We report a case of COVID-19 in an adult single-ventricle patient post-Fontan-to our knowledge, the first report in this population documenting the use of the latest management recommendations for this novel disease. Additionally, this patient had significant pre-existing ventricular dysfunction, valvular disease, and comorbidities including HIV.…[Read more]

In addition to standard cardiac imaging techniques such as transthoracic echocardiography, other modalities including computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging have emerged as useful adjuncts in select patients with COVID-19 infection, particularly those with suspected ischemic and nonischemic myocardial injury. Data have also…[Read more]

1mmHg (FCBT, n = 62) and - 3.5mmHg (FCBT + BIM, n = 15), respectively (both P < 0.0001). Patients who achieved target IOP reduction with FCBT did so in 1month (median). VF progression rates were 0.17%/year (FCBT, P = 0.8367) and - 0.08%/year (FCBT + BIM, P = 0.9410). Ocular treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 42.5% (FCBT) and 71.0%…[Read more]

Biooxidation of gold-bearing refractory mineral ores such as arsenopyrite (FeAsS) in stirred tanks produces solutions containing highly toxic arsenic concentrations. In this study, ferrous iron and inorganic sulfur-oxidizing Acidithiobacillus strain IBUN Ppt12 most similar to Acidithiobacillus ferrianus and inorganic sulfur compound oxidizing…[Read more]
