Middle Cerebral Artery Dissection: A Report of Two Cases With Treatments and Outcomes
Cureus. 2023 May 29;15(5):e39632. doi: 10.7759/cureus.39632. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTIn the present report, we describe two cases of right-sided M1 segment middle cerebral artery dissection in a 51-year-old Asian female and in a 28-year-old Caucasian male patient with no previous history of ischemic stroke or known intracranial atherosclerosis presenting with acute unilateral headache progressing to severe multifocal hemispheric infarction with nearly complete one-sided motor paralysis. In both patients, a middle cerebral artery dissection was detected on angiography; they were given exclusively medical therapy: patie...

Association of ACE gene polymorphisms with in-stent restenosis by stent type (biomime, supraflex, xience)
CONCLUSION: In the present study, there was no statistically significant relationship between ACE (I/D) gene polymorphism and the incidence of restenosis in patients who underwent repeat angiography. The results showed that the number of patients who received Clopidogrel in the ISR + group was significantly less than the ISR- group. This issue can indicate the inhibitory effect of Clopidogrel in the recurrence of stenosis.PMID:37328581 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-023-08554-7

Capsular warning syndrome and its clinical awareness and therapeutic approach: two case reports and a systematic review of the literature
ConclusionOur cases fit with the description of patients with partial recovery and risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, and smoking) in male patients. There is a lack of evidence regarding the best treatment option; dual antiplatelet therapy and anticoagulation therapy are strong contenders for a favorable result.

Lipoprotein associated- phospholipase A2 in STEMI vs. NSTE-ACS patients: a marker of cardiovascular atherosclerotic risk rather than thrombosis
CONCLUSION: The present study shows that among ACS patients, the levels of Lp-PlA2 are inversely associated with STEMI presentation and thrombotic coronary occlusion, being instead increased in NSTE-ACS patients, therefore potentially representing a marker of more aggressive chronic cardiovascular disease with an increased risk of recurrent cardiovascular events.PMID:37022507 | DOI:10.1007/s11239-023-02801-1

Recurrent Chest Pain Due to a Huge Left Main Aneurysm: A Case Report
J Tehran Heart Cent. 2022 Jan;17(1):33-37. doi: 10.18502/jthc.v17i1.9324.ABSTRACTCoronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are rare, and aneurysms of the left main coronary artery are extremely rare. Atherosclerosis is the main cause of CAAs. An 87-year-old man with atypical chest pain of 1 month's duration presented to a hospital. Physical examinations of the patient's cardiopulmonary system and vital signs were unremarkable. Electrocardiography showed a right bundle branch block and an atypical ST-segment elevation in the inferior leads. Coronary angiography demonstrated a huge aneurysm in the left main without any clots. Additio...

In-Hospital Bleeding and Mortality in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients Treated with Tirofiban and Potent P2Y12 Inhibitors
CONCLUSION: In our study, we found that the combined use of potent P2Y12 inhibitor with tiro- fiban in acute coronary syndrome patients treated interventionally was not different from the use of clopidogrel in terms of in-hospital bleeding and mortality.PMID:35860883 | DOI:10.5543/tkda.2022.21311
