Milrinone in Enterovirus 71 Brain Stem Encephalitis

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) was implicated in a widespread outbreak of hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) across the Asia Pacific area since 1997 and has also been reported sporadically in patients with brain stem encephalitis. Neurogenic shock with pulmonary

Prognostic value of resting coronary sinus flow determined by phase-contrast cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2021
Background Phase-contrast cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) of the coronary sinus has emerged as a non-invasive method to measure coronary sinus blood flow (CSBF) and coronary flow reserve (CFR).

Improved ventricular function during inhalation of PGI(2) aerosol partly relies on enhanced myocardial contractility [PDF]

, 2005
Inhaled prostacyclin (PGI(2)) aerosol induces selective pulmonary vasodilation. Further, it improves right ventricular ( RV) function, which may largely rely on pulmonary vasodilation, but also on enhanced myocardial contractility.

Characterizing Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementia in a Hypertension Population Within the State of Florida Using Electronic Health Record–Based Data

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hypertension is a known modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia (ADRD). However, it is unknown how variance in hypertension control, antihypertensive medications, and social determinants of health, such as social deprivation index (SDI), influence the risk of developing ADRD.

Extensive Variability in Vasoactive Agent Therapy: A Nationwide Survey in Chinese Intensive Care Units

Chinese Medical Journal, 2015
Background: Inconsistencies in the use of the vasoactive agent therapy to treat shock are found in previous studies. A descriptive study was proposed to investigate current use of vasoactive agents for patients with shock in Chinese intensive care ...

What role does the right side of the heart play in circulation? [PDF]

, 2006
Right ventricular failure (RVF) is an underestimated problem in intensive care. This review explores the physiology and pathophysiology of right ventricular function and the pulmonary circulation.

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Novel evaluation of pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic lung disease using perfusion SPECT/CT: A pilot study

Pulmonary Circulation
In pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with chronic lung disease (CLD), identifying patients who would benefit from pulmonary vasodilators is a significant clinical challenge because the presence of PH is associated with poorer survival.

Redox signaling, Nox5 and vascular remodeling in hypertension [PDF]

, 2015
Purpose of review: Extensive data indicate a role for reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox signaling in vascular damage in hypertension. However, molecular mechanisms underlying these processes remain unclear, but oxidative post-translational ...
