Delayed presentation of ventricular septal defect secondary to penetrating cardiac trauma following stab wound to the chest

Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2008
<ul><li>Ventricular septal defect represents an uncommon sequel of penetrating cardiac trauma. A high index of suspicion, follow- up, and a complete evaluation of the patient who survives a penetrating heart injury is required.

Alogliptin Reduces Oxidative Stress in Cardiomyocytes and Ameliorates Diabetic Cardiomyopathy via the AURKB/NLGN2 Signaling

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus. This study investigated the effects of alogliptin on DCM and its underlying mechanisms. A DCM model was constructed and treated with alogliptin. Downstream targets of alogliptin were screened using bioinformatics analysis.
