“…Even in the high-fat diet hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein E knockout mice model, prominent fibrosis with a smaller lipid core was observed [6] . This was consistent with the IVUS findings in our case and the literature [7,8] . Atherosclerotic lesions, especially advanced lesions, are characterized by a necrotic core with a large lipid pool, which can be unstable even before becoming obstructive.…”

“…[ 6 ] This was consistent with the IVUS findings in our case and the literature. [ 7 , 8 ] Atherosclerotic lesions, especially advanced lesions, are characterized by a necrotic core with a large lipid pool, which can be unstable even before becoming obstructive. Thus, thrombotic complications due to plaque rupture or plaque erosion often bring patients to the clinician with the most dramatic presentations, such as acute coronary syndrome.…”

Rationale:Mediastinal radiotherapy is a common practice for treating breast cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Radiotherapy causes cardiovascular damage and has attracted increasing attention, particularly among Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, as they receive a higher dose of radiation.Patient concerns:A 36-year-old woman with a past medical history of Hodgkin's lymphoma presented with persistent chest pain for 3 hours. She experienced exertional chest pain 1 month before when she was climbing stairs, which disappeared after a few minutes with rest, but recurred with a similar level of exertion. Three hours before admission to the emergency room, the chest pain persisted and was accompanied by diaphoresis and dyspnea.Diagnosis:Cardiogenic shock caused by radiotherapy-induced left main coronary artery disease.Interventions:Urgent angiography revealed left main coronary artery stenosis. Intravascular ultrasonography showed diffuse fibrous proliferation in the left main coronary artery. Hemodynamic instability was resolved after drug-eluting stent implantation.Outcomes:The patient was discharged uneventfully 5 days after the procedure, with a prescription for dual antiplatelet and statin therapy. She was asymptomatic with good exercise tolerance at the 3-month follow-up.Conclusion:Radiotherapy-induced isolated left main coronary artery disease is a rare complication of cancer radiotherapy and can occur years or decades after treatment. Fibrous proliferation is a characteristic pathologic change in the exposed coronary arteries.

“…Larger variations in the running FT signal frequency could indicate a different source of light than from an exoplanet on a stable orbit. For example, pulsation-frequency phase changes are commonly observed in sdBVs and pulsating white dwarfs (see sdBV KIC 10670103, Krzesinski et al (2014); or GD358 DBV, Kepler et al (2003).…”

Context. We investigate the validity of the claim that invokes two extreme exoplanetary system candidates around the pulsating B-type subdwarfs KIC 10001893 and KIC 5807616 from the primary Kepler field. Aims. Our goal was to find characteristics and the source of weak signals that are observed in these subdwarf light curves. Methods. To achieve this, we analyzed short-and long-cadence Kepler data of the two stars by means of a Fourier transform and compared the results to Fourier transforms of simulated light curves to which we added exoplanetary signals. The long-cadence data of KIC 10001893 were extracted from CCD images of a nearby star, KIC 10001898, using a point spread function reduction technique.Results. It appears that the amplitudes of the Fourier transform signals that were found in the low-frequency region depend on the methods that are used to extract and prepare Kepler data. We demonstrate that using a comparison star for space telescope data can significantly reduce artifacts. Our simulations also show that a weak signal of constant amplitude and frequency, added to a stellar light curve, conserves its frequency in Fourier transform amplitude spectra to within 0.03 µHz. Conclusions. Based on our simulations, we conclude that the two low-frequency Fourier transform signals found in KIC 5807616 are likely the combined frequencies of the lower amplitude pulsating modes of the star. In the case of KIC 10001893, the signal amplitudes that are visible in the light curve depend on the data set and reduction methods. The strongest signal decreases significantly in amplitude when KIC 10001898 is used as a comparison star. Finally, we recommend that the signal detection threshold is increased to 5 σ (or higher) for a Fourier transform analysis of Kepler data in low-frequency regions.
