We read with interest the report by Malik et al. [1] that suggested that a continuum probably exists between endoboth atorvastatin and fenofibrate equally improved endothelial activation (from early exposure to risk factors, such thelium-dependent arterial vasoreactivity in patients with as smoking), endothelial dysfunction (resulting in thromcombined hyperlipidaemia. Interestingly, a recent st...

Background Haemodynamic response to adenosine infusion during CMR stress perfusion continues to be used as surrogate to determine adequacy of hyperaemia in clinical setting. Our aim was to determine the proportion of patients who achieve pre-specified adequate response to adenosine (increase in heart rate (HR) by ≥ 10 beats or a drop in systolic blood pressure (SBP) by 10mm Hg from baseline rea...

OBSCURE though its ultimate cause may be, awareness of the widespread nature of the changes throughout the body prompts one to be on the lookout for unusual clinical signs in glandular fever. There have been no reports of its ocular manifestations in Great Britain since hyperaemia of the discs was first described by Clemens (1907). The most authoritative and recent account is that of Tanner (19...

A condition evidenced by retarded growth of wool with alteration of the yolk into a yellow, sticky, wax-like substance was investigated. The condition was associated with hyperaemia and cellular infiltration into the dermis in the affected areas. Three bacterial species, viz. Enterobacter aerogenes, E. agglomerans and Hafnia alvei, which could grow on the water-extractable component of wool-yol...
