Transient AV Complete Heart Block: A Rare Complication Following Regadenoson Injection Open
Regadenoson is an A2A adenosine receptor agonist designed to selectively and transiently produce coronary vasodilation. Although regadenoson is a relatively selective A2A receptor agonist, it also has some weak action on the A1 receptor (1…

Inhaled Nitric Oxide as an Adjunct to Thrombolytic Therapy in a Patient with Submassive Pulmonary Embolism and Severe Hypoxemia Open
Introduction . Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a selective pulmonary vasodilator with limited indications in adults. We present a patient with hypoxemia and right ventricular dysfunction due to submassive acute pulmonary emboli where iNO was…

A Case of Isolated Left Ventricular Non-Compaction Cardiomyopathy in a HIV Patient Presenting With Acute Heart Failure Open
The etiology of cardiomyopathy in a HIV patient is multifactorial. Identifying the etiology of cardiomyopathy in a HIV patient needs extensive evaluation. Common causes include ischemic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis due to viral infections a…

Preclinical cardiac disease in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease with and without metabolic syndrome. Open
Healthy adults with NAFLD without metabolic syndrome, after adjusting for body mass index, demonstrated significant echocardiographic changes. Our results show that NAFLD is associated with preclinical cardiac disease, and this association…

What are the odds - Concurrent lower extremity venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, septal embolic myocardial infarction and patent foramen ovale Open
Cerebral ischemic events are more commonly associated with PFOs than non-cerebral paradoxical systemic events, incidence of latter being only around 5–10% of all paradoxical embolisms. Coronary artery embolism and associated MI is more com…

The metabolic model of heart failure: the role of sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibition Open
Heart failure (HF) is one of the leading causes of hospital readmissions and health care expenditures. With a vast degree of advancements in the clinical approach and diagnosis, its management protocol is limited in terms of enhancing qual…

An Unusual Case of Ototoxicity with Use of Oral Vancomycin Open
Introduction . Systemic absorption of oral vancomycin is poor due to the size of the molecule and its pharmacokinetics. It has an elimination half life of 5–11 hours in patients with normal renal function. We present a rare case of ototoxi…
