Mechanical postconditioning can alleviate myocardial I/R injury. The present study aimed to investigate whether pharmacological postconditioning using hydrogen- rich saline may alleviate mitochondrial dysfunction by preserving complex III activity following I/R injury in rats.
In our study, 96 male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham, I/R, I/R with hydrogen-rich saline, and I/... Read more

Twiddler’s syndrome is rare, and thus it is remarkable to diagnose it twice in a short time in independent patients and to notice that both patients had paranoid schizophrenia. This strongly indicates a connection between Twiddler’s syndrome and schizophrenia, and it is important to be aware of Twiddler’s syndrome as a cause of pacemaker-failure ... Read more

Case report about lethal, acute intestinal necrosis, induced by low-flow during beta-blocker intoxication in a multimorbid patient with chronic arteriosclerotic occlusion of the coeliac trunk, diagnosed by CT.
Knowledge about this rare, albeit serious condition and awareness of the risk factors and the clinical picture are of the utmost importance in order to diagnose and treat intestinal ischemia and ... Read more

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in majority of cases are congenital in origin. In our center we found a case, history of dyspnoea on exertion of long time, a short duration of malena and epistaxis. On clinical examination, we assumed pulmonary embolism and investigated with Computed Tomography (CT) Thorax and Pulmonary angiogram. Our findings were faint bruit over right mammary area and ...

The anomalous artery origin of the left coronary from the pulmonary artery is a rare cardiac anomaly with a low incidence and high mortality rate of 1/3000000, and the anomalous artery origin of the single coronary from the pulmonary artery is rarer and the mortality rate is higher. We summarized the current literature reports, a total of 21 cases were reported, including 16 ... Read more

Syncope or documented Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) occurring during exercise could be a sign of Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricle Cardiomyopathy (ARVC). ARVC is a difficult diagnosis and certain criteria (major and minor) must be met. Echocardiography and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI) are essential in diagnosing ARVC where right ventricular dilatation with hypertrophied trabeculae may be a sign of ARVC.

Complementary therapies have traditionally been excluded from cardiology research, often as a result of ethnocentric and paternalistic medical and so on and so on. In this pilot study of cardiac patients with ischemic heart disease at an Australian university (n=321), we investigated the use of Tarot and telepathy as potential alternatives to traditional methods of cardiac surgery such as transplant ...

A total of 41 patients with closed diaphyseal fractures of the humerus and 57 patients aged from 21 to 66 years with closed diaphyseal fractures of the bones of the tibia in the conditions of Ilizarov treatment were examined. In the bone regenerate, the Blood Flow Velocity (BFV) was studied by Doppler. In patients of the 1st group, an increase in BFV ... Read more
