Sudden cardiac arrest due to a single sodium channel mutation producing a mixed phenotype of Brugada and Long QT3 syndromes

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2016
Inherited arrhythmia syndromes are a known, albeit rare, cause of sudden cardiac arrest which may present with characteristic electrocardiogram changes in patients with structurally normal heart.

The feasibility of performing a randomised controlled trial of therapeutic hypothermia for neuroprotection after paediatric cardiac arrest in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes
Cardiac arrest in paediatric patients often results in death or survival with severe brain injury. Therapeutic hypothermia, lowering of core body temperature to 32 to 34⁰C may reduce injury to the brain in the period after circulation has been restored.

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

Iterative Navigator‐Based Retrospective Motion Correction for Multi‐Shot Brain MR Elastography and Evaluation of Single‐Shot Post‐Reconstruction Correction

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Brain MR elastography (MRE) is uniquely sensitive to subject motion, as even small phase deviations can produce large errors in the mechanical properties estimated. Existing motion correction strategies have not been validated for MRE and are often incompatible with complex multi‐shot or joint temporal reconstructions.

Heart Screenings in Young Athletes Identify Risk Factors for Sudden Cardiac Arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in the young is the leading cause of death in the U.S. afflicting over 300,000 individuals each year. SCA is also the leading cause of death in young athletes during sports participation, and typically the result of ...

Improving enteral nutrition in patients requiring neurological intensive care unit care: A retrospective study on a novel bedside nasointestinal tube placement technique

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to develop and assess a bedside nasojejunal tube placement technique designed for resource‐limited settings to address the specific challenges of enteral nutrition (EN) delivery in neurocritical care patients, particularly those at high risk of reflux and aspiration. The technique sought to overcome the drawbacks of

Sudden cardiac death in young people and athletes

open access: yesItalian Journal of Medicine, 2018
The sudden death of a young subject or athlete is a rare but tragic event. The most common mechanism of cardiac arrest leading to sudden death is abrupt ventricular fibrillation as a consequence of an underlying cardiovascular disease.

Accidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.

International criteria for reporting study quality for sudden cardiac arrest/death tool [PDF]

open access: yes
Studies reporting on the incidence of sudden cardiac arrest and/or death (SCA/D) in athletes commonly lack methodological and reporting rigor, which has implications for screening and preventative policy in sport. To date, there are no tools designed for
