Abstract 137: Sox6 Regulates Renin Expression During Juxtaglomerular Cell Expansion Session Title: Renin Angiotensin System II
Introduction: Hypertension, a common condition that affects 33% of the US population, is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke. Treatments for hypertension are limited and there is a critical need to develop new therapies. The Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) plays a key role in regulating blood pressure, and renin controls its rate-limiting step. In adults, renin is produced and stored by renal Juxtaglomerular (JG) cells. During sodium restriction and other pathophysiological stresses that require an increase in renin expression and release, the adult kidney increases the number of cells expressing r...

Outpatient Carpertide Infusion Therapy for a Patient With Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke-Like Syndrome (MELAS)
A case was a 46 year-old woman. She had short stature, juvenile diabetes, hearing loss, LV hypertrophy and diagnosed as MELAS at age of 39 year-old. Echocardiography showed LVDd of 51  mm; LVDs of 39 mm; IVST of 14 mm; LVPWT of 14 mm; EF of 31%. Despites oral administration of furosemide 40 mg, tolvaptan 3.75 mg, eplerenone 25 mg, perindopril 2 mg, carvedilol 3.75 mg, pimobendan 2.5 mg, she repeated hospitalization for heart failure 5–6 times a year. Since c arperitide was very useful as inpatient treatment, we tried intermittent carperitide infusion therapy (starting with 0.033γ and increasing to 0....

A clinical decision instrument to predict 30-day death & amp; cardiovascular hospitalizations following an emergency department visit for atrial fibrillation: The atrial fibrillation in the emergency room, part 2 (AFTER2) study
Conclusions Using a population-based sample, we derived and validated a tool that predicts the risk of early death and re-hospitalization for a cardiovascular reason in emergency department AF patients. The tool can offer information to managing physicians about the risk of death and re-hospitalization AF patients seen in the in emergency department, as well as identify patient groups for future targeted interventions aimed at preventing these outcomes.

Episodic Migraine With and Without Aura: Key Differences and Implications for Pathophysiology, Management, and Assessing Risks
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo review the pathophysiologic, epidemiologic, and clinical evidence for similarities and differences between migraine with and without aura.Recent FindingsThe ICHD-3 has recently refined the diagnostic criteria for aura to include positive symptomatology, which better differentiates aura from TIA. Although substantial evidence supports cortical spreading depression as the cause of visual aura, the role (if any) of CSD in headache pain is not well understood. Recent imaging evidence suggests a possible hypothalamic origin for a headache attack, but further research is needed. Migraine with aura is ...

Different diuretic properties between tolvaptan and furosemide in congestive heart failure patients with diuretic resistance and renal impairment: a subanalysis of the K-STAR
In conclusion, baseline urine osmolality and change in free-water clearance with additive introduction of TLV and a changing ratio of BUN/Cr with increasing doses of FUR were identified as key clinical parameters related to diuretic response .Trial registration UMIN000009201.

Mitochondrial A3243G mutation causes mitochondrial encephalomyopathy in a Chinese patient: Case report
Rationale: Mitochondrial mutations are associated with a wide spectrum of clinical abnormalities. More than half of these mutations are distributed in the 22 mitochondrial tRNA genes, including tRNALeu(UUR). In particular, the A3243G mutation in the tRNALeu(UUR) gene causes mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. Patient concerns: A 12-year-old boy was admitted to Shaoxing People's Hospital because there is a reduction in the volume of speech, dysphonia, unable to write, recognize words, and unable to wear clothes, accompanied by unstable walking after treatment of unexplained fever and somnolence. Diagnoses: The proband ...

Pre ‐hospital management protocols and perceived difficulty in diagnosing acute heart failure
ConclusionsThe prevalence of AHF protocols is rather high but the contents seem to vary. Difficulty of diagnosing suspected AHF seems to be moderate compared with other pre ‐hospital conditions.

Randhawa, M.D.A 96-year-old African American female (AAF) was admitted from a nursing home with complaints of abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting (N/V), dizziness, confusion and double vision for 5 days. She was discharged from the hospital just 4 days ago. Digoxin was started during that previous hospitalization for control of tachycardia in atrial fibrillation. One day prior to discharge, digoxin level was 1.8 mg/mL and digoxin dose was decreased to 125 mcg PO Q 48 hr.Past medical history (PMH)Hypertension, atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, stroke, congestive heart failure.M...
