Isolated acute right ventricular (RV) infarction is rare, and ECG diagnosis may be difficult. We report two cases of acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation in anterior precordial leads caused by such an RV involvement. Potential mechanisms for the relationship are given. 相似文献

The number of leads needed in clinical electrocardiography depends on the clinical problem to be solved. The standard 12-lead ECG is so well established that alternative lead systems must prove their advantage through well-conducted clinical studies to achieve clinical acceptance. Certain additional leads seem to add valuable information in specific patient groups. The use of a large number of leads (eg, in body surface potential mapping) may add clinically relevant information, but it is cumbersome and its clinical advantage is yet to be proven. Reduced lead sets emulate the 12-lead ECG reasonably well and are especially advantageous in emergency situations. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: It is still unknown whether or not the additional right precordial leads (RPL) during exercise testing contribute to detection of coronary artery disease (CAD). HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to evaluate the RPL during exercise testing for the detection of CAD. METHODS: The study included 157 consecutive patients (116 men and 41 women, mean age 66 years) suspected of having CAD, who underwent conclusive treadmill exercise testing (heart rate reached at least 85% of the predicted maximum or positive electrocardiogram [ECG] changes were exhibited) and coronary angiography. During exercise testing, the ECG was recorded with the standard 12 leads and 4 RPL (V3R, V4R, V5R, V6R). RESULTS: Of the 157 patients, 67 had CAD (> 75% stenosis in at least one major coronary artery), and 64 had positive ST changes in the standard ECG leads during exercise testing. Using the conventional 12-lead method, sensitivity and specificity were 76 and 86%, respectively. Only three patients exhibited positive changes in the RPL leads; all had > 0.1 mV ST elevation in one of the RPL leads with > 0.1 mV ST elevation in aVR. Two of these patients had significant right coronary artery lesions and the other had a lesion of the left anterior descending artery which perfused the inferior as well as the anteroseptal area. In the standard 12 leads, one of the patients with an abnormal RPL and a right coronary lesion was negative, while the other two patients were positive. Combining RPL with the conventional 12-lead method, sensitivity and specificity were 78 and 86%, respectively. Therefore, RPL did not improve the accuracy of the exercise ECG. CONCLUSION: The use of RPL during exercise testing may contribute to the detection of ischemia perfused by the right coronary artery; however, it does not improve the diagnostic accuracy of the exercise test. 相似文献

The pathway from clinical suspicion to establishing the diagnosis of biliary atresia in a child with jaundice is a daunting task. However, investigations available help to point towards the correct diagnosis in reasonable time frame. Imaging by Sonography has identified several parameters which can be of utility in the diagnostic work up. Comparison of Sonography with imaging by Nuclear medicine can bring out the significant differences and also help in appropriate imaging. The battery of Biochemical tests, available currently, enable better understanding of the line-up of investigations in a given child with neonatal cholestasis. Management protocols enable standardized care with optimal outcome. The place of surgical management in biliary atresia is undisputed, although Kasai procedure and primary liver transplantation have been pitted against each other. This article functions as a platform to bring forth the various dimensions of biliary atresia. 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) elimination by 2030, using direct-acting antiviral treatments, has been promoted by the World Health Organization. This achievement is not attainable, however, particularly after the 2020 pandemic of the coronavirus disease 2019. Consequently, the more realistic objective of eliminating HCV from population segments for which targeted strategies of prevention and treatment are easily attained has been promoted in Europe, as a valid alternative. The underlying idea is that micro-elimination will ultimately lead to macro-elimination. The micro-elimination strategy may target different specific populations and at-risk groups. Different settings, including prisons and hospitals, have also been identified as micro-elimination scenarios. In addition, dedicated micro-elimination strategies have been designed that are tailored at the geographical level according to HCV epidemiology and individual country’s income. The main elements of a valid and successful micro-elimination project are reliable epidemiological data and active involvement of all the stakeholders. Community involvement represents another essential component for a successful program. 相似文献

Large comparative studies and multiple prospective randomized control trials (RCTs) have reported equivalence in short and long-term outcomes between the open and laparoscopic approaches for the surgical treatment of colon cancer which has heralded widespread acceptance for laparoscopic resection of colon cancer. In contrast, laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (TME) for the treatment of rectal cancer has been welcomed with significantly less enthusiasm. While it is likely that patients with rectal cancer will experience the same benefits of early recovery and decreased postoperative pain from the laparoscopic approach, whether the same oncologic clearance, specifically an adequate TME can be obtained is of concern. The aim of the current study is to review the current level of evidence in the literature on laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery with regard to short-term and long-term oncologic outcomes. The data from 8 RCTs, 3 meta-analyses, and 2 Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews was reviewed. Current data suggests that laparoscopic rectal cancer resection may benefit patients with reduced blood loss, earlier return of bowel function, and shorter hospital length of stay. Concerns that laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery compromises short-term oncologic outcomes including number of lymph nodes retrieved and circumferential resection margin and jeopardizes long-term oncologic outcomes has not conclusively been refuted by the available literature. Laparoscopic rectal cancer resection is feasible but whether or not it compromises short-term or long-term results still needs to be further studied. 相似文献

The laboratory criteria (lupus anticoagulants (LA), and/or anti-cardiolipin (aCL) antibodies and/or anti-β2-glycoprotein I antibodies (aβ2GPI)) that define patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) were set in the Sapporo and Sydney criteria published in 1999 and 2006, respectively, and led to a substantial improvement in the recognition of APS. In addition, guidelines for LA detection were published by the Scientific Standardisation Subcommittee (SSC) of the International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) in 2009. However, a number of questions on this respect remain unresolved. Recommendations for the aCL and aβ2GPI assays intended to ameliorate the performance of these solid-phase assays. Despite efforts over the years, standardization has not been reached. This review will focus on methodological issues of the three antiphospholipid antibody (aPL) subtypes that are the subject of debate. The use of an international standard for aPL detection might help solve many of the problems caused by a lack of standardization of these assays. 相似文献
