To the Editor I read with great interest the study by Blumstein et al. [1], published online ahead of print on 21 July 2015 in the Journal, about capture myopathy (CM) and its clinical implications for human Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), which reminded me of the seminal work done by Ueyama et al. [2] with their rat immobilization animal model of TTS. The capacity of the brain to injure the heart is...
متن کاملThe evolution of capture myopathy in hooved mammals: a model for human stress cardiomyopathy?
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Capture myopathy (CM) syndromes in wildlife may be a model for human stress cardiomyopathy, including Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Emotional stress or grief may trigger heart attack-like symptoms, and occasionally, sudden death in some humans. Similarly, wildlife exposed to predatory stresses, chase, or capture occasionally results in sudden death. To better understand th...
متن کاملNon-triggered Takotsubo-syndrome in metabolic myopathy.
Takotsubo-syndrome (TTS) is characterized by sudden onset chest-pain and dyspnea, electrocardiographic changes resembling acute coronary syndrome, minimal elevation of cardiac enzyme levels and transient wall-motion abnormalities in the absence of coronary artery obstruction [1]. Although TTS occurs frequently after emotional or physical stress, non-triggered TTS, is reported in 10–66% of the c...

TTS and ACS share many clinical features on admission, and an estimated 1% to 2% of all patients with suspected ACS are finally diagnosed ...
متن کاملStudyCapture myopathy in red deer and wild goat
This syndrome is a shock-like hyper metabolic myopathy triggered in susceptible animals by stress. Capture myopathy (C.M.) is a commonly occurring condition in mammals following trapping and transportation. In this case 12 to 24 hours after transportation of red deer (Cevus elaphus) and wild goats (Capra ibex) clinical signs such as: muscular tremor, ataxia, recumbency, hyperthermia, tachyca...
