We conducted a study to determine the inter-rater reliability (IRR) of J-point location and measurement of the magnitude of ST elevation at the J-point on ECGs of patients with STEMI by emergency department (ED) doctors.HoonAccidentChin

P2Y12 platelet reactivity at baseline differed, as expected, according to the presence or not of P2Y12 inhibitors and according to the potency of the drug (clopidogrel or ticagrelor) (Figure 2). At baseline, there was ...
See dramatic R-wave prolongation and loss of q-wave at 5-min point. Middle part of IVS demonstrates ST-segment elevation without significant activation delay, whereas nonischemic LV apex shows no changes. (B) LAT medians (lines), interquartile range (boxes), mean (crosses) and limits (...
Vapor-Liquid-Solid (triple point; whisker-growth mechanism for single-crystal growth). VLSI Very-Large-Scale Integration. Used both in a restricted technical sense (>10,000 transistors but less than 1,000,000 transistors), and in a more inclusive general sense, roughly including anything larger...

First results of the DEB-AMI (drug eluting balloon in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) trial: a multicentre randomized comparison of drug-eluting balloon plus bare-metal stent versus bare-metal stent versus drug-eluting stent in primary percutaneous coronary intervention with 6-month ...
Although we agree that SBP reduction should be the goal, caution has to be exercised in lowering the diastolic component beyond a critical “J-point.” This might be even more important in elderly patients where DBP might already be reduced due to age at onset of therapy. Antihypertensive ...
point in human development, everyone should have the opportunity to express themselves freely, for free… without the fear that the money men will intrude and buy everything up to control it.. I am reminded of the conversation between Joseph Heller and Kurt Vonnegut where Heller tells Kurt ...
The ECG showed inferolateral ST-segment elevation and the echocardiogram showed hypokinesia of the inferior and anterolateral segments of the left ventricle, with preserved function (EF 52%). Troponin I was very increased. Cardiac MRI supported the diagnosis of myocardi...
