International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict

Though mankind has always counted its war casualties in terms of dead and wounded soldiers and civilians, destroyed cities and livelihoods, the environment has often remained the unpublicized victim of war.Water wells have been polluted, crops torched, forests cut down, soils poisoned, and animals killed to gain military advantage.

PCSK9 inhibitors are monoclonal antibodies (MABs

Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is an enzyme encoded by the PCSK9 gene in humans on chromosome

It is ubiquitously expressed in many tissues and cell types.PCSK9 binds to the receptor for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-C). In the liver, the LDL receptor (LDLR) removes LDL-C from the blood. When PCSK9 binds to the LDLR, the receptor is broken down and can no longer remove LDL-C from the blood. If PCSK9 is blocked, more LDLRs will be present on the surface of the liver and will remove more LDL-C from the blood.Therefore, blocking PCSK9 can lower blood cholesterol levels. Similar genes (orthologs) are found across many species. PCSK9 is inactive when first synthesized, because a section of peptide chains blocks their activity; proprotein convertases remove that section to activate the enzyme.

Troponin elevation in acute ischemic stroke (TRELAS

coronary calcium scoring

specks of calcium in the walls(alcium deposits ) of the coronary (heart) arteries. These specks of calcium are called calcifications (KAL-sih-fih-KA-shuns).

Chronotropic incompetence (CI),

Chronotropic incompetence (CI), broadly defined as the inability of the heart to increase its rate commensurate with increased activity or demand, is common in patients with cardiovascular disease, produces exercise intolerance which impairs quality-of-life, and is an independent predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events and overall mortality.

Chronotropic incompetence

Chronotropic incompetence

The inability to achieve 85% of the maximum predicted heart rate (MPHR) on dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is defined as chronotropic incompetence.
