Correction: Cardiovascular Risks Associated with Low Dose Ionizing Particle Radiation
Previous epidemiologic data demonstrate that cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality may occur decades after ionizing radiation exposure. With increased use of proton and carbon ion radiotherapy and concerns about space radiation exposures to astronauts on future long-duration exploration-type missions, the long-term effects and risks of low-dose charged particle irradiation on the CV syste...
متن کاملThe Acute Risks of Exercise in Apparently Healthy Adults and Relevance for Prevention of Cardiovascular Events.
BACKGROUND Increased physical activity (PA) is associated with improved quality of life and reductions in cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and all-cause mortality in the general population in a dose-response manner. However, PA acutely increases the risk of adverse CV event or sudden cardiac death (SCD) above levels expected at rest. We review the likelihood of adverse CV events related to exercis...
متن کاملAn economic model of long-term use of celecoxib in patients with osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND Previous evaluations of the cost-effectiveness of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor celecoxib (Celebrex, Pfizer Inc, USA) have produced conflicting results. The recent controversy over the cardiovascular (CV) risks of rofecoxib and other coxibs has renewed interest in the economic profile of celecoxib, the only coxib now available in the United States. The objective of our stu...
متن کاملAdverse Drug Reactions in the Post Coronary Care Unit Inpatients of a Teaching Hospital
The monitoring and reporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in hospitals aims to identify and quantify the risks associated with the use of drugs. The present study was performed to characterize the rate and the pattern of ADRs, due to cardiovascular drugs and anticoagulants, in a tertiary care teaching hospital. For this purpose, all the patients treated with cardiovascular drugs and anticoa...
