    DOI Logo 10.17352/2455-2976.000175

    Published On: December 09, 2021 | Pages: 079 - 102

    Author(s): Joseph P Lynch III*, Michael C Fishbein, Jason S Bradfield and John A Belperio
    Clinically evident cardiac involvement has been noted in at least 2 to 7% of patients with sarcoidosis, but occult involvement is much higher (> 20%). Cardiac Sarcoidosis (CS) is often not recognized as an antemortem, as sudden death may be the presenting feature. Cardiac involvement may occur at any point during the course of sarcoidosis and may occur in the absence ...

    Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease characterized by progressive glicosphingolipid accumulation in multiple organs, due to α-galactosidase a deficiency [1]. It is considered a rare disease although newborn genetic screening showed non-negligible prevalence (∼1:3.900) [1]. Cardiac manifestations include progressive Left Ventricular (LV ...

    Increased risk of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) has been well established for decades and bolstered by countless studies since the 1950’s [1,2]. Numerous papers have explored the pathogenesis and have demonstrated that the systemic inflammation caused in RA increases arterial stiffness, which may result from loss of elasticity ...

    Background: Arterial hypertension is associated with tissue remodeling, oxidative stress and decreased production of such vasorelaxants as nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Garlic shows promises in treatment of hypertension and could be used as an antioxidative agent and a source/precursor of H2S for decreasing of blood vessel stiffness. Objective: The ai ...

    The introduction of atrial switch operation allowed to prolong the life expectancy of those born with transposition of the great arteries. This operation involves extensive surgery in the atria and leaves the right ventricle as the systemic ventricle that develops dysfunction because its anatomy is not intended to handle systemic pressure over a lifetime. We hypothesi ...
