Antithrombotic Therapy in Stroke Patients

—

by

Introduction:Ischemic stroke remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with cardioembolic strokes accounting for a significant portion of cases. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) plays a crucial role in detecting cardiac sources of embolism, guiding effective secondary stroke prevention. A recent study explores the impact of TEE findings on the readjustment of antithrombotic therapy in…

Resolved Atrioventricular Block and Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Wegener’s Granulomatosis

—

by

Introduction: Wegener’s granulomatosis, now known as granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), is a rare but severe systemic vasculitis primarily affecting the respiratory tract and kidneys. However, cardiac involvement, though less common, can significantly impact patient outcomes. This case report explores the complete resolution of atrioventricular (AV) block and severe left ventricular dysfunction in a patient with…

Alamandine Levels in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis A New Insight into the Renin Angiotensin System

—

by

Introduction: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and progressive lung disease characterized by excessive scarring of lung tissue, leading to severe respiratory complications. A recent study has highlighted a significant reduction in Alamandine, a key peptide in the Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS), in patients with IPF. Understanding this imbalance could open new avenues for treatment.…
