Metabolic rate of neonates with congenital heart disease.
Seven infants under one month of age with controlled congestive heart failure showed a mean oxygen consumption of 9-4 +/- 1-6 SD ml/kg per min, a mean respiratory quotient of 0-71 +/- 0-05 SD, and a mean metabolic rate of 63 +/- 12 SD cal/kg per 24 h. This compares with a group of infants with congenital heart disease not in heart failure with Vo2 of 6-5 +/- 1-2 SD ml/min per kg, respiratory qu...
متن کاملThe Rate of Addiction in Parents of Children with Congenital Heart Disease Compared with Healthy Children
BackgroundCongenital heart diseases (CHD) are the most common congenital anomaly in children and also the leading cause of mortality from congenital anomalies. Various factors including smoking, drinking alcohol and addiction play role in development of congenital heart diseases. This study was conducted with the aim of investigation of the prevalence of addiction in parents of children with co...
متن کاملChoriocarcinoma presenting with thyrotoxicosis.
We describe a 26-year-old man with metastatic choriocarcinoma who presented with hyperthyroidism associated with elevated β-human chorionic gonadotropin (B-HCG) and respiratory failure secondary to diffuse lung metastasis. After the first cycle of chemotherapy, the concentration of B-HCG dramatically decreased and the patient became euthyroid, allowing us to discontinue antithyroid medications....
متن کاملStudies on the Influence of Various Metabolic Uncouplers on the Biodegradation Rate of Toluene in a Biofilm Bio-Filter Reactor
Biological inhibition of air pollution has vast advantages over physicochemical methods. One of the biggest challenges faced by researchers with traditional bio-filter in controlling Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) such as Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (BTEX) is, low degradation rate (elimination capacity) and accumulation of very high biomass. The use of metabolic uncouplers...
متن کاملA Risk Prediction Index for Amiodarone-Induced Thyrotoxicosis in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease
Amiodarone therapy in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) is associated with a significant risk of amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (AIT). We developed a risk index to identify those patients being considered for amiodarone treatment who are at high risk for AIT. We reviewed the health records of adults with CHD and assessed the association between potential clinical predictors and AIT....
