Efficacy of Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor (ARNI) in Right Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction and Preserved LV Ejection fraction: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor (ARNI) has not shown to be promising in Heart failure with preserved LVEF. Role of ARNI in Right ventricular systolic dysfunction with preserved LVEF needs to be evaluated. We took 50 patients with isolated RV systolic dysfunction and divided them into two groups of 25 patients each- Conventional treatment and ARNI in addition to conventional treatment.

Utility of multimodal imaging in the clinical diagnosis of inherited retinal degenerations.

Inherited retinal degeneration (IRD) is a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders of variable onset and severity, with vision loss being a common endpoint in most cases. More than 50 distinct IRD phenotypes and over 280 causative genes have been described. Establishing a clinical phenotype for patients with IRD is particularly challenging due to clinical variability even among patients with similar genotypes.

NR2E3-Associated Retinopathy Presenting with Bilateral Choroidal Neovascularization.

Purpose: We describe an atypical presentation of an 11-year-old female with enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS).

Methods: Case report. The patient underwent a thorough ophthalmic examination and investigations such as colour fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein and indocyanine angiography, an electroretinogram and genetic testing.

Evolving concepts in intracranial pressure monitoring - from traditional monitoring to precision medicine.

A wide range of acute brain injuries, including both traumatic and non-traumatic causes, can result in elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), which in turn can cause further secondary injury to the brain, initiating a vicious cascade of propagating injury. Elevated ICP is therefore a neurological injury that requires intensive monitoring and time-sensitive interventions. Patients at high risk for developing elevated ICP undergo placement of invasive ICP monitors including external ventricular drains, intraparenchymal ICP monitors, and lumbar drains.

What Are High-Quality Race and Ethnicity Data and How Are They Used in Health Equity Research?

The COVID-19 pandemic changed public awareness of the importance of high-quality race and ethnicity data for identifying and redressing widely documented racial and ethnic health inequity. This article emphasizes the importance of high-quality race and ethnicity data in health equity research, as highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The article defines what constitutes high-quality race and ethnicity data, discusses challenges in using these data, and provides 2 cases that illustrate the role of these data in identifying and redressing health inequity.
