The objective of this study was to evaluate effect of "dry" bi-carbonate baths (DBB) on the circadian profile of arterial pressure (AP) in patients who suffered acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Diurnal AP profiles were analysed in all patients after AMI. The patients comprising group 1 were
A case of severe lithium carbonate self-poisoning is described, presenting with a very high serum lithium level (14.6 mmol/L) on admission. Lengthy and repeated hemodialyses were required to lower lithemia to nontoxic ranges. As is usually reported, our patient had prolonged neurologic
Secondary mania is increasingly recognized clinically, and consists of acute exhibition of manic symptoms without past or family history of affective disorder. It has been reported with toxic and metabolic disturbances, primary and metastatic brain tumors, epilepsy, and cerebrovascular events. A
Introduction: Although patients commonly experience psychological disorders such as depression following cerebrovascular events, mania is extremely rare. Here we present a patient who experienced secondary mania while being hospitalized
Objectives: Although adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have shown promise in cardiac regeneration, stable engraftment is still challenging. Acellular bioengineered cardiac patches have shown promise in positively altering ventricular
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a serious complication in long-term hemodialysis patients. The authors report on 2 patients on long-term hemodialysis who suffered from persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism due to missed mediastinal parathyroid gland after total parathyroidectomy with forearm
Injectable biodegradable hybrid hydrogels were designed and developed based on thiolated collagen (Col-SH) and multiple acrylate containing oligo(acryloyl carbonate)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-oligo(acryloyl carbonate) (OAC-PEG-OAC) copolymers for functional cardiac regeneration. Hydrogels were
OBJECTIVE
TO compare the ECG changes in patients of acute mania receiving verapamil and lithium carbonate.
OBJECTIVE
Verapamil used in resistant manic patients not responding to any drug therapy, should be considered for its side effects on cardiovascular system. It causes bradycardia and myocardial
A 69-year-old female patient is reported who had been treated with lithium salts for bipolar affective disease. During hospital stay due to myocardial infarction in cardiology department signs of intoxication with lithium carbonate developed. Parkinsonian syndrome and amnesia with abnormal EEG
Verapamil is a calcium channel blocking agent with possible antimanic properties. In two elderly manic patients taking the medication in combination with lithium carbonate, profound bradycardia developed and was followed by a fatal myocardial infarction in one case. Clinical implications and
