Effectiveness and safety of Injinoryung-San-Gagambang (Yinchen Wuling powder) decoction on stroke patients with elevated serum liver enzymes: Three case reports
We present 3 cases of hepatic dysfunction caused by polypharmacy, one of which was a 51-year-old man with cerebellum infarction and pneumonia as a complication of stroke. He took multiple medications because of baseline diseases. After recurrence of pneumonia, his laboratory tests showed abnormal aminotransferase levels. Another patient was an 81-year-old woman with cerebral infarction at the right-middle cerebral artery. She was also taking>5 medications. Her laboratory tests conducted on admission showed abnormally elevated aminotransferase levels. The last patient was 77-year-old man with cerebral infarction at the left...

Genetics of Cardiovascular Diseases. Lessons learned from a decade of genomics research in Iceland.
Authors: Arnar DO, Andersen K, Thorgeirsson G Abstract In the past ten years large scale genotyping has led to discoveries of sequence variants that confer risk of many common and complex diseases. Due to pioneering work done, in large part, at deCODE genetics in Reykjavik, discoveries from Iceland have contributed substantially to key advances in population genetics. In cardiovascular medicine a number of discoveries have been made, uncovering sequence variants that are associated with disorders such as coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, sick sinus syndrome, peripheral vascular disease, aortic aneurysm ...
