It is widely, but mistakenly, believed that ischemic heart disease (IsHD) and its complications are the sole and direct result of reduced coronary blood flow by obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). However, cardiac angina, acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and sudden cardiac death (SCD) occur
Research during the last ten years into the pathophysiology of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has made it gradually clearer that this is a phasic event. A number of independent authors have made this conclusion quite obvious. The authors of this review suggest that the alternating sequence of
BACKGROUND
Carfilzomib (CFZ) is a new proteasome inhibitor used for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Besides heart failure, angina and myocardial ischemia occurred following administration of CFZ, which is not contraindicated in patients with recent myocardial infarction/unstable angina excluded
Smoking is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the developed world. The main cause of death related to smoking is myocardial infarction. Smoking not only accelerates the process of atherosclerosis but also predisposes to acute complications, early in atheromatous disease, and which
Lipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid have been implicated in myocardial injury induced by coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion, as dual inhibitors of the lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase enzymes, but not selective cyclooxygenase inhibitors, reduce infarct size. However, interpretation of
Although barbiturates are often effective as therapeutic agents in several types of brain ischemia, there is no consensus as to their mechanisms of action. Exactly why other intravenous anesthetics such as ketamine are not effective therapies in brain ischemia is not known. Structural analogs of
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the present study was to identify and characterize the cell-surface receptors on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) that transduce calcium transients elicited by cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs), potent spasmogenic and proinflammatory agents with profound
The authors analyzed the clinicoangiographic correlation of cerebral vasospasm in a series of 120 cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage due to aneurysmal rupture. They made such correlation in the pre and postoperative course, in the follow-up, and in relation with the pathological findings. All patients
BACKGROUND
Delayed cerebral vasospasm occurring after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is still responsible for a considerable percentage of the morbidity and mortality in patients with aneurysms. It has been suggested that the pathogenesis of delayed cerebral vasospasm is related to a number of
