coronary thrombosis/hypoxia

We report a documented observation of coronary thrombosis occurring in a 25-year-old patient with no risk factor, presenting a hereditary thrombophilia (facteur V Leiden) diagnosed a few months earlier in a context of venous thrombosis. This patient had a spread out anterior myocardial infarction

One hundred twenty-one patients who died from myocardial infarction were studied. Occlusive coronary artery thrombosis was present in 32%. In 68% of these, the infarct developed first. Factors inducing thrombus formation include fall in systemic blood pressure, alteration of blood flow, shock, and

Rabbit hearts were perfused at a pressure of 60 cm H2O with 37 degrees C Tyrode solution aerated with 5% CO2 in O2. The effluent from the heart was collected in four consecutive 10-min periods. The samples were analyzed for prostaglandins of the E series (PGE), using thin layer chromatography for

An animal model of coronary artery spasm-coronary thrombosis-acute myocardial infarction (CAS-CATH-AMI) was obtained by injecting ergonovine(0.22 mg/kg) directly into the left coronary artery (LCA) of 17 dogs under general anesthesia. Various parameters of the experimental group were compared with

Leukocyte-derived elastase is released following coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion and may contribute to reperfusion-related myocardial injury. Leukocyte infiltration into the reperfused myocardium may also contribute to ischemic injury following reflow. In the present study, we examined the

Three cases (one, newborn infant and two infants--one of them recently published--) who present electrocardiographic and enzymatic alterations comparative with diagnosis of ischemia and myocardial infarction are reported. Rarity of this entity in infants is stressed as most of published cases are

The causes of myocardial infarction (MI) are complex and multiple and may eventually be associated. Two main types of mechanism are thought to be implicated: Functional mechanisms: these are operative in prolonged angina: the difference between MI and angina pectoris is related to the duration of

We have previously shown that atherosclerotic apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE(-/-)) x LDL receptor-deficient (LDLR(-/-)) mice develop myocardial infarction when exposed to hypoxic stress. This study was performed to assess the role of thrombin and thrombosis in this process. ApoE(-/-) x LDLR(-/-)

UNASSIGNED Administer chest compressions (minimum 100/min, minimum 5 cm depth) at a ratio of 30:2 with ventilation (tidal volume 500-600 ml, inspiration time 1 s, F(I)O₂ if possible 1.0). Avoid any interruptions in chest compressions. After every single defibrillation attempt (initially biphasic

Artificial intelligence (AI) has penetrated the field of medicine, particularly the field of radiology. Since its emergence, the highly virulent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has infected over 10 million people, leading to over 500,000 deaths as of July 1st, 2020. Since the outbreak began,
