Systematic Search for Present and Potential Portals of Entry for Infective Endocarditis
ConclusionsOur search for the POEs of present IEs was often successful, as was searching for an oral or dental or a gastrointestinal POE of a new IE episode. We advise the systematic performance of stomatologic examinations in patients with IE and performance of colonoscopy in patients ≥50 years of age or at high risk for colorectal cancer.

Google Search Activity and Heart Failure: Analysis of the US Population's Interest in Heart Failure and its Correlation with Heart Failure-Associated Mortality
While evidence-based management of heart failure (HF) has led to improved survival, it has also increased the overall symptom burden. Online health information is popular with many patients, who use search engines in their pursuit of information. Google Trends (GT) is a publicly available online tool for analyzing Google search data. GT has been used to examine the impact of infectious diseases and mental health, but not for cardiovascular disorders [1]. We hypothesized that internet search activity related to HF would mirror its prevalence in the United States and correlate positively with HF associated mortality.

The Dogged Search for Cryptic Effects of Ticagrelor: Wishful Thinking or Real Benefits Beyond P2Y12 Inhibition?
Abstract
Greater protection against ischemic event occurrences has been associated with lower levels of platelet reactivity to adenosine diphosphate in patients with high risk coronary artery disease (1-3). The latter observations serve as the basis of the "platelet hypothesis"- i.e. greater inhibition of P2Y12 =less thrombotic event occurrence (4). Ticagrelor, a cyclo-pentyl-triazolo-pyrimidine, is indisputably a more potent P2Y12 inhibitor than clopidogrel (5) and when administered to patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in the PLATelet inhibition and patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial resulted in a reduction...

Factors and barriers associated with physical inactivity among youth in Saudi Arabia
ConclusionPrevalence of physical activity among adolescents in ksa is low and, the sedentary lifestyle is prevalent among this young group the majority of Saudi population are children and adolescent. And they represent more than half of the population in ksa. So, our top priority is prevention of diseases related to inactivity and interfere at young age.

In Search of Homo Deus
If you search “artificial intelligence” in PubMed today (16 October 2020), you end up with 110,855 results! It is more than obvious that advanced computing is entering our lives – perhaps not yet as much as Yuval Noah Harari has predicted in his book Homo Deus, but definitely to an extent that our medical p ractice is substantially affected, as van de Leur and colleagues discuss in this issue of the journal.

Using a System Pharmacology Method to Search for the Potential Targets and Pathways of Yinqiaosan against COVID-19
J Healthc Eng. 2022 Mar 15;2022:9248674. doi: 10.1155/2022/9248674. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTThe first reported case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) occurred in Wuhan, Hubei, China. Thereafter, it spread through China and worldwide in only a few months, reaching a pandemic level. It can cause severe respiratory illnesses such as pneumonia and lung failure. Since the onset of the disease, the rapid response and intervention of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have played a significant role in the effective control of the epidemic. Yinqiaosan (YQS) was used to treat COVID-19 pneumonia, with good curative effects. Ho...

Comparison of the Effect of Combination Therapy with an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker and Either a Low-Dose Diuretic or Calcium Channel Blocker on Cardiac Hypertrophy in Patients with Hypertension.
Abstract
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) regression is an important issue in hypertensive patients. Patients with LVH who had received the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) treatment for 8 weeks and had not reached the target blood pressure level were enrolled in the study. Patients were assigned to either losartan (50 mg)/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, 12.5 mg) group or ARB + CCB group (usual dose of ARB and calcium channel blocker, CCB). After 48 weeks, LV mass index was found to be reduced significantly in the losartan/HCTZ group but not in the ARB + CCB group. These results suggest that combination thera...

Preventing sudden cardiac death in athletes: in search of evidence-based, cost-effective screening.
Abstract
Sudden cardiac death in athletes is a recurrent phenomenon at sporting events and during training. Recent studies have associated sudden cardiac death with such cardiovascular conditions as coronary artery anomalies, cardiomyopathies, and electrocardiographic abnormalities, most of which are screenable with modern imaging techniques. We recently inaugurated the Center for Coronary Artery Anomalies at the Texas Heart Institute, which is dedicated to preventing sudden cardiac death in the young and investigating coronary artery anomalies. There, we are conducting 2 cross-sectional studies intended to firmly...

Cryoablation Versus RF Ablation for AVNRT: A Meta‐analysis and Systematic Review
ConclusionsCryoablation is a safe and effective treatment for AVNRT. Although late‐recurrence is more common with cryoablation than with RF ablation, avoidance of permanent AVN block makes it an attractive option in patients where the avoidance of AV block assumes higher priority (such as children and young adults).This article is protected by copyright.

Fibrinogen: A Circulating Factor in Search for Its Genetic Architecture.
Abstract
Fibrinogen (Coagulation factor I) is a major player in thrombus formation; it is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrin, which is the most abundant component of a blood clot(1). Beyond the role played in the coagulation and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), fibrinogen is a proinflammatory factor in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitides, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and kidney disorders and post-transplant-fibrosis)(2) as well as in several types of cancer(3). Fibrinogen has been demonstrated to interfere with the...

Fostering diffusion of scientific contents of National Society Cardiovascular Journals:the new ESC search engine.
Abstract
European Society of Cardiology (ESC) National Society Cardiovascular Journals (NSCJs) are high-quality biomedical journals focused on cardiovascular diseases. The Editors' Network of the ESC devises editorial initiatives aimed at improving the scientific quality and diffusion of NSCJ. In this article we will discuss on the importance of the Internet, electronic editions and open access strategies on scientific publishing. Finally, we will propose a new editorial initiative based on a novel electronic tool on the ESC web-page that may further help to increase the dissemination of contents and visibility of...

Heart Research Advances Using Database Search Engines, Human Protein Atlas and the Sydney Heart Bank
This Methodological Review is intended as a guide for research students who may have just discovered a human “novel” cardiac protein, but it may also help hard-pressed reviewers of journal submissions on a “novel” protein reported in an animal model of human heart failure. Whether you are an expert or not, you may know little or nothing about this particular protein of interest. In this review we provide a strategic guide on how to proceed. We ask: How do you discover what has been published (even in an abstract or research report) about this protein? Everyone knows how to undertake literature searches using PubMed...

Reduction of unnecessary right ventricular pacing by managed ventricular pacing and search AV+ algorithms in pacemaker patients: 12-month follow-up results of a randomized study
Conclusion
Over 12-month follow-up, the %VP was lower for MVP than SAV+ in patients with either SND or AVB. The sustainable %VP reduction has potential implications in reducing the development of heart failure and/or atrial arrhythmia morbidity.
