Treadmill tests were performed in one hundred men below 60, with computerized assessment of their ECG data. Reduced R wave amplitude from lead V5 at maximum exercise was only noted in subjects showing no electrocardiographic evidence of ischemia. Increased R wave from lead V5 was regarded as cardiac dysfunction in response to exercise, which, in the presence of ischemic ECG changes, preceded the development of pathologic ST depression. A negative T wave from leads III and aVF on resting ECG did not correlate with abnormal exercise test results. Ventricular arrhythmias were more common in subjects with non-ischemic ECG changes during exercise.

Myocarditis as a Possible Underlying Cause for Mid-Ventricular Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy: A Case Report.
Cureus

Medicine, Florida International University, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, Miami, USA.
Our case report characterizes a rare presentation of mid-ventricular Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) in a patient with suspected myocarditis as an underlying cause. Mid-ventricular TTC is a rare variant of TTC presenting with overlapping symptoms and physical exam findings of acute coronary syndrome, which often leads to misdiagnosis as myocardial infarction. Our case is of a 77-year-old female patient with a history of hyperlipidemia, right breast ductal carcinoma in situ, and diverticular disease who presented to the emergency department for evaluation of chest pain radiating to the jaw with associated nausea and vomiting.

Exergame has become widely popular and offers great levels of cognitive demands, thus may facilitate cognitive benefits. In addition, researchers have proposed that cardiac autonomic function, assessed via heart rate variability (HRV), is associated with cognitive executive function. However, few exergame training studies have investigated this relationship.

Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA.
Background: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) commonly have autonomic dysreflexia (AD) with increased sympathetic activity. After SCI, individuals have decreased baroreflex sensitivity and increased vascular responsiveness.
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between baroreflex and blood vessel sensitivity with AD symptoms.
Pregnancy-Related Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection in a 25-Year-Old Woman: A Case Report.

Pregnancy-related spontaneous coronary artery dissection (P-SCAD) is a life-threatening condition that occurs during or after pregnancy, is rare and can be overlooked. It is one of the most important causes of pregnancy-related acute myocardial infarction. A 25-year-old female patient was admitted with a complaint of chest pain in her 37th week of pregnancy.

Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) remains a major cause of death and morbidity. Klotho is a well-known anti-ageing factor with relevant cardioprotective actions, at least when renal dysfunction is present, but its actions are much less known when renal function is preserved. This study investigated Klotho as a biomarker and potential novel treatment of IHD-associated complications after myocardial infarction (MI) under preserved renal function.
