A Review of Neurogenic Stunned Myocardium. [PDF]

, 2017
Neurologic stunned myocardium (NSM) is a phenomenon where neurologic events give rise to cardiac abnormalities. Neurologic events like stroke and seizures cause sympathetic storm and autonomic dysregulation that result in myocardial injury.

Phosphatemia is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of several muscle damage biomarkers. Methods Data from Piemonte and Valle d'Aosta Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (PARALS) were considered for this study. Survival was defined as the time from diagnosis to death, tracheostomy, or the censoring date.

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Valor prognóstico da troponina I de alta sensibilidade versus troponina T nas síndromes coronarianas agudas Prognostic value of high-sensitivity troponin I versus troponin T in acute coronary syndromes

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2012
FUNDAMENTO: Apesar da superior precisão diagnóstica das troponinas cardíacas de alta sensibilidade, seu valor prognóstico ainda não foi validado contra troponinas cardíacas convencionais.

Providing Rapid Out of Hospital Acute Cardiovascular Treatment 4 (PROACT‐4)

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Whether prehospital point‐of‐care (POC) troponin further accelerates the time to diagnosis in patients with chest pain (CP) is unknown. We conducted a randomized trial of POC‐Troponin testing in the ambulance. Methods and Results Patients with

Serial Troponin for Early Detection of Nivolumab Cardiotoxicity in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients.

The Oncologist, 2018
BACKGROUND Rare cases of severe myocarditis are reported during treatment with nivolumab. Troponin, a biomarker of cardiac damage, is a key component of the diagnostic workup of many cardiac disorders, including myocarditis.

Comparison between soluble ST2 and high-sensitivity troponin I in predicting short-term mortality for patients presenting to the Emergency Department with chest pain [PDF]

, 2016
Background: High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) and the soluble isoform of suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) are useful prognostic biomarkers in acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Aminated graphene nanosheet stimulates the maturation of hiPSCs‐derived cardiomyocytes in vitro and enhances their survival in vivo

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Aminated graphene (G‐NH2) niche matrix plays a pivotal role in precisely manipulating cardiac differentiation and maturation of hiPSCs. The molecular mechanism underlying cardiomyocyte maturation is closely linked to the PDGF‐β signaling pathway. Cardiomyocytes derived from the G‐NH2 matrix exhibit enhanced activity and functionality in vivo.

Validity of a Novel Point-of-Care Troponin Assay for Single-Test Rule-Out of Acute Myocardial Infarction

JAMA cardiology, 2018
Importance Emergency department (ED) investigations of patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are time consuming, partly because of the turnaround time of laboratory tests.
