TL;DR: The role of congestion detection methods at key stages of patient care: pre-admission, admission to the emergency department, in-hospital management, and lastly, discharge and continued monitoring in the community are described.

TL;DR: Specific skin manifestations of IE are associated with a higher risk of complications and should alert physicians to examine for extracardiac complications, notably with cerebral imaging.

TL;DR: The role of β-adrenergic preconditioning (β-PC) to attenuate myocardial dysfunction after an ischemia/reperfusion injury is investigated using an isolated nonworking rat heart model.

TL;DR: On a Langendorff-type model of rat heart, 10−5 and 10−4 M amifostine alone induced a coronary dilation and, when associated with a cardiotoxic concentration of 2.5 × 10–5–10−5’M doxorubicin, 10–4–10–4”M am ifostine displayed a cardioprotective effect.

TL;DR: Doppler-echocardiography may be both sensitive and specific in emergency conditions and help the decision making for further invasive investigations in suspected pulmonary embolism, the study shows.
