    Abstract A 40-year-old non-diabetic, non-hypertensive male patient presented with complaints of dyspnea of a few days duration and coronavirus -19 disease (COVID) pneumonia. The electrocardiography (ECG) revealed sinus tachycardia with T inversion in V1 only. The ECG revealed a left ventricular aneurysm with a clot and severe left ventricular dysfunction. He had deep vein thrombosis involving the left lower leg. The cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left ventricular posterodorsal aneurysm with a large clot. Computed tomography angiography revealed normal coronaries and no evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortitis. The d-dimer was raised. A brachial artery Doppler revealed severe impairment of flow-mediated dilatation, suggesting endothelial dysfunction. He was stabilized with anti-platelets and anticoagulants, and diuretics.

    Abstract Background: Cardiovascular involvement is a significant cause of death in COVID pneumonia. Early electrocardiographic changes may predict cardiovascular involvement and predict mortality in COVID pneumonia patients.
    Methods: A total of 250 consecutive patients with COVID-19 pneumonia admitted to the emergency were studied for electrocardiographic abnormalities and their relation to mortality.
    Results: Most patients required supplemental oxygen to maintain optimal saturation. A total of 72% showed ECG abnormalities, and the overall cohort had a mortality of 50%. New-onset atrial fibrillation, left bundle branch block or right bundle branch pattern, and ventricular premature complexes were associated with high mortality. Sinus tachycardia and atrial fibrillation were the most common arrhythmia and were significantly associated with mortality.
    Conclusions: New-onset atrial fibrillation, intraventricular conduction defects, and sinus tachycardia are associated with increased mortality in COVID pneumonia patients.

    Abstract A twelve-year-old girl with classical features of Takayasu arteritis presented with scalp ulceration and osteomyelitis. Her computed tomography (CT) of the head revealed an extensive ulcerated lesion over the left high parietal region with lytic destruction of the outer and inner tables of the skull. Because of full-thickness calvarial bone involvement, chronic osteomyelitis, and ulcerated scalp lesion, she underwent debridement of involved bone along with the margin of normal skin. During surgery, underlying dura was found to be not involved, and a transposition flap was done for reconstruction. Histopathology did not reveal any evidence of bacterial infection or granulomas. Sterile osteomyelitis of the skull associated with alopecia and scalp necrosis has not been reported with typical Takayasu disease. Family physicians should be vigilant to keep this as a differential diagnosis in nonhealing osteomyelitis, not responding to antibiotics, or showing any evidence of infection.

    Abstract Cannabis is one of the most common illicit drugs and has been implicated with various complications which include stroke, acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmia and limb arteritis. We are reporting a case of a young man, who is a recreational cannabis smoker along with tobacco, who developed exertional progressive breathlessness for the last 4 months, mild cough for 2 months and acute left-sided hemiparesis along with ipsilateral facial palsy for 1 day that was attributed to an acute right middle cerebral artery territory infarct. There was also gangrene in his left forearm as a result of left radial artery thrombosis. Non-ischaemic-dilated cardiomyopathy was found in contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI and he was managed in the line of decompensated heart failure; the right-hand gangrene was later amputated in the subsequent follow-ups. Hence, cannabis can lead to cardiomyopathy and resulting cardioembolism. The mainstay of management remains supportive and avoidance of the offending agent. Social education is the need of the hour.

    Abstract Background: Cardiac injury is associated with high mortality in patients with COVID-19 infection. Electrocardiographic changes can give clues to the underlying cardiovascular abnormalities. Raised inflammatory markers like raised interleukin-6 (IL-6) are associated with arrhythmia, heart failure, and coronary artery disease. However, past studies have not highlighted the electrocardiographic abnormalities in patients with COVID-19 infection with raised IL- 6 levels. This study compared the electrocardiogram (ECG) changes in COVID-19 patients with high and normal IL-6 levels. Methods: A retrospective analysis of ECG of 306 patients with COVID-19 infection was done, out of which 250 patients had normal IL- 6 levels, whereas 56 patients had raised IL-6 levels. IL-6 levels were measured in all the patients. Detailed clinicodemographic profile of all the serial COVID-19 patients admitted with moderate to severe COVID-19 pneumonia was noted from the hospital record section. Electrocardiographic findings and biochemical parameters of all the patients were noted. Results: Out of 56 patients with raised IL-6 levels, 41 (73.2%) patients had ECG abnormalities compared to 177 (70.8%) patients with normal IL-6 levels. This difference was not statistically significant. However, ECG abnormality such as sinus tachycardia was significantly more common in patients with raised IL-6 levels than those with normal levels. Among patients with raised IL-6 levels who were discharged, 5 (16.6%) had sinus tachycardia, 2 (6.6%) had ST/T wave changes as compared to 15 (57.6%), and 10 (38.4%) who had tachycardia and ST/T wave change respectably succumbed to death. This difference was statistically significant. Conclusions: Sinus tachycardia followed by atrial fibrillation and right bundle branch block are common ECG changes in patients with COVID-19 infection with raised IL-6. The possible association of cardiac injury in patients with COVID-19 infection with coexisting raised IL-6 levels should be explored further.
