[ 1 ] - Atrial and Ventricular Electrocardiographic Dromotropic Disturbances in Down Syndrome Patients with Structurally Normal Heart: A Cross-Sectional Study

Background: We designed a cross-sectional study to determine electrocardiographic disorders in Down syndrome patients with congenitally normal hearts in a bid to predict fatal cardiac arrhythmia in the future. Materials and Methods: We investigated 60 children with DS without congenital abnormal hearts. Sixty healthy juveniles were also included in the study as a control group. Physical examina...

[ 2 ] - Effect of Average Annual Mean Serum Ferritin Levels on QTc Interval and QTc Dispersion in Beta-Thalassemia Major

  Background There is evidence indicating impaired cardiomyocytic contractility, delayed electrical conduction and increased electrophysiological heterogeneities due to iron toxicity in beta-thalassemia major patients. In the present study, we compared the electrocardiographic and echocardiographic features of beta-thalassemia major patients with a healthy control group. Materials and Methods ...

[ 3 ] - Neonatal Pneumomediastinum, Spinnaker-Sail Sign: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Background: Pneumomediastinum (PM) occurring in approximately 0.1% of neonates is an asymptomatic accumulation of free air in the mediastinum. In this paper, we report on a preterm newborn experiencing a significant spontaneous pneumomediastinum subsequent to an uneventful vaginal delivery in the absence of resuscitation maneuvers. Case presentation:A-2560 g-ma...

[ 4 ] - Node-First Kawasaki Disease Presented with Marked Pancarditis: a Case Report

Kawasaki disease is an acute inflammatory disorder of medium-sized arteries that predominantly affects cardiac coronary arteries and children under the age of 5 years. Cardiac involvement usually happens later than 10 days after the onset of illness. Most of cardiac complications are coronary artery abnormalities (ectasia or aneurysms) and subclinical myocarditis. Clinical myocarditis (symptoma...

[ 5 ] - Type 2 diabetes heritability in the Tehran families: Tehran cardiometabolic genetic study

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes, as a complex disorder, is one of the most prevalent endocrine disorders.  Importantly, the extent of familial aggregation and heritability in Iran is unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine type 2 diabetes heritability in the Tehran families. Materials and Methods: The current research comprises 1691 diabetic and 12050 non-diabetic individuals over ...
