Ethnobotany, Ethnopharmacology and Drug Discovery

     This manuscript is a review of a number of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology texts and papers in order to arrive at current understanding and scope of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology. It includes either a brief definition of both fields and presenting some examples on them. Also it has a glimpse on the geographical coverage of research works throughout the world, important issue of prope...

Pacing in heart failure: patient and pacing mode selection.

Pharmacological therapy in the management of heart failure has been proven and is well established. In the last decade ACE inhibitors, betablockers, spironolactone and digoxin have contributed to a reduction in mortality of nearly 50%, a reduced frequency of hospital admissions and improvement in quality of life. However, congestive heart failure still endures a high overall annual mortality of...

Reversal of Pacing-Induced Cardiomyopathy by Normal QRS Axis Pacing

Right ventricular apical pacing has been a commonly used method for placement of permanent pacemaker, but it is known to be associated with ventricular dyssynchrony and may lead to heart failure. Septal pacing could be an alternative method to improve this complication but the results have been conflicting; hence, other strategies are needed. This case is about a patient with pacing-induced car...
