ECG Blog #435 — Did Cath Show Acute Ischemia?

Ken Grauer, MD

That said — the ECG in Figure-1 should prompt the following considerations: The symmetric chest lead T wave inversion in ECG #1 could be a sign of coronary disease, potentially with acute ischemia. MY Hunch: Before going further — We need to consider the possibility of acute PE ( P ulmonary E mbolism )!

Abstract TP356: Nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of Sirt1 and Sirt2 during cerebral ischemia

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP356-ATP356, February 1, 2025. Background and Rationale:Acute hyperglycemia caused by cerebral ischemia occurs when there is a lack of oxygen, resulting in anaerobic glycolysis. We demonstrated that ischemia accelerates aging-like processes in the brain.
