A neonate with aseptic cutaneous necrosis related to the migration of the proximal central venous catheter infusion port
We report a case of aseptic cutaneous necrosis from extravasation of calcium chloride at the proximal port of a central venous catheter (CVC). A right internal jugular CVC was placed with ultrasound guidance using contemporary guidelines for size and insertion site. Catheter migration occurred concurrent with development of postoperative anasarca. Four days later, leakage of infusate with skin necrosis was noted at the insertion site. Despite initial proper positioning, catheter ports can migrate out of intravascular structures due to postprocedural subcutaneous edema. Intravascular confirmation should be performed regular...

A 50-something with Regular Wide Complex Tachycardia: What to do if electrical cardioversion does not work?
Case submitted by anonymous. Written by Smith.  Ken ' s piece at the bottom is excellent.A 50-something presented with sudden onset palpitations 8 hrs prior while sitting at desk at work. He had concurrent sharp substernal chest pain that resolved, but palpitations continued.Over past 3 months, he has had similar intermittent episodes of sharp chest pain while running, but none at rest. Past medical history includes coronary stenting 17 years prior. A brief chart review revealed his most recent echo in 2018, with LV EF 67%, “very small” inferior wall motion abnormality.Initial ED ECG:What do you think?This wa...

Association between carotid and coronary atherosclerotic plaque morphology: a virtual histology intravascular ultrasound study
CONCLUSION: The percentage of all analyzed plaque components was moderately correlated between coronary and carotid artery plaques. Nevertheless, the proportion of NC plaque tissue was greater in the coronary arteries, while the carotid arteries showed more %FF atherosclerotic lesions. CAS group patients with a history of cerebrovascular events had a tendency of greater proportion of necrotic tissue in analyzed carotid plaques compared to others in the CAS group.RELEVANCE FOR PATIENTS: In this study, we found that patients with a history of cerebrovascular event had a tendency of increased NC content in culprit lesion of c...

Coronary and Carotid Imaging of Atherosclerosis and Contributing Factors in Middle-aged People with Long-term Cervical and Upper Thoracic Spinal Cord Injuries
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first comprehensive assessment of atherosclerosis in people with SCI using advanced imaging techniques. The atherosclerotic burden in middle-aged people with long-term cervical and upper thoracic SCI was not increased, whereas SCORE was lower due to lower cholesterol levels. Imaging techniques may be valuable tools for assessment of atherosclerosis in SCI. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.PMID:37492978 | DOI:10.1002/pmrj.13043

Activation of N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptor contributed to the ultrasonic modulation of neurons in vitro
In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that NMDA receptors contribute to neuronal activation by ultrasound stimulation in vitro, providing insight into the molecular mechanisms of ultrasound neuromodulation and a new mediator for the sonogenetics technique.PMID:37481942 | DOI:10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.07.034

Nonsurgical hypoparathyroidism is associated with skeletal muscle dysfunction and restrictive lung disease
CONCLUSION: Detailed testing of patients with HP without overt muscle and lung diseases revealed significant impairment in parameters of skeletal muscle function. Myopathy and RLD were observed in a considerable proportion of patients with HP.PMID:37477385 | DOI:10.1093/ejendo/lvad091
