[Effect of stress on myocardial apoptosis in ischemic preconditioning in rabbit hearts].

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how stress affects heart cell death in a specific heart protection model known as ischemic preconditioning (IPC).
- Twenty-four rabbits were divided into four groups to test the effects of various treatments on myocardial apoptosis using different scientific methods.
- Results indicated that while IPC and methylprednisolone showed lower levels of heart cell death compared to stressed and reperfusion groups, depressed stress response negatively impacted the heart's protective mechanism against apoptosis.
We report a case of an intravenous leiomyomatosis of uterine origin extending into the right atrium, which was treated by two-stage surgery.

Objective: To determine the use of septal plication with Dor or Cooley procedure for post infarction anterior and anterior-septal aneurysm of the left ventricle.
Methods: A total of 23 patients with post infarction anterior and anterior-septal aneurysm of the left ventricle underwent septal plication and Dor or Cooley procedure along with coronary artery bypass grafting concomitantly. Data of NYHA grading, left ventricular end diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were recorded before the surgery, before discharge and 3 months after the surgery.
