Comorbid vision and cognitive impairments in older adults hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction

Only registered users can translate articles

Older patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) often have comorbidities. Our objective was to examine how outcomes differ by cognitive and vision status in older AMI patients. We use data from a prospective cohort study conducted at 94 hospitals in the United States between January

Cerebral Venous Thrombosis and Venous Infarction: Case Report of a Rare Initial Presentation of Smoker's Polycythemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

INTRODUCTION: Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare initial presentation of polycythemia. If diagnosed early, treatment can reduce mortality and morbidity significantly. Often it may present with headache as the only complaint, and thus the diagnosis is likely to be missed. CASE PRESENTATION: A

Cognitive and Physical Function by Statin Exposure in Elderly Individuals Following Acute Myocardial Infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

Despite beneficial effects on morbidity and mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), concerns remain about the safety of statin therapy, particularly their potential effects on cognitive and physical function, in elderly individuals. Among statin-naive AMI patients age ≥ 65 years in a

Cardiac troponin I is present in plasma of type 1 myocardial infarction patients and patients with troponin I elevations due to other etiologies as complex with little free I.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cardiac troponin (cTn) is a complex of three subunits (T, I, and C), with some studies reporting that ~5-10% is cytosolic and unbound ('free'). It has been hypothesized that free cTn is released before complex and before or without cell death dependent on the severity of ischemia. In

Motor tics of the head and neck: surgical approaches and their complications.

Only registered users can translate articles

Motor tics of the head and neck, especially hemifacial spasm and spastic torticollis, are the substance of this paper. Forty-six cases are presented, and surgical techniques are described. In hemifacial spasm the intracranial neurovascular lysis of Jannetta is a valid operation with the best results

[Virtual dystonia due to posterior ventrolateral thalamic infarct: case report].

Only registered users can translate articles

Behaviors, actions and movements may take place as purely mental events, as in the obsessions of obsessive-compulsive disorder, phantom limbs or sensory tics. In the present paper we report on the case of a 43-year-old diabetic hypertensive man who developed an incomplete form of the Dejerine-Roussy

Multislice first-pass cardiac perfusion MRI: validation in a model of myocardial infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

The purpose of this study was to validate a first-pass MRI method for imaging myocardial perfusion with multislice coverage and relatively small analyzable regions of interest (ROIs). A fast gradient-echo (FGRE) sequence with an echo-train (ET) readout was used to achieve multislice coverage, and a

[Contrast Echocardiography with a Quantitative Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion in Patients with Previous Q-Wave Myocardial Infarction].

Only registered users can translate articles

To assess possibilities of contrast echocardiography with quantitative evaluation of myocardial perfusion in patients with previous Q-wave myocardial infarction. We examined 15 men (42-72 years) with coronary artery disease and previous myocardial

Cognitive impairment and outcomes in older adult survivors of acute myocardial infarction: findings from the translational research investigating underlying disparities in acute myocardial infarction patients' health status registry.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment without dementia (CIND) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are prevalent in older adults; however, the association of CIND with outcomes after AMI is unknown. METHODS We used a multicenter registry to study 772 patients ≥65 years with AMI, enrolled between April

Contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with parametric imaging and time intensity curve analysis (TIC) for evaluation of the success of prostate arterial embolization (PAE) in cases of prostate hyperplasia

Only registered users can translate articles

Aim: To evaluate the use of dynamic contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with parametric color-coded imaging and time intensity curve analysis (TIC) for planning and follow-up after prostate arterial embolization (PAE).

Circulating immunoreactive cardiac troponin forms determined by gel filtration chromatography after acute myocardial infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cTnT measurements are used in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Together with troponin C (TnC), the cTnI and cTnT forms make up the ternary cTnT-cTnI-TnC (TIC) complex found within myocardium. Whether cTn occurs in the circulation after AMI

Neuroprotection by a central nervous system-type prostacyclin receptor ligand demonstrated in monkeys subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion: a positron emission tomography study.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Recently, we found that a novel subtype of prostacyclin (PGI(2)) receptor clearly distinct from the peripheral subtype in terms of ligand specificity is expressed in the central nervous system (CNS). (15R)-16-m-tolyl-17,18,19,20-tetranorisocarbacyclin (15R-TIC) was synthesized and

Depressed mood and quality of life after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment is widely considered the main cause of disability and handicap after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The impact of depression on recovery after SAH remains poorly defined. We sought to determine the frequency of post-SAH depression, identify risk factors for its

Effects of longitudinal changes in Charlson comorbidity on prognostic survival model performance among newly diagnosed patients with hypertension.

Only registered users can translate articles

To assess the use of updated comorbidity information over time on ability to predict mortality among adults with newly diagnosed hypertension. We studied adults 18 years and older with an incident diagnosis of hypertension from Alberta, Canada. We compared the prognostic performance of Cox

[Inflammatory response and C -reactive protein value in patient with acute coronary syndrome].

Only registered users can translate articles

Inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome as well as in the process of atherosclerosis in general. At the moment of myocardial ischaemia, local and systemic inflammatory reaction is amplified; in ischaemic myocardium there is increased expression of
