Key Clinical Message: Healthcare workers are prone to very high level of physical as well as emotional stress that lead to devastating health-related consequences which include but not limited to cardiovascular events that may lead to death. Recognizing the risk of Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy among healthcare worker is the main aim of this report.
Abstract: Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TC) is a reversible left ventricular wall motion abnormality that could not be explained by coronary artery disease and is typically precipitated by either emotional or physical stress. There is no sufficient data regarding the incidence of TC among healthcare workers and people with myocardial bridging. Here we are describing a case of an ophthalmologist with myocardial bridging who developed TC while in the operation theater.

Prevalence of anomalies and variants of coronary arteries: A single center study by coronary CT angiography.

Mersin University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Anatomy, Mersin, Turkey.
Purpose: It has been demonstrated that the coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are generally asymptomatic. However, some cases can cause severe life threatening events. As coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has emerged as a non-invasive alternative to invasive coronary angiography for the evaluation of coronary anatomy, the prevalence of CAAs in CCTA may more closely reflect the true prevalence in the general population.

Objectives: To investigate the correlation of serum levels of bridging integrating factor 1 (BIN1) with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and Killip class of the patients.
Methods: We retrospectively collected the data from 94 patients with AMI and 30 healthy individuals for analysis of the correlations of serum BIN1 levels with Killip class, TIMI scores, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). We also assessed the diagnostic value of BIN1 combined with NLR for AMI.

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases include myocardial infarction, a high mortality disease. Myocardial infarction patients are becoming younger, typically defined as patients under 45 years of age. This study analyzes the relevant papers on myocardial infarction in youth in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) between 1980 and 2023.
