Imaging-genomic spatial-modality attentive fusion for studying neuropsychiatric disorders.

Multimodal learning has emerged as a powerful technique that leverages diverse data sources to enhance learning and decision-making processes. Adapting this approach to analyzing data collected from different biological domains is intuitive, especially for studying neuropsychiatric disorders. A complex neuropsychiatric disorder like schizophrenia (SZ) can affect multiple aspects of the brain and biologies.

Cardiac arrest in the setting of probable catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome in young patient with a history of COVID infection and polyglandular disorder-Case report.

Antiphospholipid syndrome is an autoimmune disorder characterized by arterial and venous thrombosis and recurrent spontaneous abortions due to the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies. Probable Catastrophic antiphospholipid (Catastrophic antiphospholipid-like syndrome) is a life-threatening presentation of antiphospholipid syndrome which manifests as intravascular thrombosis, leading to rapid onset of symptoms and involvement of multiple organ systems. We present a case of a 28-year-old woman with a history of polyglandular autoimmune syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, provoked bilateral deep vein thrombosis in the setting of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection 2 years prior, and hypothyroidism who presents with a cardiac arrest in the setting of an acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction with thromboembolic occlusion of two coronary arteries simultaneously in the setting of noncompliance with anticoagulation for the past 1 week.

A Case Report on Uremic Toxins and Their Effects on Cardiac Rhythm: Understanding Junctional Ventricular Escape Rhythm in Renal Failure.

Understanding the reasons behind junctional ventricular escape rhythm is crucial for guiding the clinical management of patients. Various factors such as acidosis, hyperkalemia, metabolic toxins, digoxin toxicity, and BRASH syndrome (comprising bradycardia, renal failure, atrioventricular (AV) nodal blockade, shock, and hyperkalemia) should be considered when dealing with a symptomatic unstable patient in a hospital. In this case, we present an example where metabolic toxins, specifically uremia, in combination with other factors, lead the patient to enter a ventricular escape rhythm, ultimately resulting in cardiogenic shock.

Role of Deep Learning in Computed Tomography.

Computed tomography has played an instrumental role in the understanding of the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis in coronary artery disease. It enables visualization of the plaque obstruction and vessel stenosis in a comprehensive manner. As technology for computed tomography is constantly evolving, coronary applications and possibilities are constantly expanding.

Benefit and Preference of Propranolol Over Metoprolol in Thyrotoxicosis-Induced Atrial Fibrillation: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Atrial fibrillation is a common manifestation seen in patients with hyperthyroidism and thyroid storm. The presence of excess thyroid hormone (TH) alters adrenergic receptors in the heart and blood vessels, thereby causing an increase in sympathetic function and atrial fibrillation as a sequela of this excess circulating hormone. Excess thyroid hormone (T3) shortens the action potential of cardiomyocytes in the pulmonary vein, which facilitates the generation of reentrant circuits causing atrial fibrillation.
