Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) has emerged as an early indicator of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) caused by transthyretin-associated (ATTR) mutations, possibly linked to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. This case series examines the relationship between idiopathic CTS and CA imaging diagnosis. Methods: Twenty-two patients from cross-sectional study CarPoS (NCT05409833) were included. These underwent physical evaluation, laboratory exams, electrocardiography, echocardiography, magnetic...
Left ventricular noncompaction is an unusual but increasingly recognized cardiomyopathy, the etiology of which still not definitely established. Clinical presentation includes a wide spectrum scenarios, including heart failure, thromboembolism and malignant arrhythmias, with half deaths occurring suddenly. Early detection LVNC therefore essential to prevent sudden cardiac death. To our knowledge, this first report presence sympathetic nervous dysfunction, assessed by...
Introduction: Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) is usually asymptomatic but may be associated with severe complications that require awareness. This study aimed to assess the clinical and pathological features of symptomatic MD in children as well accuracy [99mTc]sodium pertechnetate scintigraphy. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all pediatric patients treated between 2007 2018 at a tertiary center. Records included demographics, presentation, scintigraphy pertechnetate, surgical outcome,...

Abstract Background Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is an increasing area of interest in patients with epilepsy. The effects epilepsy on the autonomic control heart are not completely understood and that dysfunction has been implicated some cases Sudden Unexpected Death Epilepsy (SUDEP). Objective To study influence generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) HRV focal refractory Method We prospectively evaluated (January 2015 to July 2018) 121 admitted our institution's Monitoring Unit.
