Sudden cardiac death among children and young adults is a devastating event. We performed prospective, population-based, clinical genetic study of sudden adults.
The incidence and age distribution of primary cardiomyopathy in children are not well defined. We undertook a population-based, retrospective cohort study Australia to document the epidemiology childhood cardiomyopathy.
Gut microflora-mucosal interactions may be involved in the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).To investigate efficacy a novel prebiotic trans-galactooligosaccharide changing colonic microflora and improve symptoms IBS sufferers.In all, 44 patients with Rome II positive completed 12-week single centre parallel crossover controlled clinical trial. Patients were randomized to receive either 3.5 g/d prebiotic, 7 or placebo. monitored weekly scored according 7-point Likert scale....

Background— Despite considerable mortality, population-based prognostic factors for childhood dilated cardiomyopathy are lacking. Methods and Results— A cohort study was undertaken of all children in Australia who presented with at age 0 to 10 years between January 1, 1987, December 31, 1996. single cardiologist analyzed cardiac investigations, a pathologist histopathological material. There were 184 subjects cardiomyopathy. Positive viral identification or lymphocytic myocarditis found 30...
Background— Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a genetic disorder causing life-threatening arrhythmias whenever sympathetic activity increases. β-Βlockers are the mainstay of therapy; when they fail, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) used but often cause multiple shocks. Preliminary results with flecainide appear encouraging. We proposed left cardiac denervation (LCSD) as useful additional therapy, evidence remains anecdotal. Methods and Results—...

The effect of osteopathic manual therapy (i.e., spinal manipulation) in patients with chronic and subchronic back pain is largely unknown, its use such controversial. Nevertheless, a frequently used method treatment this group patients.
Background— Population-based studies have provided insight into the natural history of adult hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, but comparable information for affected children is lacking. Methods and Results— All Australian who presented with primary cardiomyopathy at 0 to 10 years age between January 1, 1987, December 31, 1996, were enrolled in a longitudinal cohort study. A single cardiologist reviewed serial cardiac investigations on each subject. total 80 subjects identified. An underlying...
Background— Existing studies of childhood dilated cardiomyopathy deal mainly with early survival. This population-based study examines long-term outcomes for children cardiomyopathy. Methods and Results— The diagnosis was based on clinical, echocardiographic, pathological findings. primary end point included time to the combined outcome death or cardiac transplantation. There were 175 patients 0 <10 years age at diagnosis. Survival free from transplantation 74% (95% confidence interval,...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Communication and coordination with primary care physicians (PCPs) is recommended to ensure safe transitions for hospitalized older patients. Understanding patient experiences of problems after discharge can help clinical teams design more patient‐centered transitions. OBJECTIVE: To report patients' hospital investigate whether PCPs were aware their hospitalization. DESIGN: Prospective mixed methods study. SETTING: Single academic medical center. PATIENTS: Hospitalized...
Background: Late survival and symptomatic status of children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have not been well defined. We examined long-term outcomes for pediatric cardiomyopathy. Methods: The National Australian Childhood Cardiomyopathy Study is a longitudinal population-based cohort study (0–10 years age) diagnosed between 1987 1996. primary end point was time to death or cardiac transplantation. Results: There were 80 patients cardiomyopathy, median age at diagnosis 0.48 (interquartile...

<h3>Importance</h3> Patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) may experience life-threatening arrhythmic events (LTAEs) despite β-blocker treatment. Further complicating management, the role of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) in CPVT is debated. <h3>Objective</h3> To investigate long-term outcomes patients with<i>RYR2</i>CPVT treated β-blockers only and cost to benefit ratio ICD. <h3>Design, Settings, Participants</h3> This prospective cohort...
