Background: The multicenter, international, randomized, blinded, sham-controlled RADIANCE-HTN SOLO trial (A Study of the ReCor Medical Paradise System in Clinical Hypertension) demonstrated a 6.3 mm Hg greater reduction daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure (BP) at 2 months by endovascular ultrasound renal denervation (RDN) compared with sham procedure among patients not treated antihypertensive medications. We report 6-month results after addition recommended standardized stepped-care...
The COVID-19 pandemic is a highly contagious viral illness which conventionally manifests primarily with respiratory symptoms. We report case whose first manifestation of was pericarditis, in the absence symptoms, without any serious complications. Cardiac involvement various forms possible COVID-19. present where classic signs or only evident disease. This highlights an atypical presentation and need for high index suspicion to allow early diagnosis limit spread by isolation.
Abstract Background Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a recognized cause of acute syndrome (ACS). Pregnancy, the postpartum period, and illicit drug use have all been reported as potential triggers. Case summary We describe case 41-year-old patient who presented to emergency department with chest pain in setting recent cocaine amphetamine use. The was 4 months following an uncomplicated pregnancy. Past medical history non-contributory, no known risk factors for ischaemic heart...
Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) protects against ischaemia-reperfusion injury, but it is unclear whether could also attenuate adverse cardiac remodelling post-MI. We hypothesised that RIC generates a blood born signal capable of reducing the hypertrophic response by modulating gene expression associated with remodelling. Superfusate was collected from conditioned Langendorff perfused rat hearts (RIC-superfusate). Blood taken healthy volunteers after three cycles upper arm (RIC-serum)....
This study assessed the cardio- and renoprotective effect of remote ischemic Preconditioning (PreC) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Myocyte necrosis contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) occur frequently PCI are associated with subsequent cardiovascular events. Methods: Two hundred consecutive elective normal baseline troponin-I (cTnI) values were recruited. Subjects systematically allocated into 2 groups: 100 received PreC (created by three 5 min inflations a...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Synchronised DC cardioversion is a commonly used treatment option for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial distension predisposing factor AF, and fibrosis of the myocardium may prevent remodelling atrium to normalised parameters following cardioversion, with fibrotic begetting inevitable recurrence AF. <h3>Methods</h3> We retrospectively investigated echocardiographic appearances 89 patients prior elective determine whether simple measurements dimensions in...
<h3>Aim</h3> Remote conditioning, whereby intermittent non-critical ischaemia of remote peripheral muscle can protect cardiac from ischaemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury even when applied after the onset ischaemia, has emerged as a potential therapeutic manoeuvre for reducing I-R injury. Whether such protection is mediated via serum factors and whether development impaired in disease states unclear. We sought to develop cell based model assessing injury, utilised this screen sera both control...

A 52 year old man presented to the outpatients' department with dyspnoea, dry cough, and weight loss. The breathlessness had progressed over two years. Also 41 kg of loss in 12 months was concerning.

A 66-year-old woman underwent a pacemaker implantation following symptomatic pause. The lead inadvertently punctured the ventricle during implantation, penetrating through to left internal mammary artery, causing slow hemorrhage. There was subsequent circulatory collapse with shock. We describe this rare yet life-threatening condition. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
