Electrocardiogram alterations in non-traumatic brain injury: a systematic review
AbstractThe presence of abnormal electrocardiograms in individuals without known organic heart disease is one of the most common manifestations of cardiac dysfunction occurring during acute non traumatic brain injury. The primary goal of the present review is to provide an overview of the available data and literature regarding the presence of new-onset electrocardiographic (ECG) alterations in acute non traumatic brain injury. The secondary aim is to identify the incidence of ECG alterations and consider the prognostic significance of new-onset ECG changes in this setting. To do so, English language articles from January ...

Investigation of the arcane inhibition of human organic anion transporter 3 by benzofuran antiarrhythmic agents
Drug Metab Pharmacokinet. 2021 Mar 20;38:100390. doi: 10.1016/j.dmpk.2021.100390. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe combination of antiarrhythmic agents, amiodarone or dronedarone, with the anticoagulant rivaroxaban is used clinically in the management of atrial fibrillation for rhythm control and secondary stroke prevention respectively. Renal drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between amiodarone or dronedarone and rivaroxaban were previously ascribed to inhibition of rivaroxaban secretion by P-glycoprotein at the apical membrane of renal proximal tubular epithelial cells. Benzbromarone, a known inhibitor of organic anion tran...

State of the art regarding anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapy in dental procedures.
Authors: Lazăr AC, Ilea A, Moldovan B, Ionel A, Pop AS, Păcurar M, Câmpian RS Abstract Patients with anticoagulant therapy have a high thromboembolic risk. Due to the rich oro-maxillofacial vasculature and the fact that some dental procedures may cause a bleeding, the physician should be able to correlate this risk with the hemorrhagic risk. Dental procedures are a trigger for psychic stress. One of the most important changes in acute stress is in cardiovascular system. In healthy patients, these changes are reversible and have no significant consequences, but in patients with cardiovascular diseases, the respon...

Acute Myocardial Infarction in Severe Mental Illness: Prevalence, Clinical Outcomes, and Process of Care in U.S. Hospitalizations
ConclusionSchizophrenia and ONOP are the only SMI subtypes associated with adverse clinical outcomes after AMI. However, all patients with SMI were less likely to receive invasive management for AMI, with female gender and schizophrenia diagnosis being the strongest predictors of conservative management. A multidisciplinary approach between psychiatrists and cardiologists could improve the outcomes of this high-risk population.RésuméContexteLe trouble mental grave (TMG) est associé à une augmentation de la mortalité cardiovasculaire. Nous avons étudié la prévalence des patients atteints d’un TMG qui avaient subi ...

Acute Myocardial Infarction in Severe Mental Health Illness: prevalence, clinical outcomes and process of care in United States hospitalizations.
ConclusionSchizophrenia and ‘other non-organic psychoses’ are the only SMI subtypes associated with adverse clinical outcomes after AMI. However, all patients with SMI were less likely to receive invasive management for AMI, with women and schizophrenia diagnosis being the strongest predictors of conservative management. A multidisciplinary approach between psychiatrists and cardiologists could improve outcomes of this high-risk population.
