The NOAA NCEI marine microplastics database.

Microplastics (<5 mm) pollution is a growing problem affecting coastal communities, marine ecosystems, aquatic life, and human health. The widespread occurrence of marine microplastics, and the need to curb its threats, require expansive, and continuous monitoring. While microplastic research has increased in recent years and generated significant volumes of data, there is a lack of a robust, open access, and long-term aggregation of this data.

Ivabradine as a stabilising anti-arrhythmic agent for multifocal atrial tachycardia.

Multifocal atrial tachycardia has certain electrocardiographic similarities to atrial fibrillation. The mechanism of atrial fibrillation is heterogenous but in some cases may arise from a single ectopic driver with fibrillatory conduction to the rest of the atria. This has led to the speculation that multifocal atrial tachycardia may have a similar mechanistic unifocal site that disperses through the atrium in a fibrillatory pattern.

Left Ventricular Aneurysm in a Child After Recovering From Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

Left ventricular aneurysms are extremely rare in children. A child developed an aneurysm a year after recovering from idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. The initial management was conservative.

An unusual presentation of a large cardiac mass.

We present a case of a large left ventricular capillary haemangioma incidentally discovered in a pre-adolescent patient.
