Despite significant advances in our understanding of the biology determining systemic energy homeostasis, treatment obesity remains a medical challenge. Activation AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been proposed as an attractive strategy for and its complications. AMPK is conserved, ubiquitously expressed, heterotrimeric serine/threonine whose short-term activation multiple beneficial metabolic effects. Whether these translate into long-term benefits complications unknown. Here, we...
Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) has become one of the most common procedures in electrophysiology lab with rapidly increasing volumes. Peri-procedural anaesthesia AF varies between centres, from general to deep or conscious sedation. The aim this survey was assess current sedation practices worldwide and its evolution over last decade. Centres regularly performing responded an online survey. A total 297 centres participated Overall, median (interquartile range) number...
Hypertension, diabetes and obesity are not isolated findings, but a series of interacting interactive physiologic derangements. Taking into account genetic background lifestyle behavior, AI (autonomic imbalance) could be common root for RHTN (resistant hypertension) or plus type 2 (T2D) comorbidity development. Moreover, circadian disruption can lead to metabolic vasomotor impairments such as obesity, insulin resistance resistant hypertension. In order better understand the triggered...
As neuropatias periféricas (NP) constituem um grupo heterogêneo de doenças que afetam os nervos periféricos, resultando em sintomas como dor, fraqueza muscular e perda sensibilidade. O avanço nas técnicas diagnóstico, exames genéticos, biomarcadores tecnologias imagem, tem permitido a detecção precoce dessas condições, o favorece uma abordagem terapêutica mais eficaz personalizada. A identificação rápida das é crucial para melhorar prognóstico, possibilitando implementação tratamentos...
Resumo A fibrilação atrial é a arritmia sustentada mais comum na prática clínica com predileção pelas faixas etárias avançadas. Com o envelhecimento populacional, as projeções para próximas décadas são alarmantes. Além de sua importância epidemiológica, destacada por suas repercussões clínicas, incluindo fenômenos tromboembólicos, hospitalizações e maior taxa mortalidade. Seu mecanismo fisiopatológico complexo, envolvendo uma associação fatores hemodinâmicos, estruturais, eletrofisiológicos...
to hemodinâmico, é fundamental na indicação do método e no sucesso da investigação [14][15][16] .Os sintomas relacionados a fatores desencadeantes deverão ser avaliados sob ação desses estímulos.Quando os forem severos, colocando em risco vida paciente, investigados regime de internação hospitalar.
Since 2009, when the Brazilian Society of Cardiology released Guidelines for Atrial Fibrillation,1 important studies on subject have been published, particularly new oral anticoagulants (NOACs). At least three these drugs (dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban) are currently approved clinical use in Brazil. In addition to pharmacological treatment, data related non-pharmacological notably radiofrequency ablation (RA) procedure, expanded indication this therapeutic approach. For reason, an...
Feasibility of RF ablation using a simplified two‐catheter technique from femoral approach was studied in 97 consecutive patients with manifest or concealed accessory pathway located at the anteroseptal, mid‐septal, and para‐Hisian areas. BF applied site shortest V‐delta interval earliest retrograde atrial activation during orthodromic tachycardia right ventricular pacing. Ablation initially successful 88 of’97 (91 %). Success rate 94% (16/17) for anteroseptal. (39/43] para‐Hisian, 89%...
The presence of autonomic dysfunction in nonalcoholic cirrhosis and its influence on intestinal transit disease outcome still need clarification.To investigate the function nervous system patients with possible associations among dysfunction, severity liver disease, disturbed transit, development complications during follow-up.Measurements heart rate variability obtained by analysis 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiographic recordings to assess lactulose breath hydrogen test determine orocecal...
This study aimed to evaluate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in endochondral development-related genes and mandibular condyle shape, size, volume, symmetry traits. Cone-beam Computed Tomographies genomic DNA from 118 individuals were evaluated (age range: 15-66 years). Data twelve 3D landmarks on condyles submitted morphometric analyses including Procrustes fit, principal component analysis, estimation of centroid sizes fluctuating asymmetry scores. Condylar...
To analyze the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of dabigatran compared with warfarin in patients nonvalvular atrial fibrillation moderate to high risk ischemic stroke or systemic embolism eligible for treatment anticoagulants.Markov-based economic analysis was performed estimate costs outcomes. Epidemiological efficacy data were determined after a critical revision medical literature. Unit taken from Brazilian official databases. Only direct covered. Costs benefits discounted at rate 5%...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a widely accepted risk for causing stroke. However, recent studies show AF as factor dementia, even without The mechanisms by which dementia develops in stroke-free patients with are still poorly understood and the association of abnormal function brain networks activities, such default mode network (DMN), has not been previously studied. We aimed to determine whether, absence stroke have resting-state compared controls AF.Twenty-one 21 age- sex-matched underwent...
Abstract Background Our main objective was to present a multidisciplinary review on the epidemiology of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and tools that could be used identify malignant ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) perform risk stratification. In addition, indications contraindications for use implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) in general special populations including elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are also given. Methods An expert group from Inter American Society...
