Prediction of coarctation of the aorta in fetuses with transposition of great arteries: Inverted ventricular discrepancy as a predictor of arch repair in TGA

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Fetal MV/TV ratio offers a simple and reproducible marker of AAO in TGA with a cutoff of ≥ 1.0 accurately predicting the need for arch repair. This simple echocardiographic marker improves prenatal risk stratification and surgical planning, facilitating prenatal counseling. Abstract Introduction Transposition of great arteries (TGA) with coarctation of

Death Determination, the Dying Process and the Dead Donor Rule: A Critical Analysis of the Italian 20‐Minute No‐Touch Period in Controlled Donation After Circulatory Determination of Death

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Italy, controlled Donation after Circulatory Determination of Death (cDCDD) requires a 20‐min no‐touch period documented by continuous electrocardiographic monitoring. Since Italian law adopts a single brain‐based definition of death, this procedure serves as an indirect determination of the irreversible cessation of all brain functions ...

A Case of Total Aortic Arch Graft Replacement for Recurrent Distal Aortic Arch Aneurysm.

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 1998
遠位弓部嚢状大動脈瘤に対する瘤切除パッチ閉鎖術後6年で, 同部位に嚢状瘤の再発を認めた症例に対して弓部大動脈全置換術を施行し, 良好な結果を得たので文献的考察を加えて報告した. 症例は72歳, 男性. 初回手術後6年目ころから嗄声の出現を認めるようになり胸部X線写真, 胸部造影CT検査, 血管造影検査で最大径6cmの遠位弓部嚢状大動脈瘤と診断された. 手術は胸骨正中切開法にて動脈瘤に到達したのち, 左第1対角枝への冠動脈バイパス術と, 選択的脳灌流法を補助手段とした弓部大動脈全置換術を施行した. 術後経過は良好で術後28日目で退院となった. 嚢状瘤に対するパッチ閉鎖術は遠隔期に動脈瘤の再発を認める可能性があり, その手術適応は慎重にすべきと考えた.

Inhibition of late sodium current prevents pathological hyperactivation of calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase IIδ in a murine model of acute doxorubicin‐related cardiotoxicity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly effective anthracycline, whose clinical application for cancer is limited by cardiotoxicity. The mechanisms underlying doxorubicin‐induced toxic cardiomyopathy (DICM) involve electrophysiological remodelling with intracellular Na+ overload because of increased late INa and hyperactivation of

MOBILE and the provision of total joint replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Modern joint replacements have been available for 45 years, but we still do not have clear indications for these interventions, and we do not know how to optimize the outcome for patients who agree to have them done.
