Background: Catheter of atrial fibrillation is still challenging because of the high degree of variability of the pulmonary vein anatomy. Therefore, 3D imaging systems are frequently used prior to an ablation procedure. Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography provides...
Aims:To report the effect of prophylactic usage of levosimendan in patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: We reported early results of 32 patients (26 male and 6 female; mean age 61.630 ± 9.653 years) who ...
Background: Hypoxic stimulus induces a homeostatic disruption to enhance physiological adaptation. Blood flow in the microcirculation plays an important role in maintaining healthy tissues by delivering oxygen. The cutaneous microcirculations responses to short systemic hypoxia a...
Background: Follow-up of patients destined to develop primary hypertension (HTN) demonstrates that blood pressure (BP) readings gradually increase over time. Aim: Determine and analyze the prevalence and correlates of both pre-HTN and HTN among recruits serving in Wadi Al-Dawasir...
Background and Aim: Catheter ablation has become the therapy of choice in patients with symptomatic, recurrent, drug-refractory atrial fibrillation (AF). However, frequent AF recurrences often necessitate an adjunctive antiarrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy. Dronedarone is a new class...
Angiosarcomas are collectively one of the rare forms of soft tissue neoplasms. That of the large intestine is much rarer. We report a case of large intestinal angiosarcoma. This is a case of a 30-year-old man who presented with intestinal obstruction, and after resection, it was...
Background: Clinical experience in specific geo-demographic contexts in diabetes and myocardial infarction (MI) deserves examination in the context of current medical knowledge and redefinition for enlightened evidence based medical practice. Aim: Study aims to examine regional s...
Integrated health documentation captures, imports and exports relevant extract of patient’s longitudinal health information record. Especially documenting patients’ chronic disease data in dental documentation system is crucial. Aim: Analyze chronic patients’ health information i...
Purpose: Both Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) are equally important to analyze the associations between blood pressure and its associated risk covariates. Quantitative analyses however, sometime provide separate results for SBP and DBP. It is more...
Objective: Study the effects of aerobic exercises on autonomic imbalance associated with menopausal women. Methods: The study included twenty postmenopausal women (age 50.7± 0.86 mean ± SEM years old). All of them underwent 6 months of aerobic training program (3 sessions per wee...
