Invasive versus Conservative Management in Coronary Artery Disease
Conclusion: Optimal medical therapy should be initially utilized in all patients. Early invasive management and revascularization should be utilized in patients with left ventricular dysfunction, congestive heart failure, and failure of medical therapy. A shared decision-making process should always be utilized.PMID:37407216 | PMC:PMC10321727 | DOI:10.3121/cmr.2023.1806

Diagnostic Accuracy and Radiation Dose of CT Coronary Angiography in Atrial Fibrillation: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Evidence-based Practice
Conclusion: CT angiography has high diagnostic accuracy in patients with atrial fibrillation but is associated with significantly higher effective radiation dose than that in patients with sinus rhythm. The older age of patients with atrial fibrillation, however, may make the risk of developing cancer less of a concern. © RSNA, 2013

Omega-3 fatty acids for intermittent claudication.
CONCLUSIONS: Omega-3 fatty acids appear to have little haematological benefit in people with intermittent claudication and there is no evidence of consistently improved clinical outcomes (quality of life, walking distance, ankle brachial pressure index or angiographic findings). Supplementation may also cause adverse effects such as nausea, diarrhoea and flatulence. Further research is needed to evaluate fully short- and long-term effects of omega-3 fatty acids on the most clinically relevant outcomes in people with intermittent claudication before they can be recommended for routine use.

Ultra-rapid reviews, first test results
In conclusion, this is early days and our first testing steps.  The results have been very encouraging and when our new system is out it'll be even better.  But much more testing is required!Oh yes, the time taken - if you're interested, then scroll down.With the exception of the second to last result they all took around 2-3 minutes.  The second to last one took approximately 5 minutes (as I had to scroll through around 55 results to select the 17 that we used).

This was submitted by a fantastic medical student who wished to remain anonymous: A 31 year old male with a history of viral pericarditis one year ago presented with right upper quadrant pain. Here is his initial ED ECG:The R-wave in V4 extends to 33 mm, the computerized QTc is 372 msThe only available previous ECG is from one year ago, during the admission when he was diagnosed with pericarditis:1 year ago ECG, with clinician and computer interpretatioin of pericarditis What do you think?

Abdominally based free flap planning in breast reconstruction with computed tomographic angiography: systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: The use of preoperative computed tomographic angiography reduces the operative time, postoperative flap-related complications, and donor-site morbidity compared with Doppler ultrasonography. Preoperative computed tomographic angiography has the potential to reduce operative cost and increase efficiency in the operating room. Thus, preoperative mapping by computed tomographic angiography should be strongly considered for abdominally based free flap breast reconstruction. PMID: 24572842 [PubMed - in process]

Computed tomography (CT) angiography for confirmation of the clinical diagnosis of brain death.
CONCLUSIONS: The available evidence cannot support the use of CT angiography as a mandatory test, or as a complete replacement for neurological testing, in the management pathway of patients who are suspected to be clinically brain dead. CT angiography may be useful as a confirmatory or add-on test following a clinical diagnosis of death, assuming that clinicians are aware of the relatively low overall sensitivity. Consensus on a standard radiological interpretation protocol for future published studies would facilitate further meta-analysis. PMID: 24683063 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Intracerebral Hemorrhage Associated With Dietary Supplement Containing DMAA (P5.134)
CONCLUSIONS: DMAA may increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events, particularly when combined with strenuous physical activity, alcohol, caffeine, or activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Clinicians should be aware of the potential adverse effects of DMAA-containing substances.Study Supported by:no conflicts of interestDisclosure: Dr. Elgallab has nothing to disclose.

Anticoagulant treatment for subsegmental pulmonary embolism.
CONCLUSIONS: There is no randomised controlled trial evidence for the effectiveness and safety of anticoagulation therapy versus no intervention in patients with isolated subsegmental pulmonary embolism (SSPE) or incidental SSPE, and therefore we can not draw any conclusions. Well-conducted research is required before informed practice decisions can be made. PMID: 24771493 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
