چکیده
We report the enhanced augmentation of cardiac output in a 60-year-old man who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stent implantation for a large anteroseptal ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. Because of persistent systemic hypotension during the procedure, a 50cc, 8-Fr Mega intra-aortic balloon was inserted, used for 24 hours, and removed without complications. The use of this new balloon — with larger blood volume displacement but smaller caliber at the insertion site — significantly increased cardiac output in 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 assist modes, by more than 15%, 9%, and 4%, respectively. These findings exceed the average augmentations reported for smaller-volume balloon catheters. Disclosure: The authors have received consultation fees from Maquet. This article received double-blind peer review from members of the Cath Lab Digest editorial board. BoiangiuReprintCLDJune2010-BM:**CLD Reprint Template.qxd 6/22/10 9:39 AM Page 1

A Genre Analysis of Reprint Request E-mails Written by EFL and Physics Professionals
The present study aimed to analyze reprint request e-mail messages written by postgraduates (MA students) of two fields of study, namely Physics and EFL, to realize the differences and similarities between the two email types. To investigate the purpose of the study, a sample of 100 e-mail messages, 50 Physics and 50 EFL, were analyzed according to Swales’ (1990) model for reprint requests and ...
متن کاملAutologous Bone Marrow Stem Cells in the Treatment of Chronic Liver Disease
Chronic liver disease (CLD) is increasing worldwide yet there has been no major advance in effective therapies for almost five decades. There is mounting evidence that adult haematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are capable of differentiating into many types of tissue, including skeletal and cardiac muscle, neuronal cells, pneumocytes and hepatocytes. These recent advances in regenerative medicine ha...
متن کاملAdrenal and liver in normal and cld/cld mice synthesize and secrete hepatic lipase, but the lipase is inactive in cld/cld mice.
Combined lipase deficiency (cld) is a recessive mutation in mice that causes a severe lack of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) activities, hyperlipemia, and death within 3 days after birth. Earlier studies showed that inactive LPL and HL were synthesized by cld/cld tissues and that LPL synthesized by cld/cld brown adipocytes was retained in their ER. We report here a study of HL...
