Recognition and treatment of freezing and nonfreezing cold injuries.
This article reviews recent medical literature to provide an overview of the recognition and treatment of the two broad categories of cold injuries, freezing and nonfreezing. Frostbite, a freezing cold injury, is treated traditionally with rapid rewarming followed by tissue care and surgical debridement of necrotic tissue. Recently, newer therapies aimed at prevention of tissue necrosis have shown improved outcomes compared with more traditional therapies. These newer treatment regimens for frostbite include the use of various drugs such as ibuprofen, aspirin, warfarin, tissue plasminogen activator, and prostacyclin. The u...

Cardiovascular considerations in middle-aged athletes at risk for coronary artery disease.
This article reviews exercise-related risks for sudden death and the performance of a global cardiovascular risk assessment. The need for additional preexercise risk stratification with electrocardiogram, graded exercise testing, or echocardiography is outlined. In addition, the optimum choice of medications for hypertension or dyslipidemia treatment and the effects of these medications and aspirin on endurance exercise are reviewed.

Joint position statement on persistent foramen ovale (PFO) and diving. South Pacific Underwater Medicine Society (SPUMS) and the United Kingdom Sports Diving Medical Committee (UKSDMC).
Authors: Smart D, Mitchell S, Wilmshurst P, Turner M, Banham N Abstract This consensus statement is the result of a workshop at the SPUMS Annual Scientific Meeting 2014 with representatives of the UK Sports Diving Medical Committee (UKSDMC) present, and subsequent discussions including the entire UKSDMC. Right-to-left shunt across a persistent or patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a risk factor for some types of decompression illness. It was agreed that routine screening for PFO is not currently justifiable, but certain high risk sub-groups can be identified. Divers with a history of cerebral, spinal, inner-ear or cu...

The Prevalence of Symptomatic Deep Venous Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Conclusion: The incidence of VTE after ACL reconstruction in this large population was low. Increased odds of VTE was identified in patients aged ≥35 years with a history of nicotine use, anticoagulant use, concomitant HTO, or concomitant PCL reconstruction. Controlled studies are necessary to determine the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis and to develop evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to minimize VTE after ACL reconstruction.

Aspirin Use to Reduce the Risk of Sports-Related Cardiac Arrest in High-Risk Athletes
I respectfully wish to challenge the conclusion by Rao et al that the jury is still out on the potential adverse cardiovascular consequences of endurance exercise.1,2 The finding in a 10-year registry of US road races that marathon running is a significant risk factor for cardiac arrest in middle-aged males is the most robust evidence to date that vigorous exercise can trigger such events.3,4 Pre-mature cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, as also reported in US ironman triathletes,5 mandates an evidence-based response to address this paradoxical complication of endurance sports participation.

Drug-related problems identification in general internal medicine: The impact and role of the clinical pharmacist and pharmacologist.
CONCLUSION: Pharmacotherapy expertise during medical rounds was useful and well accepted by prescribers. Because of the modest allocation of pharmacists and pharmacologists in Swiss hospitals, complementary strategies would be required. PMID: 26066400 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Emergency medicine myths and misconceptions: evaluating the evidence.
This article evaluates four commonly taught dogmatic practices in emergency medicine to determine if they are supported by the medical literature or are instead myths and misconceptions: (1) topical anaesthetics inhibit corneal healing, (2) treatment of myocardial infarction is MONA (morphine, oxygen, nitrates, aspirin), (3) children do not get sprains because their ligaments are stronger than bone, and (4) vagal manoeuvres for supraventricular tachycardia never work in adults. Medicine is changing all the time, and the best way to ensure that one is practicing medicine that is accurate, up to date and not prone to being r...

Combined Therapy with Traditional Chinese Medicine and Antiplatelet Drugs for Ischemic Heart Disease: Mechanism, Efficacy, and Safety
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2021 Oct 27;2021:9956248. doi: 10.1155/2021/9956248. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTIschemic heart disease is a significant risk factor that threatens human health, and antiplatelet drugs are routinely used to treat cases in clinical settings. Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis (PBCRBSCM) can often be combined with antiplatelet drugs to treat ischemic heart disease. PBCRBSCM can inhibit platelet adhesion, activation, and aggregation; moreover, PBCRBSCM in combination with antiplatelet drugs exerts antiplatelet effects. The mechanism is related to several...
