JUNIPER PUBLISHERS - OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY   Keywords Keywords: Cardiology; Heart disease; Diagnostic systems Introduction We can see that heart is usually studied using many diagnostic strategies and under different Mechanism as functions, electric activity, receptorial, imaging, instrumental test, genetic profile, exercise tests, biopsy and so on. But what we can see is that until today in not possible to prevent some unexpected death. So we can think that perhaps we need more diagnostic test to right consider this aspect. Can we use innovative methods to introduce more useful systems? In ischemic condition some test can help to detect the residual heart capacity but can we test in the same way the heart biochemical-metabolic status or pharmacological profile? In a recent case we have see that in a transplant heart procedure was used an organ by a patient death Due to cerebral damage after a hear...

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS - OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY   Abstract Background: There are great discrepancies in the quality and level of care offered to patients with Down's syndrome and a structural heart defect. While this is well recognized, there are few comparative data in the current era. Aim: To compare the level of care offered, and the outcome of three cohorts of children with Down's syndrome and congenital heart disease, from three tertiary referral centers. Methods: A continuous case series of patients referred to each of the tertiary referral centers was followed up to evaluate the treatment and outcome. Results: Early diagnosis and routine early repair of the heart defect with good outcome is the norm in the developed world. This contrasts with late presentation with congestive heart failure and failure to thrive, lack of early and appropriate therapy, a high rate of loss of follow- up, and a low rate of timely ...

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY Introduction Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a multisystem disorder diagnosed by the presence of hypereosinophilia (HE) defined as an absolute eosinophil count (AEC) >1.5x109/L (or >1500cells/microL) and multi organ involvement attributable to HE. Myocardial dysfunction is a frequent finding and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HES. The diagnosis of hypereosinophilic heart disease (EHD) is made in the setting of hypereosinophilia and characteristic clinical features and imaging findings of damage to the heart. We describe those clinical features in this case of HES with HHD with review of literature. Case Report A 63 year old male with no known past medical history was transferred to our hospital for hypotension, abnormal EKG and elevated troponin. The patient described nonspecific symptoms of cough, runny nose, malaise, muscle aches, nausea, diarrhea and l...

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY Abstract Herbal formula serves the purpose of alternative or combinatorial treatment as safe, cheap and effective complementary and alternative medicine with no side effect. Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) and Cardiovascular disease (CVD) are major disorders of dyslipidemia or elevated lipids in blood to result with atherosclerosis and cardiac arrest. Biochemical mechanistic basis of changes in cardiovascular metabolites and regulation is described. New non-invasive herbal testing method is described based on in vivo magnetic Resonance Imaging and ex vivo Magnetic Resonance Microscopy – histology correlation. A scheme of herbal testing method is presented based on herbal induced change in physical symptoms, clinical diagnosis, experimental evaluation of herbal effects on heart biochemical and physiological functions. Herbal foods and herbal preparations are approved to benefit public for ...
