Comparison of the clinical and laboratory tests with the findings of post-mortem examination of 82 hearts of patients who had died in different periods after the onset of the disease allowed the authors to distinguish three periods in the clinical course of myocardial infarction: necrotic, inflammatory and adaptational. Fever, leukocytosis, the time course of MB CPK activity, and the results of polyelectrode ECG are reliable indicators of the duration of the necrotic period. The content of the protein-carbohydrate complexes in the blood adequately reflect the exudative-proliferative phase, while the content of collagen metabolites in blood and urine reflect the collagenization phase of the inflammatory period. These tests allow the physical activity of each patient to be individualized under objective control over the rate of healing of the myocardial infarct. Most patients become fully adapted to life with a reduced mass of contractile myocardium three months after the onset of the disease.

Background: Protein-truncating mutations in the titin gene are associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation. However, little is known about the underlying pathophysiology.

Methods: We identified a heterozygous titin truncating variant (TTNtv) in a patient with unexplained early onset atrial fibrillation and normal ventricular function.

Exploring the microbiome-gut-testis axis in testicular germ cell tumors.

Front Cell Infect Microbiol

The microbiome-gut-testis axis has emerged as a significant area of interest in understanding testicular cancer, particularly testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), which represent the most common malignancy in young men. The interplay between the gut and testicular microbiomes is hypothesized to influence tumorigenesis and reproductive health, underscoring the complex role of microbial ecosystems in disease pathology. The microbiome-gut-testis axis encompasses complex interactions between the gut microbiome, systemic immune modulation, and the local microenvironment of the testis.

The gut barrier encompasses several interactive, physical, and functional components, such as the gut microbiota, the mucus layer, the epithelial layer and the gut mucosal immunity. All these contribute to homeostasis in a well-regulated manner. Nevertheless, this frail balance might be disrupted for instance by westernized dietary habits, infections, pollution or exposure to antibiotics, thus diminishing protective immunity and leading to the onset of chronic diseases.

Using integrative bioinformatics approaches and machine-learning strategies to identify potential signatures for atrial fibrillation.

Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc

February 2025

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui, 230001, China.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia and seriously affects human health. Key targets of AF bioinformatics analysis can help to better understand the pathogenesis of AF and develop therapeutic targets. The left atrial appendage tissue of 20 patients with AF and 10 patients with sinus rhythm were collected for sequencing, and the expression data of the atrial tissue were obtained.
