A novel uORF regulates folliculin to promote cell growth and lysosomal biogenesis during cardiac stress by Maja Bencun, Laura Spreyer, Etienne Boileau, Jessica Eschenbach, Norbert Frey, Christoph Dieterich, Mirko Völkers

“…These changes occur due to an acute or chronic stress on the heart and involve a complex interplay of hemodynamic, neurohormonal and molecular factors. As a critical regulator of cell growth, protein synthesis and autophagy mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is an important mediator of pathological cardiac remodeling. …”

Vascular Remodeling in Experimental Hypertension by Norma R. Risler, Montserrat C. Cruzado, Roberto M. Miatello

“…The basic hemodynamic abnormality in hypertension is an increased peripheral resistance that is due mainly to a decreased vascular lumen derived from structural changes in the small arteries wall, named (as a whole) vascular remodeling. …”

Acute and Fatal Isoniazid-Induced Hepatotoxicity: A Case Report and Review of the Literature by Wissam K. Kabbara, Aline T. Sarkis, Paola G. Saroufim

“…After discharge, the patient was readmitted and suffered from severe coagulopathy, metabolic acidosis, acute kidney injury, hepatic encephalopathy, and cardiorespiratory arrest necessitating two rounds of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Despite maximal hemodynamic support, the patient did not survive. A review of the literature, from several European countries and the United States of America, revealed a low incidence of mortality due to isoniazid-induced hepatotoxicity when used as a single agent for latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. …”

Effect of Arginine Vasopressin on Intraoperative Hypotension Caused by Oral Administration of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid by Gen Owada, Hideo Nishizawa, Yuki Matoyama, Eri Watanabe, Keigo Mitsuda, Naoki Kaneko, Yasuhiro Kimura, Taikan Nanao, Junichi Fujimoto

“…However, after starting a continuous administration of AVP, the systolic blood pressure increased, and the hemodynamic parameters remained stable during the remainder of the operation. 5-ALA administration may lower blood pressure by inducing nitric oxide production, and AVP inhibits inducible nitric oxide synthase messenger RNA expression and interleukin-1β-stimulated nitric oxide production. …”

Massive Acetaminophen Overdose Treated Successfully with N-Acetylcysteine, Fomepizole, and Hemodialysis by Michael H. Chiu, Natalia Jaworska, Nicholas L. Li, Mark Yarema

“…The patient had complete clearance of acetaminophen by 32 hours after presentation and normalization of her acid base and hemodynamic status without any organ failure. This case highlights the potential benefit of a triple strategy of NAC, fomepizole, and early hemodialysis in massive acetaminophen overdose, potentially sparing complications of prolonged intubation and ICU hospitalization.…”
