Torsade de Pointes and Persistent QTc Prolongation after Intravenous Amiodarone
We report a case of torsade de pointes after intravenous amiodarone and concurrent hypokalemia. Despite treatment cessation and correction of electrolyte abnormalities, excessive QTc prolongation was noted, which persisted for 14 days. This prolonged course for QTc normalization may be attributed to the high rate of amiodarone loading and concurrent electrolyte disturbances coupled with possibl...
متن کاملPersistent γ-herpesvirus Infections
The human ␥-herpesviruses, EBV (or HHV-4) and Ka-posi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV or HHV-8) are oncogenic viruses that induce a readily controlled lytic infection followed by the establishment of lifelong latency. This quiescent state is maintained by the host immune system. In most cases the persistent infection is asymptomatic or accompanied by benign cellular proliferations. Howev...
متن کاملEstimating DSGE models with persistent dynamics
Recent literature points out that key variables such as aggregate productivity and ination display long memory dynamics. We study the implications of this high degree of persistence on the estimation of Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models. We rst show that long memory data can produce substantial bias in the deep parameter estimates when a standard Kalman Filter-MLE procedure...
متن کاملUndifferentiated arthritis: predictive factors of persistent arthritis and treatment decisions
A number of patients with inflammatory arthritis due to inadequate clinical or laboratory data do not fulfill diagnostic criteria for a clinical disease categories. These patients with initial diagnosis of undifferentiated arthritis (UA) may remit or progress to a definite well- defined condition such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or remain as UA with persistence of inflammatory arthritis. The m...
متن کاملA framework for continuously estimating persistent and intermittent failure probabilities
Almost all previous work on model-based diagnosis has focussed on persistent faults where the prior probability of component failure is provided by the manufacturer or estimated from fleet-wide service records. However, some of the most difficult to diagnose faults are intermittent. It is very difficult to isolate intermittent faults which occur with low frequency but yet at high enough frequen...
