The goal of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and type psychiatric disorders coexisting with burning mouth syndrome (BMS), compare clinical features patients BMS alone multiple diagnoses, investigate number severity life events that occur before onset BMS.There were 102 BMS, no possible local or systemic causes, who evaluated according diagnostic criteria DSM-IV. All axis I diagnoses for which met at intake lifetime determined. Life a period 6 months BMS. A statistical comparison...
Background— Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a robust tool to evaluate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), myocardial salvage index, microvascular obstruction, and hemorrhage in patients with ST-segment–elevation infarction. We evaluated the additional prognostic benefit of CMR score over standard stratification global registry acute coronary events (GRACE) transthoracic echocardiography LVEF measurement. Methods Results— Two hundred nine consecutive infarction (age, 61.4±11.4...
Abstract Aims Psychosis spectrum disorder has a complex pathoetiology characterised by interacting environmental and genetic vulnerabilities. The present study aims to investigate the role of gene–environment interaction using aggregate scores (polygenic risk score for schizophrenia (PRS-SCZ)) environment liability (exposome (ES-SCZ)) across psychosis continuum. Methods sample consisted 1699 patients, 1753 unaffected siblings, 1542 healthy comparison participants. Structured Interview...
According to the current guidelines, patent foramen ovale (PFO) is still considered a qualitative factor and, as consequence, its closure recommended just on basis of 'presence'.In year 2008, we evaluated 25 patients (mean age 62.7) with acute cerebrovascular event and 92 27.3) suffering from migraine aura. No PFO was reported in 79 patients. A venous-to-arterial circulation shunt had been shown 38 (29 subjects 9 prior stroke). number microbubbles arrived during Valsava manoeuvre, found:...
Takotsubo cardiomyopaty is a recently described syndrome characterized by transient left ventricular dysfunction, mimicking an acute coronary and usually precipitated physical or emotional stress. We report the first case of cardiomyopathy after diarrhea in man. It may be argued that severe predisposed individuals cause stress resulting increased sympathetic activity leading to this syndrome. Probably relationship between adrenergic system heart more complex than general thought stimuli...
Abstract In 5 patients who suffered spontaneous angina during cardiac catheterization, aortic pressure and electrocardiographic lead (V ) were recorded at rest, the onset of anginal pain, 10 min after 0.6 mg sublingual nitroglycerin (NTG). Heart rate, systemic arterial pressure, systolic, diastolic time intervals measured. rate rose significantly immediately declined progressively within from NTG administration. Pre‐ejection period did not change angina, while left ventricular ejection...
Abstract Antibody-dependent phagocytosis (ADP) by monocytes and macrophages contributes significantly to the efficacy of many therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including anti-CD20 rituximab (RTX) targeting CD20 + B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). However, ADP is constrained various immune checkpoints, notably anti-phagocytic CD47 molecule, necessitating strategies overcome this resistance. The IgG2 isotype RTX induces CD20-mediated apoptosis in lymphoma cells, enhances Fc...
Antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) by monocytes and macrophages contributes significantly to the efficacy of many therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including anti-CD20 rituximab (RTX) targeting CD20 + B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). However, ADCP is constrained various immune checkpoints, notably anti-phagocytic CD47 molecule, necessitating strategies overcome this resistance. We have previously shown that IgG2 isotype RTX induces CD20-mediated apoptosis in lymphoma...
