Antiplatelet versus anticoagulation treatment for patients with heart failure in sinus rhythm.
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2016 BACKGROUND Morbidity in patients with chronic heart failure is high, and this predisposes them to thrombotic complications, including stroke and thromboembolism, which in turn contribute to high mortality. Oral anticoagulants (e.g.

The ductal network in the human testis and epididymis: What belongs to which?
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract The testes and epididymis are traversed by a system of tubules in which sperm cells are generated, matured, nourished, and transported. Among these are the efferent ductules, which connect the rete testis to the duct of the epididymis. In the Terminologia Anatomica (TA), the efferent ductules are assigned to the testicles, while numerous ...

Pharmacological analysis of sinus rhythm.
Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 1993 The SA nodal pacemaker activity is regulated dominantly by autonomic nervous elements, i.e., sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous factors. In addition, circulatory bioactive substances and physicochemical factors also modify changes in sinus rate. Exogenously applied substances exert their actions on sinus rate directly and/or indirectly.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery vasospasm following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication that can lead to myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Nitroglycerin‐resistant vasospasm, particularly involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), poses significant diagnostic and ...
