Therapeutic Inertia in Dyslipidemia Management for Secondary Cardiovascular Prevention: Results from the Italian ITACARE-P Network.

This study assessed the proportion of secondary cardiovascular prevention patients who achieved low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol targets as per the 2019 ESC/EAS Dyslipidemia Guidelines. We also evaluated whether lipid-lowering therapies (LLTs) were adjusted in patients not meeting targets and analyzed the likelihood of these modifications achieving recommended levels. A multicenter, cross-sectional observational study retrospectively reviewed medical records of 1909 outpatients in 9 Italian cardiac rehabilitation/secondary prevention clinics from January 2023 to June 2024.

Autotransplatation of immature third molars as substitutes for congenitally missing second premolars: an alternative solution in a young patient with oligodontia.

Auto transplantation of immature donor teeth can be a strategic therapeutic solution in young patients. It is preferable to choose this approach instead of prosthetic restorations because it offers a unique and definitive solution. Orthodontic space closure is not always deemed desirable, especially in non-extraction cases (53,54).

Acute Epstein-Barr related myocarditis: An unusual but life-threatening disease in an immunocompetent patient.

Myocarditis is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening disease. Clinical manifestations could range from subclinical disease to sudden death, due to fulminant heart failure and/or malignant ventricular arrhythmias. The most common cause of myocarditis is viral infection, including Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).

Protein Engineering of Multi-Modular Transcription Factor Alcohol Dehydrogenase Repressor 1 (Adr1p), a Tool for Dissecting In Vitro Transcription Activation.

Studying transcription machinery assembly is challenging because of long intrinsically disordered regions present within the multi-modular transcription factors. One example is alcohol dehydrogenase repressor 1 (Adr1p) from fermenting yeast, responsible for the metabolic switch from glucose to ethanol. The role of each individual transcription activation domain (TAD) has been previously studied, but their interplay and their roles in enhancing the stability of the protein is not known.

Usefulness of transthoracic echocardiogram in management of cardiac involvement in large B-Cell lymphoma: a case report.

Primary lymphoma often involve the heart, especially the right side. Prompt diagnosis is necessary to start the right therapy and decrease symptoms and death risk rate. Transthoracic echocardiogram is the first line exam to perform when symptoms are suspicious of mediastinal mass.
