Streptokinase intracoronary thrombolytic therapy (ITT) was given to 68 of 135 patients with large-focal myocardial infarction (MI) admitted to hospital within 6 hours of the attack. Coronary flow was recovered in 31 MI patients. The size of the necrotic focus was assessed on the basis of precordial cartograms from 35 ECG leads and serial measurements of MB CPK activity. ITT achieving successful thrombolysis is conducive to rapid formation and accelerated repair of the necrotic focus in MI patients. The recovery of coronary circulation after 3 hours of infarction was accompanied by the reperfusion syndrome, i. e. rapid necrotization of the ischemized region, a considerable release of MB CPK into the circulation, complex cardiac rhythm and conductivity disorders, and signs of transient heart failure.

The efficacy of core decompression combined with regenerative therapy in early femoral head necrosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis involving 954 subjects.

Department of Orthopedics, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Background: The debate continues on whether combining core decompression (CD) with regenerative therapy provides a more effective treatment for early femoral head necrosis than CD alone. This systematic review and meta-analysis endeavored to assess its efficacy.
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library through July 2024 for RCTs and cohort studies evaluating the impact of core decompression (CD) with regenerative therapy versus CD alone in early-stage osteonecrosis (ARCO I, II or IIIa or Ficat I or II) of the femoral head (ONFH).
Sevelamer-induced Gastrointestinal Mucosal Injury: A Critical Review for Clinicians.

Sevelamer is a non-absorbable polymer used to treat hyperphosphatemia in individuals with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis. The deposition of sevelamer crystals in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, especially in the colon, can cause mucosal inflammation, pseudopolyps, ulceration, ischemia, or necrosis. Owing to its rarity and lack of physician awareness, the actual incidence and prevalence of sevelamer-induced gastrointestinal mucosal injury (SIGMI) remain unknown.

Although a rare medical condition, gastric ischemia is a medical emergency and requires prompt recognition. Current literature review is scarce, with a primary focus on iatrogenic, surgical, and vascular etiologies. The cases discussed focus on hypoperfusion secondary to refractory shock as the etiology of gastric ischemia and, unfortunately, death.

Background: Femoral head necrosis (FHN) is a debilitating bone disease affecting an estimated 8 million people worldwide. Although specific drugs for FHN have limitations, targeted therapies have shown promising results. The significance of this study is underscored by the high prevalence of FHN, the limitations of current treatments, and the potential of targeted drugs and natural compounds for effective therapeutic interventions.
