Lipid emulsion attenuates theophylline-induced cardiotoxicity in rat cardiomyoblasts.
Theophylline, a bronchodilator, induces cardiotoxicity due to its narrow therapeutic index. Lipid emulsion is used as a nonspecific antidote. However, its effects on theophylline-induced cardiotoxicit...
Association between the expression levels of miR-17-5p/IGFBP5 and exercise-induced physiological cardiac hypertrophy.
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy (PaCH) leads to heart failure, whereas exercise-induced physiological cardiac hypertrophy (PhCH) represents a benign adaptive response, and counteracts PaCH. Here, we ...
[Exploring the protective effect of camel whey protein on myocardial damage in mice with sepsis caused by different bacterial strains based on the PI3K/AKT/NF-ΚB signaling pathway].
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the protective effects and mechanisms of camel whey protein (CWP) against myocardial injury in mice with sepsis caused by Gram-positive bacteria or Gram-negative bacteria. ME...
Forgotten guidewire presenting as femoral vein extrusion: A rare complication of central venous access.
Central venous catheterisation (CVC) is a commonly performed procedure for critically ill patients in emergency departments (EDs). Here, we present the case of a rare complication of CVC involving a r...
Correlation between super-resolution ultrasound imaging features and microvascular invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma.
BACKGROUND: Microvascular invasion (MVI) is a critical histopathological determinant of poor prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Conventional imaging modalities remain limited in their abilit...
Combining partial splenic embolization with hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy in the management of chemotherapy-induced hypersplenism in patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases.
BACKGROUND: While partial splenic artery embolization (PSE) has been effectively employed in treating portal hypertension, cirrhosis, and idiopathic thrombocytopenia, its combination with hepatic arte...
CEUS features-based nomogram for predicting early recurrence (ER) of microvascular invasion-negative hepatocellular carcinoma.
PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and clinical features associated with early recurrence (ER) following surgical resection in patients with microvascular inv...
The role of transcranial doppler in localizing stroke lesion: A valuable tool in low resource setting.
The use of transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound in acute cerebrovascular events has not been widely adopted although it can help clinicians make informed decisions in the early evaluation of patients...
[Concepts of Cerebrospinal Fluid Management Based on a Paradigm Shift in CSF Dynamics:From the Third Circulation to the Glymphatic System and Meningeal Lymphatic Drainage].
Over the past century, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics have largely been interpreted through the "third circulation theory," which posits that CSF is produced by the choroid plexus that flows from ...
Understanding the severity and anatomical pattern of coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly whether lesions are focal or diffuse, is critical in determining the most effective treatment strategy ...
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) in preventing anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity in patients undergoing anthracycline-based chemotherapy....
Protein kinase C isoforms are crucial in hypertension-associated vascular dysfunction. Our previous study suggested that upregulated PKCβ2 contributed to aorta hypercontraction in spontaneously hypert...
Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide, posing a global health threat. In recent years, angiotensin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) have emerg...
Human arterial blood pressure follows a circadian rhythm, where pressure is highest during the day and lowest during the night. Patients with hypertension can have either a preserved rhythm or a dampe...

Incidence, Predictors, Management, and Clinical Impact of Major Bleeding Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: The Amulet IDE Randomized Clinical Trial.
Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is used in patients with contraindications to oral anticoagulation, who are at increased risk for major bleeding (MB). To evaluate the incidence, predictors, man...
