Zytokinproduktion bei Neugeborenen mit Transposition der großen Arterien im Verlaufe der Arteriellen Switch Operation : Beziehung zur Myokardzelldysfunktion
OBJECTIVE: Neonates undergoing cardiac surgery have a systemic inflammatory reaction with release of proinflammatory cytokines, which could be responsible for myocardial dysfunction as a result of myocardial cell damage. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the production of …

Does acute hypoxia and high altitude exposure adversely affect cardiovascular performance?
… hypotheses 1. HA adversely affects biventricular cardiac function leading to an increase in estimated filling pressures which is influenced by the mode of hypoxia. 2. HA exposure leads to myocardial injury that is linked to the development of AMS. 3. HA exposure is associated with a reduction in …

Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery: A prevalence study
… healthcare systems. Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) is a new entity that has recently been identified as an independent risk factor associated with 30-day all-cause mortality. The risk of death increases approximately 10 fold following MINS in the perioperative period. …

Artificial Intelligence (AI)-assisted Cardiotoxicity Management in Lung Cancer Radiotherapy
… cardiotoxicity is better indicated by cardiac substructure dose, compared with whole heart dose. Despite this, cardiac substructures are not routinely incorporated into clinical workflows due to the significant time and resource demands associated with manual segmentation. Moreover, the …

Modelling Brugada Syndrome using induced pluripotent stem cells
… hearts. The majority of mutations involve the cardiac sodium channel gene SCN5A and give rise to classical symptoms, which include an abnormal electrocardiogram with ST segment elevation and a predisposition to ventricular fibrillation. To date, the implantation of a cardioverter defibrillator …

Characterisation of cardiac protein changes post death: pilot study
… biochemical changes that occur postmortem in cardiac tissues through analysis of proteins. Moreover, to determine if there was degradation in cardiac proteins post death for bodies with known time since death. Additionally, to determine the usability of PM cardiac tissues as controls for …

Molecular recognition using nanotube-adsorbed polymer complexes
… detection of riboflavin in murine macrophages. Cardiac biomarkers troponin I and T are recognized as standard indicators for acute myocardial infarction (AMI, or heart attack), a condition that comprises 10% of U.S. emergency room visits [8]. There is significant interest in a rapid, …

Acute Myocardial Infarction: The Relationship between Duration of Ischaemia and Infarct Size in Humans - Assessment by MRI and SPECT
… myocardial infarction. Biochemical markers of cardiac injury are used to estimate myocardial infarct size. The agreement between cumulative as well as peak values of biochemical markers and DE-MRI in patients with an occluded coronary artery was studied for Paper II.We showed that in order to …
