    Abstract Cardiac hormones act on the regulation of blood pressure (BP) and cardiovascular homeostasis. These hormones include atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP, BNP) and activate natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA), which enhance natriuresis, diuresis, and vasorelaxation. In this study, we established the ANP-dependent homologous downregulation of NPRA using human embryonic kidney-293 (HEK-293) cells expressing recombinant receptor and MA-10 cells harboring native endogenous NPRA. The prolonged pretreatment of cells with ANP caused a time- and dose-dependent decrease in

    Abstract Background: Mitral stenosis may present with decompensated heart failure during pregnancy. Many patients do have advanced sub valve disease and present late with decompensated state. The outcomes of balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) in such advanced sub valve disease with severe heart failure in pregnancy has not been specifically studied till now.
    Methods: A descriptive study looking at the immediate and long-term outcomes of pregnant patients with MS who presented with severe heart failure and sub valve disease who had undergone BMV.
    Results: Ninety-six patients were studied. The mean gestational age was 23.4 ± 10.9 weeks .Mean SpO2 was 89% at admission,17% were in cardiogenic shock and 33.33 were on mechanical ventilation. The mean Wilkin's score was 9.71 ± 2.1 and sub valve score was 3.3 ± 0.12. BMV was successful in 77 (80.2%) patients and failed in 19. In 5.2% cases, acute severe MR occurred. There were 11 maternal deaths (six in failed and five in success group). A successful obstetric outcome was seen in 71 patients in success (92%) and 11/19 (57%) in failed (P < 0.001). The obstetric outcomes were better in success versus failure group. Anova post hoc analysis showed sustained gradient reductions at 1 and 5 year follow-up (P = 0.03) in success group.
    Conclusions: BMV offers substantial improvement in clinical outcomes among pregnant patients with MS and heart failure even with severe sub valve disease. The morality rate among failed was high at 31%. The obstetric outcomes were poor after a failed BMV. Outcomes following balloon mitral valvuloplasty in pregnant females with mitral stenosis and significant sub valve disease with severe decompensated heart failure.

    Abstract We describe a report of an elderly lady who was hospitalized with progressive worsening of breathlessness and fatigue of one month's duration. Clinical evaluation of the patient revealed hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension without left heart failure, and bilateral gluteal calcinosis cutis. Initially, CREST (calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, esophageal dysmotility, sclerodactyly, and telangiectasia) syndrome was considered in view of the telangiectasia and calcinosis cutis, but a strong autosomal inheritance pattern and endoscopies (nasal and upper gastrointestinal) favored a diagnosis of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with rare associations.

    Abstract Automaticity has been described in Mahaim pathways, both spontaneously and during radiofrequency ablation. We describe an unusual case of automatic rhythm from a Mahaim pathway presenting as parasystole. The parasystolic beats were also found to initiate tachycardia, resulting in initial presentation with incessant tachycardia and tachycardia induced cardiomyopathy.

    Abstract We describe a 74-year-old man with purpura fulminans and altered sensorium following an acute febrile illness. Intensive sepsis management was to no avail, until institution of doxycycline therapy following confirmation of scrub typhus. Empirical doxycycline needs to be considered in endemic areas for patients presenting with purpura fulminans.

    Abstract Seckel syndrome is an uncommon form of microcephalic dwarfism. The authors report a young boy with Seckel syndrome who presented with severe sinus bradycardia with symptoms of syncope and presyncope. Implantation of a permanent pacemaker was necessary in view of the severe symptoms. Although uncommon, cardiac abnormalities have been rarely reported in Seckel syndrome. This is the one of the few reports of rhythm abnormalities in this condition.

    Abstract Trans-anethole (TA), a terpenoid and a principle constituent of many essential oils from medicinal plants possess hypoglycemic and antioxidant activities. This study was undertaken to explore beneficial effects of TA on key enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 2 diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced in male albino Wistar rats by intraperitoneal administration of STZ (40 mg/kg BW). TA was administered to diabetic rats at a dose of 20, 40 and 80 mg/kg BW for 45 days. However, the dose at 80 mg/kg BW, resulted in a significant reduction in the levels of plasma glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and increase in the levels of insulin and haemoglobin (Hb). Upon administration of TA, the altered levels of liver glycolytic enzyme (hexokinase), hepatic shunt enzyme (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) and gluconeogenic enzymes (glucose-6-phosphatase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase) in the liver and kidney of diabetic rats significantly reverted to near normal levels. In addition to this, TA also improved the hepatic and muscle glycogen content in diabetic rats. The histological studies showed the ameliorative effect of TA on the β-cells of pancreas in diabetic rats. The results were compared with glibenclamide, a standard oral hypoglycemic drug. These encouraging findings suggest that TA may be used as a propitious bioactive compound in the development of therapeutic agents against type 2 diabetes mellitus.
