Left Ventricular Strain: A Reliable Predictor of Short-Term Outcomes in Patients with Anterior Wall Myocardial Infarction without Heart Failure.

Background: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a key determinant in decision-making after acute myocardial infarction (MI). Little is known of its relationship with left ventricular Strain and N-Terminal fragment of pro-B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-pro-BNP) following acute anterior wall MI (AWMI).

Materials And Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study of patients with a diagnosis of acute AWMI and the absence of overt heart failure (HF).

"ADR PvPI" Android mobile app: Report adverse drug reaction at any time anywhere in India.

Background: To improve the public health and promote instant adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting, a need to develop an ADR Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) mobile app was identified by the National Coordination CentrePvPI (NCCPvPI) to serve the Pan India ADR reporting. The objective of this study was to develop an indigenous Googlebased Android mobile application known as "ADR PvPI" and to analyze the ADRrelated data reported through this mobile application on pilot basis.

Materials And Methods: The ADR PvPI mobile application was indigenously developed by NCCPvPI officials within 6 months.
