and has shown good long-term results. It is generally considered a safe procedure with fewer complications. We report a case of 4-year-old male child with

ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.
