OBJETIVO: Cuantificar el miocardio salvado mediante resonancia magnética cardiaca, en miocardio irrigado por la arteria relacionada con el infarto en pacientes con IAM con SDST reperfundidos y no reperfundidos. PACIENTES Y MÉTODOS: A 25 pacientes con un primer infarto de miocardio con elevación del ST...
Abstract Acute cardiac injury is associated with higher mortality in patients with the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and the exact etiology can be challenging to diagnose in the emergency setting during the pandemic. From a pathophysiological perspective, SARS-CoV-2 infection is characterized...
A síndrome de Takotsubo é uma cardiomiopatia induzida por
estresse, caracterizada por disfunção transitória do ventrículo
esquerdo. Essa disfunção pode ser confundida com infarto agudo
miocárdio na sala de emergência por ter características clínicas semelhantes – principalmente a dor tor...
A pericardite é um processo inflamatório do pericárdio de múltiplas
causas, sendo a infecção viral a mais comum. O infarto agudo
do miocárdio é um dos principais diagnósticos diferenciais.
O objetivo deste artigo foi relatar um caso de pericardite aguda
com supradesnivelamento de segmento ST. Os...
ABSTRACT Background: Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a risk factor for cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Aim: To evaluate the association between high MPV and 90-day mortality after an episode of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Material and Methods: Retrospective cohort of 594 patients with a medi...
Summary Objective: To investigate the changes in serum cardiac myosin light chain 1 (CMLC-1) levels in children with fulminant myocarditis (FM) during continuous blood purification (CBP), as well as to analyze its correlation with other laboratory indexes. Method: Twenty-four (24) children with FM who ...
Abstract Background: Currently, there is no validated multivariate model to predict probability of obstructive coronary disease in patients with acute chest pain. Objective: To develop and validate a multivariate model to predict coronary artery disease (CAD) based on variables assessed at admission to...
Phosphorylated-cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein (Phospho-CREB) has an important role in the pathogenesis of myocardial ischemia. We isolated the iridoid glycoside cornin from the fruit of Verbena officinalis L, investigated its effects against myocardial ischemia and reperf...
