Quadri-chamber cardiac thrombi in alcoholic cardiomyopathy: a rare though ominous finding
We report a case of alcoholic cardiomyopathy with an alarming finding of thrombi in all cardiac chambers. Echocardiographic evidence of quadri-chamber intracardiac thrombi has rarely been described in the literature. Case A 48-year-old man with history of chronic alcoholism presented with progressive breathlessness of 1 year's duration. Cardiovascular examination showed sinus tachycardia and evidence of congestive cardiac failure. A transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) showed dilated cardiac chambers, severe biventricular global dysfunction with an alarming finding of thrombi...

Diagnosis and management of Marchiafava-Bignami disease: a review of CT/MRI confirmed cases
Conclusions As thiamine deficiency is frequently associated with alcoholism, malnutrition and prolonged vomiting; we recommend prompt treatment of MBD with parenteral thiamine in such subjects. Recovery should be followed by repeated neuropsychological and MRI examinations, preferably using diffusion tensor imaging.

Genetic Implication of a Novel Thiamine Transporter in Human Hypertension
ConclusionsNovel strategies were coupled to position a new hypertension-susceptibility locus, uncovering a previously unsuspected thiamine transporter whose genetic variants predicted several disturbances in cardiac and autonomic function. The results have implications for the pathogenesis and treatment of systemic hypertension.

Got PMS? You Might Have High Blood Pressure In The Future, Says Study
By: Agata Blaszczak Boxe Published: 11/25/2015 10:14 AM EST on LiveScience The headaches, fatigue and other symptoms of premenstrual syndrome may be more than just a monthly aggravation — they may also signal greater future health problems for those women suffering from the syndrome: Women who have PMS may have an increased risk of developing high blood pressure in the future, according to a new study. Researchers found that the women who had PMS at the beginning of the study were 40 percent more likely to develop high blood pressure over the next 20 years, compared to women who experienced few menstrual symptom...

Alcoholic cardiomyopathy : The result of dosage and individual predisposition.
Authors: Maisch B Abstract The individual amount of alcohol consumed acutely or chronically decides on harm or benefit to a person's health. Available data suggest that one to two drinks in men and one drink in women will benefit the cardiovascular system over time, one drink being 17.6 ml 100 % alcohol. Moderate drinking can reduce the incidence and mortality of coronary artery disease, heart failure, diabetes, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. More than this amount can lead to alcoholic cardiomyopathy, which is defined as alcohol toxicity to the heart muscle itself by ethanol and its metabolites. Historical exa...

Brachytherapy of tongue carcinoma in a patient with difficult airway: anesthetic considerations.
We report a 74-year-old chronic smoker, chronic alcoholic with history of stroke, who had undergone brachytherapy for tongue carcinoma. Apart from a huge tongue tumor, he had an epiglottic mass but refused elective tracheostomy. This had led to a few critical states throughout the process of treatment, including a metabolic crisis due to thiamine deficiency and difficult airway crisis. To our best knowledge, there have been no reported case on a patient with vocal cord mass undergoing tongue brachytherapy. We hope sharing of this experience may aid the management of similar patients in future. PMID: 30662482 [PubMed]

Mitochondrial A3243G mutation causes mitochondrial encephalomyopathy in a Chinese patient: Case report
Rationale: Mitochondrial mutations are associated with a wide spectrum of clinical abnormalities. More than half of these mutations are distributed in the 22 mitochondrial tRNA genes, including tRNALeu(UUR). In particular, the A3243G mutation in the tRNALeu(UUR) gene causes mitochondrial encephalomyopathy. Patient concerns: A 12-year-old boy was admitted to Shaoxing People's Hospital because there is a reduction in the volume of speech, dysphonia, unable to write, recognize words, and unable to wear clothes, accompanied by unstable walking after treatment of unexplained fever and somnolence. Diagnoses: The proband ...

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Effects of Troxerutin and Cerebroprotein Hydrolysate Injection on Injured Spinal Cords in Rats.
In this study, the effects of administering TCH injections on neurological recovery in post-SCI rats were first tested with regard to the behavior and histology; subsequently, the specific expression profile of mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) in their spinal cords were conducted using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). The LncRNA-mRNA networks were also elucidated. After SCI, we found that TCH injection with the right dose is effective for the recovery of locomotion function and repairing of the damaged tissue in the spinal cord; TCH injection is also discovered to have a role in the regulation of 443 differentially express...

Central Ocular Motor Disorders: Clinical and Topographic Anatomical Diagnosis, Syndromes and Underlying Diseases
Klin Monbl Augenheilkd. 2021 Nov;238(11):1197-1211. doi: 10.1055/a-1654-0632. Epub 2021 Nov 16.ABSTRACTThe key to the diagnosis of ocular motor disorders is a systematic clinical examination of the different types of eye movements, including eye position, spontaneous nystagmus, range of eye movements, smooth pursuit, saccades, gaze-holding function, vergence, optokinetic nystagmus, as well as testing of the function of the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and visual fixation suppression of the VOR. This is like a window which allows you to look into the brain stem and cerebellum even if imaging is normal. Relevant anatomical ...

Associations of Dietary Intakes of Vitamins B1 and B3 with Risk of Mortality from Cardiovascular Disease among Japanese Men and Women: the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Higher dietary intakes of vitamins B1 and B3 were inversely associated with mortality from ischemic heart disease and a higher dietary intake of vitamin B1 was inversely associated with a reduced risk of mortality from heart failure among Japanese men and women.PMID:35466893 | DOI:10.1017/S0007114522001209
