Methadone and Torsade De Pointes in the Therapeutic Range
Methadone, a long-acting opioid agonist, binds to and occupies mu-opioid receptors, preventing withdrawal symptoms for 24 hours or longer, reduces craving for opioids, and, by maintaining high levels of opioid tolerance, reduces the euphoric effects of subsequent illicit opioid use. As a controlled substance with potential for abuse, methadone use is regulated in the US and other countries.
Amyloid beta precursor protein: forgotten facts of the most studied protein in the 21st Century*
The amyloid precursor protein (APP) is mainly known for being the precursor of the ß-amyloid peptide, which accumulates in plaques found in the brain of Alzheimer’s disease patients. Expression in different tissues and the degree of sequence identity among mammals indicate an essential and non-tissue specific physiological function.
Pulmonic Valve Endocarditis Complicating Streptococcus pneumoniae Community- Acquired Pneumonia
Infective endocarditis is most often seen affecting the left side of the heart, with the pulmonary valve being the least frequently involved
valve. The most common organisms responsible for infective endocarditis are Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus viridans. Here
we report a rare case of pulmonary valve endocarditis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae, a rare pathogen for this setting. The clinical
features, presentation, and review of the literature are discussed.
