Hydatid cysts in the anterior chest wall are an exceedingly rare complication and much rarer if it is associated with liver HC. A 53-year-old man presented to our clinic with a painless anterior chest wall mass (ACWM). Thoraco-abdominal computed tomography revealed simple cystic masses localized in the ACWM in subcutaneous tissue with no invasion of the peripheral soft tissue and no pulmonary or rib involvement. An echinococcal indirect hemagglutination test was negative. Dermoid cyst was considered as a diagnosis and the encapsulated masses were dissected through its plane in peripheral tissue adhesion and removed completely. Macroscopic and microscopic examination of the specimens confirmed hydatid cysts. Further organ evaluation revealed the liver hydatid cyst. The patient was referred for surgery where he underwent laparotomy and drainage of cyst content and capitonaged into peritoneal cavity. This case report demonstrates that hydatid cysts should be considered as a possible cause for palpable lesions in the chest wall, especially in endemic locations.","PeriodicalId":416388,"journal":{"name":"Global Cardiology Science and Practice","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136072886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This syndrome has been linked to coronary atherosclerosis, and medical products that express gal are routinely used in cardiology and cardiac surgery. This article seeks to discuss potential implications of alpha syndrome as it relates to cardiovascular health and to heighten awareness in the cardiovascular community about this emerging public health issue.","PeriodicalId":416388,"journal":{"name":"Global Cardiology Science and Practice","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117057817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the last 60 years, we have seen the rise and fall of numerous prescription and illicit agents that have caused severe and deadly outbreaks of PAH. Currently, drugs and toxins are classified into “possible” and “definite” risk factors for PAH. While the exact mechanisms and pathogenesis of drug- and toxin-induced PAH are currently unknown, novel clinical and basic science studies are beginning to unravel the biologic factors and genetic underpinnings responsible for disease development. The clinical management of affected patients can be challenging as it is often difficult to identify patients early and demonstrate causality between drugs and PAH. Given the recent trends in drug utilization and development, it is highly likely that we will continue to identify new agents capable of causing pulmonary vascular disease. We must keep a high index of suspicion in order to identify patients and new compounds deemed definite or likely risk factors for PAH. Practicing pharmacovigilance, raising awareness, and working in tandem with PH patient associations and drug regulatory agencies may ultimately be our most effective strategy in preventing the next deadly outbreak of drug- and toxin-induced PAH.","PeriodicalId":416388,"journal":{"name":"Global Cardiology Science and Practice","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122831946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, microparticles serve as cell-cell messengers by transfer of biological information to target cells in pathophysiological settings and have proven to be prominent biomarkers for health and physiology assessments for both diagnostic and risk stratification purposes. This review describes the mechanisms of microparticles formation, release and clearance, and their detection by currently available and applicable methods.

The progressive and irreversible pulmonary vascular disease is more often the consequence of a significant, uncorrected, left-to-right shunt. The rise in pulmonary vascular resistance may lead to the reversal of the shunt and cyanosis, condition known as Eisenmenger syndrome. The management of this population is challenging and requires specific expertise both for diagnosis and follow-up. The progress in the understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of this condition has promoted recent pharmacological trials. New therapeutic options are now available that could improve the long-term prognosis and the quality of life of these patients, but several controversial points still remain and need to be addressed.","PeriodicalId":416388,"journal":{"name":"Global Cardiology Science and Practice","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122543460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing guidelines are helpful in addressing these tenets in many cases, often using quantifiable parameters to aid the clinician in making key clinical decisions. Many times these guidelines allow the physician and patient to arrive easily at a management strategy. However, in other cases it may take every piece of available data to develop a management plan that is still only a best guess at the proper course to take. Overall, the indications for intervention in VHD are straightforward: valvotomy (in mitral stenosis), or valve repair or valve replacement is indicated when severe VHD causes symptoms or cardiac dysfunction. In some cases, low-risk intervention such as mitral valve repair may be undertaken in the absence of symptoms or dysfunction when it seems inevitable that deterioration will occur because of markedly severe disease. These assessments are rarely made using one test and usually require the integration of all the clinical acumen that can be summoned to address the issues above. The following will summarize the general approach to the assessment of VHD severity, impact, and timing of intervention, with attention paid to the specifics of each individual disease.","PeriodicalId":416388,"journal":{"name":"Global Cardiology Science and Practice","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131670222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
