The objective of this study was to investigate the effects thrombolytic therapy on patterns VSR following MI.30 consecutive patients admitted single tertiary level cardiac hospital with diagnosis acute MI and developed in were included. effect formation its clinical outcome studied.Out 30 patients, 15 received therapy.10 early (<12h) 5 late (>12h). median time post significantly shorter...
Viper venom toxicities comprise mainly bleeding disorders and nephrotoxicity. Cardiotoxicity is a rare manifestation of viper bite. We describe the case previously healthy 35-year-old man who developed coagulopathy sinus node dysfunction following Electrocardiography showed arrest junctional escape rhythm. This first account caused by
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a known independent predictor of mortality following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In addition, patients with DM may have other risk factors for AMI such as hypertension (HTN), tobacco use, physical inactivity. This study aimed to explore the distribution cardiovascular (CV) among and without DM. Yoga-CaRe, multicenter randomized controlled trial, included (first or consequent AMI) (n=856) (n=2330), aged 18-80 years from 24 cardiac centers across India. The...
Left atrial (LA) myxoma presenting with symptoms of mitral stenosis in elderly males is very rare accounting for 10% the cases. We report an 80-year-old male who presented orthopnea and palpitations was subsequently found to have a large LA obstructing valve causing pulmonary hypertension (PHT).
Abstract Isolated cardiac involvement in hydatid disease is very rare. We report the case of a young adult male who presented to emergency department with acute onset chest pain and was surprisingly detected have cyst left ventricular myocardium. The transthoracic echocardiography magnetic resonance imaging confirmed diagnosis. Cardiac should be considered differential diagnosis individuals absence conventional risk factors atherosclerosis.
