Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species in Myocardial Infarction: Mechanistic Insights and Clinical Correlations Open
Background/Objectives: Myocardial infarction (MI) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, driven largely by underlying coronary artery disease (CAD). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) p…

Nonlinear Rayleigh wave propagation in a three-layer sandwich structure in dual-phase-lag Open
Plane, nonlinear Rayleigh wave propagation is investigated in a three-layer sandwich structure of a thermoelastic medium, within the frame of dual-phase-lag theory. The thermal conductivity is taken as a linear function of temperature. Thi…

Engraftment Syndrome, an Unusual Complication during Autologous Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma Patients Receiving Checkpoint Inhibitors As Salvage Therapy in the Pre-Transplant Setting Open
Background: Autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation (APSCT) after PD-1- blockade resulted in favorable outcomes in patients (pts) with multiply refractory / relapsed (R/R) Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Response to PD-1- blockade by immu…

New left ventricular thrombus and embolic events in left ventricular dysfunction postmyocardial infarction Open
Background: We aimed to assess the incidence and evolution of new left ventricular thrombus (LVT), and the incidence of manifest systemic embolism, in patients with severe left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction postacute anterior myoca…

High Response Rate to Carboplatin-Paclitaxel-Cetuximab and Pembrolizumab in Patients with Recurrent and/or Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Open
The management of R/M HNSCC is rapidly evolving with new available treatment molecules and combination modalities. Anti-EGFR cetuximab (CTX) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) can be used either alone or in combination with conventiona…

Genome-wide association study for systemic lupus erythematosus in an egyptian population Open
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) susceptibility has a strong genetic component. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) across trans-ancestral populations show both common and distinct genetic variants of susceptibility across European an…

Spontaneous regression of severe aortic stenosis after massive embolization in a patient with antiphospholipid syndrome Open
Summary We present a case of probably unreported aortic stenosis evolution in a patient with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). A female patient, 54 years old, with a history of recurrent deep venous thrombosis, an episode of pulmona…

Platelet reactivity on brand and generic clopidogrel chronic therapy Open
Introduction: Generic drugs are approved when they are shown to be bio-equivalent in their pharmacokinetic profiles. Whether the pharmacological effect of the generic formulation is similar to the brand is not always easy to see if there i…

Epidemiology of bacteremia after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the absence of antibiotic prophylaxis Open
Introduction: Bacterial infections are frequent complications occurring after autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (AHSCT). Herein, we identified the bacterial ecology and its antibiogram in AHSCT patients. We assessed the in…

Physiological evaluation of the provisional side-branch intervention strategy for bifurcation lesions using instantaneous wave-free ratio Open
Using iFR for physiological assessment during the provisional side-branch intervention strategy can reduce the procedural time and length of hospital stay in patients with bifurcation lesions. Larger trials should compare the clinical outc…

Polygamy and Risk of Coronary Artery Disease in Men Undergoing Angiography: An Observational Study Open
Epidemiologic evidence suggests a link between psychosocial risk factors such as marital status and coronary artery disease (CAD). Polygamy (multiple concurrent wives) is a distinct marital status practiced in many countries in Asia and th…

Divorce and Severity of Coronary Artery Disease: A Multicenter Study Open
The association between marital status and coronary artery disease (CAD) is supported by numerous epidemiological studies. While divorce may have an adverse effect on cardiac outcomes, the relationship between divorce and severe CAD is unc…
