Low Attainment of Treatment Targets for Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Indonesian Adults With Established Coronary Artery Disease.
J Eval Clin Pract
February 2025
Department of Vascular Medicine, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, the Netherlands.
Rationale: Established coronary artery disease (CAD) patients are at increased risk for recurrence of cardiovascular events and mortality due to non-attainment of recommended risk factor control targets.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the attainment of treatment targets for risk factor control among CAD patients as recommended in the Indonesian CVD prevention guidelines.
Methods: Patients were consecutively recruited from the Makassar Cardiac Center at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Indonesia.
Predictive value of peripheral blood indicators plus procalcitonin clearance rate for mortality in cancer patients with sepsis.

This study investigated the predictive value of combining peripheral blood indicators with procalcitonin clearance rate (PCTc) to assess mortality risk in cancer patients with sepsis, aiming to develop a more sensitive and specific clinical tool. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 393 cancer patients with sepsis admitted to South China Hospital of Shenzhen University from January 2019 to January 2024. Collected data included clinical demographics, laboratory indicators such as white blood cell count, neutrophil count (NEUT), platelet count (PLT), lymphocyte count (LYC), C-reactive protein, procalcitonin (PCT), alanine aminotransferase, and the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to inspired oxygen fraction, as well as functional scores like Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment.

Brainstem infarct from cervical vertebral artery dissection presenting as a transient Parinaud syndrome.

Department of Ophthalmology, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, 645 N Michigan Ave, Suite 440, Chicago, IL, 60611, USA.
Purpose: To report a case of transient diplopia and upgaze paresis in the setting of acute dorsal midbrain infarcts from a cervical vertebral artery dissection in an otherwise healthy man.
Observations: A 33-year old man presented to the ophthalmology urgent clinic with a 1 h history of blurred and double vision, asthenopia, and a mild focal left posterior headache. Ocular motility examination revealed a profound upgaze palsy and convergence-retraction horizontal jerk nystagmus in attempted upgaze that gradually improved over the course of 1 h.
Background: High levels of catecholamines are cardiotoxic and associated with stress-induced cardiomyopathies. Septic patients are routinely exposed to endogenously released and exogenously administered catecholamines, which may alter cardiac function and perfusion causing ischemia. Early during human septic shock, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decreases but normalizes in survivors over 7-10 days.
