  Self-reported health (SRH) is considered to be a valuable source of data on various aspects of general health. In fact, it is one of the most widely used indicators of health status in survey research, and is recommended by the World Health Organization. SRH can be influenced by individual determina

  Long QT syndrome (LQTS), a rare inheritable arrhythmia first described by Romano and Ward et al. in the 1960s, is characterized by the prolongation of the QT interval on surface ECGs and an increased risk of potentially fatal ventricular arrhythmias, especially torsade de pointes . In 1995, after ye

  We also looked at antithrombotic therapy for each CHADS2 score in each country. For patients with CHADS2 score of 0 (Fig. 3), approximately 80% of the physicians used antiplatelet agents in 6 of the countries—Australia, China, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. A total of 59% of the physicians

  The L-type calcium channel (LTCC) in heart consists of 4 subunits: α1, β2, α2, and δ [47], encoded by CACNA1C, CACNB2, and CACNA2D, respectively, with the α2 and δ subunits encoded by the gene CANA2D. In 2007, Antzelevitch et al. [48] reported 2 CACNA1C mutations and a CACNB2 mutation from a genot

  A 52-year-old male with known dextrocardia and CCTGA presented with a 2-month history of recurrent presyncope and effort intolerance. His examination revealed a resting pulse rate of 52beats/min (bpm) and a blood pressure of 130/80mmHg. The apex beat and heart sounds were appreciated on the right si

  The final variant deals with a patient who has a poor prognosis due to visceral metastases and who suffers from a single site of painful bone disease. The purpose of the case was to evaluate the panel\'s views of supportive care with analgesic medications plus or minus EBRT. The group did recommend

  Long marginalised as a disorder confined to specific racial groups, sickle-cell disease is now assuming its rightful place as a major global public health problem. Most patients in the Americas, the Caribbean, and much of Europe have been of one racial group, which led to the common misconception th

  The ETV6-ABL1 fusion has been reported as a poor prognostic factor when found in acute leukemia (AML and ALL) and MDS. The prognostic significance of an ETV6/ABL1 chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm is less clear due to the paucity of cases and the lack of controlled clinical trials [5]. There is a

  Good news from the Americas illuminated the global health scene in September. As the Ministers of Health from the western hemisphere gathered in Washington, DC, USA, for PAHO\'s 55th Directing Council, a series of announcements confirmed the New World\'s role as a pioneer of sorts in disease prevent

  The width of the QRS is often used to ascertain the distance of the site of origin from the conduction system. In the absence of antiarrhythmics, which result in conduction slowing, VTs with narrow QRS are located closer to the purkinje system or septum. VTs originating from the epicardium have been

  Finally, MM patients have accelerated bone loss when compared to age-matched controls. Bone mineral density is decreased in patients with MM as well as in patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) [19,20], a clinically benign condition defined by a low level of monoclon

  Certainly, dynamic interactions between DTCs and stromal sphingosine kinase within the bone microenvironment disrupt bone homeostasis, which is normally tightly controlled, to fuel metastatic progression [18] (Table 1). For example, it is well established that osteolytic breast cancer DTC-derived f
