The following paper describes the case of the 59-year-old patient moved from Clinical Cardiology to the Centre of Clinical Toxicology because of severe ethylene glycol poisoning, which occurred in the course of myocardial infarction of inferior wall. Ethylene glycol concentration was 85 mg/dl, the
Some gel types have been reported to prevent left ventricular (LV) remodeling in myocardial infarction (MI) animal models. In this study, we tested biodegradable thermoresponsive gels. Poly(L-lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLLA-PEG) and poly(D-lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PDLA-PEG) were
Electrocardiographic changes due to ethylene glycol toxicity are described in a 37-year-old woman who presented with intentional overdose. She received prompt treatment with dialysis and fomepizole, which reversed profound metabolic acidosis. ST-elevation in leads I, aVL, and aVR were observed 87 h
A 69-year-old man presented to the emergency department after being found unconscious by his son. He had experienced headache the previous day but had been otherwise well. Investigations revealed a severe metabolic acidosis, raised lactate and acute kidney injury. The calculated anion and osmolar
Biodistribution and infarct accumulation of different liposome preparations in rabbits with experimental myocardial infarction have been investigated. The influence of such parameters as liposome size, and presence or absence of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and infarct-specific antimyosin antibody
The Insulin like growth factor-I isoform mechano-growth factor (MGF), is expressed in the heart following myocardial infarction and encodes a unique E-domain region. To examine E-domain function, we delivered a synthetic peptide corresponding to the unique E-domain region of the human MGF (IGF-1Ec)
The importance of heart rate for left ventricular remodeling and prognosis after myocardial infarction is not known. We examined the contribution of heart rate reduction by zatebradine, a direct sinus node inhibitor without negative inotropic effects on left ventricular function and dilatation, on
2-butoxyethanol (BE; ethylene glycol monobutyl ether) is used extensively in the manufacture of a wide range of domestic and industrial products which may result in human exposure and toxicity. BE causes severe hemolytic anemia in male and female rats and mice. In a recent report, female F344 rats
Experiments were conducted to characterize the antibody-independent activation of complement in human serum by isolated human heart mitochondrial membranes in vitro and to determine whether similar patterns of complement consumption occurred in patients after acute myocardial infarction. Direct
The CT and MR findings of a patient with acute ethylene glycol poisoning are presented. Basal ganglia hemorrhagic infarction especially involving the putamen was detected. The differential diagnosis includes other toxic and hypoxic encephalopathies.
A 58-year-old man presented to the emergency department with acute left-sided weakness and left visual field defect. His examination was significant for confusion, acetone odour, tachycardia and tachypnoea. Further blood tests revealed an anion gap of 31 mEq/L, serum osmolal gap of 34 mOsm/kg, and
A Site-specifically PEGylated exendin-4 (denoted as PEG-Ex4) is an exendin-4 (denoted as Ex4) analog we developed by site-specific PEGylation of exendin-4 with a high molecular weight trimeric poly(ethylene glycol) (tPEG). It has been shown to possess prolonged half-life in vivo with similar
In this study, an injectable, biodegradable hydrogel composite of oligo[poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate] (OPF) was investigated as a carrier of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) for the treatment of myocardial infarction (MI). The OPF hydrogels were used to encapsulate mESCs. The cell
Rationale: Researches on conductive engineering cardiac patch (ECP) for myocardial infarction (MI) treatment have achieved some progress in the animal while the availability of traditional conductive materials in ECP is still limited because of their controversial cytotoxicity. Here we aim to
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
