A two-dimensional real-time echocardiographic study of a 51-year-old man with arterial emboli revealed an anterior wall aneurysm of the left ventricle containing mobile pedunculated masses. On the basis of this study alone, left ventricular aneurysmectomy and removal of a pedunculated thrombus were successfully performed.

Selenopeptides can be ideal dietary selenium (Se) supplements for humans. Currently, rice is not used much as a source of selenopeptides. Here, we executed the selenopeptidomics analysis of selenium-enriched rice protein hydrolysates using the full MS-dd-MS2 acquisition method and identified selenopeptides, including L{Se-Met}AK and other selenopeptides.

Aims: This study explores the clinical application of lung ultrasound scoring(LUS) combined with echocardiography in assessing right heart function in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) and those with elevated pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP), as well as the correlation between LUS and right ventricular(RV) function.

Methods: Eighty five patients who underwent MHD combined with elevated PASP, at the First Central Hospital of Baoding City were selected. Divided into three groups based on PASP, and perform echocardiography and lung ultrasound examinations.

Non-invasive continuous detection using tears or sweat as substitutes for blood samples has become an emerging method for real-time monitoring of human health. However, its development is limited by the low sample volume and low level of analytes. The simultaneous determination of multi-analytes with highly sensitive electrochemical sensing platforms has undoubtedly resulted in breakthrough innovations.
