We report a case of acute myocardial infarction during combined chemotherapy with bleomycin, etoposide and cisplatin for testicular cancer. A 30-year-old smoker without any history of ischemic heart disease complained of sudden chest pain on the ninth day of his third course of chemotherapy. An electrocardiogram showed ST segment elevation in II, III and aVF. Emergency coronary angiography revealed total occlusion of the right coronary artery by a thrombus, which was removed by coronary atherectomy.

Background: Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a prevalent pathogen in pediatric community-acquired pneumonia. Currently, limited literature exists on the clinical utilization of pathogen-targeted sequencing technologies.
Methods: Targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) technology was employed to analyze bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from 1,070 hospitalized pediatric patients with acute lower respiratory tract infections.

Introduction: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended for pain treatment after elective hip and knee arthroplasties. However, evidence regarding the incidence of adverse effects with short-term NSAID treatment following surgery is limited. We, therefore, aim to assess the adverse effects with an eight-day postoperative treatment with ibuprofen after elective hip and knee arthroplasties.

Angiomyolipoma (AML), composed of smooth muscle cells, blood vessels, and adipose tissues, belongs to a family of tumors originating from perivascular epithelioid cells. Angiomyolipoma most commonly arises in the kidney but is extremely rare in the nasal cavity. Angiomyolipoma is classified into hepatorenal and mucocutaneous AML.

Remimazolam (Rema) is a novel anesthetic that is widely used in anesthesia and sedation in critically ill patients. Notably, Rema exerts effects in patients through activation of the γ‑aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA may alleviate myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury; however, the impact of Rema and underlying molecular mechanism in myocardial I/R injury remain to be fully understood.

Pharmacologic beta-blockade is a well-established therapy for reducing adverse effects from sympathetic overactivity in cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure. Despite decades of research efforts, in vivo cardiac functional studies utilizing genetic animal models remain scant. We generated a mouse model of cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of beta-1 adrenergic receptor (ADRB1) , the primary subtype expressed in cardiac myocytes, and demonstrated the role for ADRB1 in the maintenance of cardiac function at baseline and during exposure to increase in cardiac afterload by transient aortic occlusion and increasing heart rates (HRs) via atrial pacing.
