Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) who require both oral anticoagulant (OAC) and antiplatelet therapy (APT) are exposed to a serious risk of bleeding. The aim this study was clarify the relationship among nutritional inflammation status long-term bleeding in patients requiring OACs APT after PCI.We performed PCI 3,718 consecutive between April 2011 March 2017, 302 whom were treated with APT. followed for up 3 years events, defined as Bleeding Academic Research...
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nosocomial infection is a growing concern in both adult and pediatric patients. The reason why TSS appears only some patients with MRSA remains unclear. In this study, we analyzed serial toxin-1 (TSST-1) antibody burn injury to investigate the mechanisms of infection. This study comprised our care unit from September, 2010 August, 2011. Serum samples were collected serially on admission, at 48 72 hours...
Abstract Hyperuricemia is related to an increased risk of cardiovascular events from a meta-analysis and antihyperuricemia agents may influence cardiac function. We evaluated the effect febuxostat on echocardiographic parameters diastolic function in patients with asymptomatic hyperuricemia as prespecified endpoint subanalysis PRIZE study. Patients study were assigned randomly either add-on treatment group or control only appropriate lifestyle modification. Of 514 overall study, 65 (31 34...
To the best of our knowledge, present report is first to describe immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) in a case Pneumocystis jirovecii (P. jirovecii) infection spleen. A 45-year-old, men who have sex with patient presented constipation, abdominal pain, nausea, fever, and weight loss. Human immunodeficiency virus P. pneumonia were diagnosed. Abdominal computed tomography revealed multiple, hypodense, cystic lesions Based on histopathological findings lesion obtained from...
Introduction The drug-coated balloon (DCB) is an attractive alternative to a drug-eluting stent (DES) for in-stent restenosis (ISR)1 and de novo small vessels2. However, the large profiles of DCBs make drug delivery lesion difficult. Because additive effect DCB over plain derived only from antiproliferative drug3, we hypothesised that adjunctive use guide extension catheter (GEC) might enhance efficacy by preventing loss improve clinical outcomes. Methods This before-and-after cohort study...
We reported, in our previous study, a patient with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) who was successfully treated extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Data on clinical courses and outcomes of critically ill patients COVID-19 Japan are limited the literature. This study aimed to describe Tokyo, Japan.This is single-center case series study. Patients mechanical ventilation (MV) were reviewed retrospectively. baseline characteristics, in-hospital treatment, collected.Between February 2, 2020,...
Case reports are fundamental to clinical medicine that trace back ancient Egypt preceding Hippocrates in the history of medicine. contribute academic development and new research. However, among cases presented at an annual conference for Japanese generalists, only a few were later published peer-reviewed journals, highlighting potential barriers regarding writing case reports, such as mentorship absence. This paper aimed offer guidance strategies novice young general physicians overcoming...
Abstract Hyperuricemia is reportedly associated with the progression of carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), a surrogate cardiovascular risks and events. However, factors IMT in patients asymptomatic hyperuricemia are largely unknown. In this post-hoc analysis multicenter, randomized PRIZE study, we analyzed data from total 326 who underwent ultrasonography blind manner at baseline 24 months to evaluate IMT. Mean maximum common artery (CCA) were measured central core laboratory. Factors...
Non-serogroupable Neisseria meningitidis (N. meningitidis), the most common type of N. in asymptomatic carriers, rarely causes infections. Most reported cases infection are patients with immunodeficiency, primarily complement deficiencies.A 54-year-old immunocompetent man was transferred to our hospital treat severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The patient presented cough producing a large amount purulent sputum, which considered an atypical presentation COVID-19. Gram staining...
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy our novel hemostatic technique for burn surgery. Significant bleeding remains a challenge in tangential excision wound. Although various techniques reduce intraoperative blood loss have been described, there an absence uniformity and consistency their application. In literature, surgery estimated be at least 123 ± 106 ml per percentage body surface area excised [1]. Recently we developed using silicone gel dressing (SI-AID®; ALCARE...
The residual risk of cardiovascular events after statin therapy might be explained, in part, by low levels serum n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs), especially Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexiaenoic (DHA). In addition, a recent study has shown that reduces the PUFAs levels. Purpose: We investigated whether Comprehensive Cardiac Rehabilitation (CCR) affects PUFA patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: Fifty-six consecutive AMI who underwent optimal medical...
