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.
Coronary artery fistula (CAF), although one of the rare coronary anomalies, is becoming increasingly more detectable in recent years due to advancements cardiac diagnostic imaging. Its long-term prognostic implications and importance for cardiovascular system remain a dilemma cardiologists patients. Based on variety haemodynamic symptoms complications, must be aware characteristics CAF multi-slice CT evaluation, pre-procedural management follow-up. Both surgical percutaneous options are...
Introduction Afferent loop syndrome (ALS) is a recognised complication of foregut surgery caused by mechanical obstruction at the gastrojejunostomy anastomosis itself or point nearby. Acute ALS has only been reported following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) after several years due to recurrence malignancy anastomotic site. We report five cases acute in first postoperative week. Methods The presentation, clinical findings and successful management 5 patients with were obtained from...
The ethanolic extracts of a mangrove plant Ceriops tagal (Family Rhizophoraceae) and its sequential fractions thereof were studied for their effect on 3H-2-deoxyglucose uptake by L6 rat muscle cells cultured to the myotube stage. Among these, n-hexane soluble fraction extract leaves C. enhanced even at 2 microg mL(-1) concentration with half maximum activity 10 mL(-1), comparable insulin (1 microM) metformin (400 microM). This enhancement in glucose was found be independent contrast insulin,...
Central hypoventilation syndrome (CHS) is a rare condition characterized by during sleep, reduced ventilatory responsiveness to CO(2) and O(2), impaired perception of air hunger, autonomic abnormalities. Neural impairments accompany the condition, including structural injury, cerebral autoregulation, dysfunctional control. The may induce cortical hypoxic additional consequences maldevelopment from PHOX2B mutations present in most CHS subjects. We assessed injury clinically diagnosed using...
Background Conducting a study in rural pre-dominant areas will help to understand the penetration of vaccination campaign during COVID-19 health crisis. This aimed investigate coverage against among adult population India and identify factors associated with coverage. Methods A population-based cross-sectional was conducted one district north from January February 2023. semi-structured questionnaire designed on SurveyMonkey digital platform for interviewing participants, which consisted...
(1) Introduction: Adolescents with complex congenital heart disease (CCHD) show brain tissue injuries in regions associated cognitive deficits. Alteration cerebral arterial perfusion (CAP), as measured by transit time (ATT), may lead to deficits and potential injury. Our study aims compare ATT values between CCHD patients controls assess the associations values, MD scores adolescents CCHD. (2) Methods: 37 subjects, 14–18 years of age, who had undergone surgical palliation 30 healthy...
Two new glycosides, named Firmacosides A and B, together with known fatty esters, batyl alcohol, Delta(5,20) sterol sphingosine derivatives have been isolated from the soft coral Sinularia firma TIX-DUR. On basis of spectroscopic analysis ((1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR, (1)H-(1)H COSY, HMQC, HMBC FAB-MS), Firmacoside was established as hexadecanyl-1-O-alpha-D-arabinopyranosyloxy (1-->4)-alpha-D-arabinopyranosyloxy (1-->4)-alpha-D-arabinopyranoside (1), firmacoside B elucidated...
Objectives CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is a well-validated clinical tool in the evaluation of chest pain. In our institution, CTCA availability was increased January 2020, and subsequently, expanded further to replace all exercise testing during COVID-19 pandemic. Our objective assess impact utilisation on length stay patients presenting with pain prepandemic era Methods Study design retrospective. Patients referred for cardiology review between October 2019 May 2020 and/or dyspnoea were...
Introduction Despite advances in surgery and critical care, severe pancreatitis continues to be associated with a high rate of mortality, which is increased significantly the presence infected pancreatic necrosis. Controversy persists around optimal treatment for such cases, specialist units variously advocating open necrosectomy, simple percutaneous drainage or one several minimal access approaches. We describe our technique outcomes two-port laparoscopic retroperitoneal necrosectomy...
Our present study aims to assess the short and long-term postoperative outcome of microscopic interlaminar decompression from a neurosurgical center in developing country also further determine any predictors functional outcome.All patients with moderate severe symptomatic stenosis undergoing elective posterior lumbar spinal were prospectively enrolled database. Preoperative, 2 weeks years Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores determined for all patients. These retrospectively compared...
Total ischaemic time in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been shown to be a predictor of mortality. The aim this study was assess the total STEMIs an Irish primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) centre. A single-centre prospective observational conducted all referred for pPCI from October 2017 until January 2019. There were 213 patients with mean age 63.9 years (range 29-96 years). 387 ± 451.7 mins. before call help (patient delay) 207.02 396.8 mins, comprising...
Introduction: Hydroxychloroquine, with or without Azithromycin, was used as a treatment strategy for COVID-19 in March and April 2020. The use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), may increase the risk QT prolongation. This study performed to assess incidence degree prolongation hospitalised patients treated HCQ, association morbidity mortality. Methods Results: Single centre retrospective observational study. Baseline corrected interval (QTc), peak QTc change (∆QTc) were calculated all patients....
A BSTRACT Fetus in fetu is a rare congenital anomaly which malformed parasitic twin found within the body of living child or adult. In this case report, 1-day-old presented with large firm abdominal mass on left side upper abdomen. Imaging studies misdiagnosed as an intraperitoneal benign dermoid cyst displacing bowel loops and internal viscera. surgical resection was performed 21 days life, pathology confirmed eight fetuses inside cyst.
