Fulminant Myocarditis With ST Elevation and Cardiogenic Shock in a SARS-CoV-2 Patient.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was first described in patients in Wuhan, China, who presented with flu-like symptoms. Since then, it has spread all over the world and in March 2020 it was labeled as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. Most common presentations include respiratory symptoms that vary from mild cough and shortness of breath to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Bilateral Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Bilateral Intracranial Hemorrhage With Reversible Cardiomyopathy During Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography.

Dobutamine stress echocardiogram (DSE) is routinely used in the clinical assessment of patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). DSE can cause serious complications including cerebrovascular accident (CVA). Even though the incidence of CVA associated with DSE is very low (<0.

Cytochrome P450 1B1 Contributes to the Development of Atherosclerosis and Hypertension in Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mice.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1B1 contributes to vascular smooth muscle cell growth and hypertension in male mice. This study was conducted to determine the contribution of CYP1B1 to the development of atherosclerosis and hypertension and associated pathogenesis in 8-week-old male apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)/Cyp1b1(+/+)), and ApoE- and CYP1B1-deficient (ApoE(-/-)/Cyp1b1(-/-)) mice fed a normal or atherogenic diet for 12 weeks. A separate group of ApoE(-/-)/Cyp1b1(+/+) mice on an atherogenic diet was injected every third day with the CYP1B1 inhibitor, 2,3',4,5'-tetramethoxystilbene (300 μg/kg), or its vehicle, dimethyl sulfoxide (30 μL, IP); systolic blood pressure was measured by the tail cuff method.
