How common is myocardial wall motion defects in the absence of ischemia or infarction ? by Dr. Sangareddi V. Medical Doctor

Posted Mon 14 Dec 2009 6:30am Myocardial wall motion defects are sine qua non of coronary artery disease. This occurs as regional wall motion defects following myocardial infarction or during unstable angina.Myocardium is divided into 16 segments for this purpose. The wall motion defect occurs in the respective segments , depending upon the compromised coronary arteria ... Read on »

In my experience, the reading is a useful adjunct but it sometimes "overcalls" ST elevation MIs. It is great, though, in picking up subtle pacemaker spikes and calculating QTc intervals. In this publicatio ... Read on »

But Robbins says that the thr ... Read on »

SIRT2 Inhibitors as Novel Therapeutics for Myocardial Infarction and Ischemic Stroke and to Prevent Necrosis by nih.gov Posted Tue 22 Jan 2013 7:00pm Description of Invention: Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) inhibitors to reduce necrosis and, thereby, as novel therapeutics to treat ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction.
