A 34-year-old male presented with retrosternal chest pain, fatigue, shortness of breath, and a history of a previous episode of myocarditis four years prior. He had elevated troponin T, normal skeletal muscle enzymes, and negative inflammatory markers. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
Dilated cardiomyopathy, perhaps chronic postviral fatigue syndrome as well as juvenile diabetes could be triggered by enteroviral infections. The frequency of sudden death after myocarditis and its relationship to enteroviral infections is disputed. Neonatal enteroviral disease is rare, but can be
Fulminant myocarditis is a fetal disease characterized by a distinct viral prodrome, sudden onset of severe hemodynamic compromise, and marked myocardial inflammation. One possible therapy to improve the poor prognosis of such patients may be the implantation of circulatory support systems that
We present a case report of 46-year-old man with no medical history, who complained of extreme fatigue, near-syncope, and palpitations. He initially presented in complete heart block. A transvenous pacemaker was placed in the emergency department, and he was started empirically on Ceftriaxone for
A 53-year-old woman developed general fatigue following an upper airway infection, which abruptly progressed to cardiogenic shock showing systolic blood pressure of 60 mmHg. An echocardiography revealed an ejection fraction of 0.11, diffuse severe hypokinesis and left ventricular thrombosis.
A 34-year-old woman presented to our service with chest pain, a troponin rise and dynamic ECG changes. Of note, she had complained of fatigue, feeling constitutionally unwell and a generalised rash in the days prior to her presentation. Her echocardiogram showed normal wall motion and preserved
Clozapine is an alternative antipsychotic medication used to control symptoms of schizophrenia and to reduce risks of suicidal behavior in patients who did not adequately respond to standard medication. Due to severe side effects including cardiomyopathy and myocarditis its clinical (1) Clozapine, a neuroleptic known to carry a risk of agranulocytosis, can also induce myocarditis and dilated myocardiopathy. (2) Patients taking clozapine who develop dyspnoea, fatigue, chest pain or collapse should be screened for myocarditis, especially during the first weeks of treatment.
OBJECTIVE
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become a valuable diagnostic tool for non-invasive diagnosis of acute myocarditis. However, since CMR studies are time- and cost-intensive and its diagnostic accuracy still not perfect, additional parameters are warranted to preselect and
We present a case of a 68-year-old man with a history of liver transplant and of chronic immunosuppression therapy who presented to the emergency department (ED) for fevers and worsening fatigue for two days. On further investigation, the patient was found to have a new first-degree heart block on
Lyme carditis is an uncommon manifestation of early disseminated Lyme disease. This case illustrates a 66-year-old male with complaints of fatigue, myalgias, and fever after a tick bite 3days earlier. A large erythema migrans was found on the chest wall. Initial electrocardiogram showed sinus rhythm
A case of 70-year-old cachectic female, nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs abuser, with progressive systemic sclerosis, who was admitted to our hospital due to joint pain and fatigue is presented. During hospitalisation the patient developed symptoms of acute myocarditis. Angiography of coronary
Acute myocarditis may result in severe hemodynamic compromise with fatal outcome. Furthermore, recent studies suggest myocarditis as a major cause of sudden unexpected death. A variety of cardiotropic viral, rickettsial, and bacterial infectious agents have been identified to date. Parvovirus B19
In rats with adrenaline-induced myocarditis conditionally therapeutic doses of strophanthin (2.7 mg/kg) and digoxin (0.89 mg/kg) were chosen according to performance of the test of swimming until the complete fatigue. The influence of drugs in these doses on enzymatic activity was evaluated by
OBJECTIVE
To observe the clinical effect of Xinyikang Oral Liquid (XYK) in treating viral myocarditis patients of Qi-Yin Deficiency and Evil-Toxin Encroaching Heart Type.
METHODS
Randomized controlled method was adopted, the 92 cases in the XYK group received XYK and 30 cases in the control group
