Abstract
Background Puccinia arachidis fungus causes rust disease in the peanut plants (Arachis hypogaea L.), which leads to high yield loss. Metabolomic profiling of Arachis hypogaea was performed to identify the pathogen-induced production of metabolites involved in the defense mechanism of peanut plants. In this study, two peanut genotypes, one susceptible (JL-24) and one resistant (GPBD-4) were inoculated with Puccinia arachidis fungal pathogen. The metabolic response was assessed at the control stage (0 day without inoculation), 2 DAI (Day after inoculation), 4 DAI and 6 DAI by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Results About 61 metabolites were identified by NIST library, comprising sugars, phenols, fatty acids, carboxylic acids and sugar alcohols. Sugars and fatty acids were predominant in leaf extracts compared to other metabolites. Concentration of different metabolites such as salicylic acid, mannitol, flavonoid, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid, linolenic acid and glucopyranoside were higher in resistant genotype than in susceptible genotype during infection. Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) and hypersensitive reaction (HR) components such as oxalic acid was elevated in resistant genotype during pathogen infection. Partial least square-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was applied to GC-MS data for revealing metabolites profile between resistant and susceptible genotype during infection. Conclusion The phenol content and oxidative enzyme activity i.e. catalase, peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase were found to be very high at 4 DAI in resistant genotype (p-value < 0.01). This metabolic approach provides information about bioactive plant metabolites and their application in crop protection and marker-assisted plant breeding.

Abstract
Abstract
Aspirin in combination with a P2Y12 inhibitor is the mainstay of treatment post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, patients who are allergic to or intolerant to aspirin pose a therapeutic challenge especially when encountered in the setting of acute coronary syndrome. Aspirin desensitization strategies have been used in clinical practice to build tolerance prior to coronary intervention but clearly are not practical in the setting of ACS or significant symptomatic CAD. Low dose rivaroxaban (2.5 mg twice a day) has been previously shown to be safe in combination with a P2Y12 inhibitor post ACS compared to aspirin. We therefore sought to see if low dose rivaroxaban is a safe and effective alternative to aspirin in patients post PCI who are unable to take aspirin.This study aims to compare the efficacy (Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)) and safety (Bleeding events as defined by Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) criteria) in patients with confirmed aspirin allergy who were treated with low dose rivaroxaban therapy in place of aspirin in combination with P2Y12 inhibitors post PCI.
Methods
This was a single center observational study which looked at 50 cases of patients with aspirin allergy (47 cases) or significant confirmed aspirin intolerance (3 cases) who underwent PCI between December 2017 and February 2022. Patients were advised to take low dose rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice a day as an alternative to aspirin 75 mg once a day. A comparator group of 50 matched patients without aspirin allergy who underwent PCI during the same time period and treated with standard aspirin therapy (75mg) along with a P2Y12 inhibitor. Outcomes over follow-up were MACE (mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unscheduled revascularisation) and bleeding events defined by–BARC criteria.
Results
The median age of the aspirin allergy cohort was 62 years old with typical comorbidities associated with CAD. The cohort included a case mix of ACS and stable angina.The P2Y12 inhibitor in the majority of cases (76%) was Clopidogrel; Ticagrelor was used in 20% of cases and Prasugrel in 4% cases. No differences existed between the rivaroxaban and matched patient groups. The median follow-up as 626 days (Interquartile range 237–549). The duration of low dose rivaroxaban therapy was for 12 months with a P2Y12 in 72%, 1–3 months for 22% and finally continued long term (with P2Y12 discontinuation at 12 months) in 6%. No difference existed in the incidence of MACE between the low dose rivaroxaban group (12%) compared to the matched cohort (10% p=0.266). No difference in bleeding outcomes (any bleeding event BARC type >0) were seen (14% in rivaroxaban and 16% in control, p=0.329).
Conclusions
This study provides more supporting evidence that low dose rivaroxaban therapy is an alternative to aspirin when used in combination with a P2Y12 inhibitor post PCI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It has been previously reported during the first COVID outbreak that patients presenting with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and concurrent COVID-19 infection have increased thrombus burden and poorer outcomes [1]. Subsequently, there have been multiple further waves of the pandemic with the emergence of at least two new COVID-19 variants and the emergence of vaccinations. To-date, there have been no reports comparing the outcomes of COVID-19-positive STEMI patients across all waves of the pandemic.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to compare the baseline demographic, procedural and angiographic characteristics alongside the clinical outcomes of patients presenting with STEMI and concurrent COVID-19 infection across the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK.
Methods
This was a single-centre, observational study of 1250 consecutive patients admitted with confirmed STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at Barts Heart Centre between 01/03/2020 and 10/03/2022. COVID +ve patients were split into 3 groups based upon the time course of the pandemic (Wave 1: March 2020-June 2020, Wave 2: Sept 2020-March 2021, Wave 3: October 2021-March 2022). Comparison was made between waves and with a control group of COVID-ve patients treated during the same timeframe.
Results
A total of 135 COVID +ive patients with STEMI (1st Wave: 39 patients, 2nd Wave: 60 patients, 3rd wave 35 pts) were included in the present analysis; and compared with 1115 COVID negative patients. Significant changes in the baseline characteristics, angiographic features and clinical outcomes of COVID +ive patients occurred over time. Early during the pandemic (Wave 1 2020), STEMI patients presenting with concurrent COVID-19 infection had high rates of cardiac arrest, evidence of increased thrombus burden (higher rates of multi-vessel thrombosis, stent thrombosis, higher modified thrombus grade higher use of GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors and thrombus aspiration, coagulability (more heparin for therapeutic ACT), bigger infarcts (lower myocardial blush grade and left ventricular function) and worse outcomes (mortality). However, by wave 3 (late 2021/2022), no differences existed in clinical characteristics, thrombus burden, infarct size or outcomes between COVID +ive patients and those without concurrent COVID-19 infection with significant differences compared to earlier COVID +ve patients. Poor outcomes later in the study period were predominantly in unvaccinated individuals.
Conclusions
Significant changes have occurred in the clinical characteristics, angiographic features and outcomes of STEMI patients with COVID-19 infection treated by primary PCI during the course of the pandemic. Importantly it appears that angiographic features and outcomes of recent waves are no different to a non-COVID-19 population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) complicates around one in six cases of acute and chronic left ventricular systolic dysfunction and is associated with an increased risk of stroke, major systemic embolism and death, believed to be ameliorated by anticoagulation. Off-label use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for LVT has steadily increased, largely based on favourable outcomes in atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism, but the safety and efficacy of DOACs versus vitamin K antagonists (VKA) for LVT remains uncertain.
Purpose
The main aim of our study was to compare treatment of LVT with VKA to DOAC, focusing on all-cause mortality, stroke, major systemic emboli and major bleeding.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective observational longitudinal study of patients presenting to two large quaternary centres between 2011 and 2021 with a diagnosis of LVT. Patients were eligible if they had a documented LVT and received anticoagulation with either VKA or DOAC. Baseline data, thrombus characteristics, treatment type and duration, follow up imaging and clinical events were recorded using electronic health care records. Outcome measures included thrombus resolution, stroke and systemic embolism (SSE), major bleeding and mortality.
Results
A total of 955 patients were identified, of whom 901 received treatment with either a VKA (567 pts, 62.9%) or a DOAC (334 pts, 37.1%) and were included in the analysis. Underlying aetiologies included acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (38.3%), chronic ischaemic cardiomyopathy (38.0%) and non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy (23.7%). Rivaroxaban (43.4%) was the most frequently prescribed DOAC followed by apixaban (35.9%), and the remaining on edoxaban (20.7%). AMI related LVT was more commonly treated with DOAC (53.0%) and chronic ischaemic cardiomyopathy with VKA (72.9%).
There was a lower baseline LVEF in the VKA cohort (29.5±13.2 vs 33.1±14.2, p<0.0001). Other demographic features were comparable. Median follow up was 2.5 years (IQR: 1–3.5). There were no differences in follow up duration between the two treatments (p=0.17). Greater rates of thrombus resolution were seen in the DOAC group compared to VKA (1 year: 78.4% vs 51.4%, p<0.0001), with higher rates of persistent thrombus over the follow-up period seen in the VKA group (25.1% vs 12.9%, p<0.0001). Rates of stroke and systemic embolization were similar between the groups (VKA 9.3% vs 9.6% DOAC, p=0.93). Higher rates of bleeding (BARC >3, 8.1% VKA, 3.6% DOAC, p=0.031) (Figure 1A) and mortality (VKA 18.5%, DOAC 10.2%, p=0.001) (Figure 1B) were seen in the VKA group over the follow-up period.
Conclusions
In a large multi-centre registry of LVT of mixed aetiology, anticoagulation with DOAC was associated with earlier and greater rates of thrombus resolution and consequential reduced adverse events (major bleeding and mortality) during follow up. A funding application to support a multi-centre randomised control trial is underway.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In patients presenting with non ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) an invasive approach has been shown to be superior to conservative management.
Purpose
We aimed to investigate the optimal timing of invasive coronary angiography and subsequent intervention.
Methods
We examined the impact ofearly (≤24h) versus delayed (>24h) intervention in a large observational cohort of 20882 consecutive patients with acute NSTE myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) treated with PCI between 2005 and 2015 at 9 tertiary cardiac centers in London (UK) using Cox-regression analysis and propensity matching.
Results
Mean age was 64.5±12.7 years and 26.1% were females. A quarter (27.6%), were treated within 24h.Patients treated within 24h were slightly younger (62.8±12.8 vs. 65.2±12.6, p<0.001), most commonly male (76% vs. 72.9%, p<0.001) and were more frequently ventilated (2.3% vs. 1.4%, p<0.001) and in cardiogenic shock (3.6% vs. 1.4%, p<0.001) with dynamic changes on their ECG (84.5% vs. 76.1% p<0.001). At a median follow up of 4.2 years (interquartile range 1.8 to 7) 17.7% of patients had died. Estimated 5-year survival in patients treated within 24h was 84.6% vs. 81% for those treated >24h following their presentation (p<0.001). This survival benefit remained following adjustment for confounders; HR (delayed vs. early management)1.11 (95% CI 1.003 to 1.23, p=0.046). In the propensity matched cohort of 4356 patients in each group, there remained a trend for higher survival in the early intervention group (p=0.061).
Conclusions
Notwithstanding the limitations of the retrospective design, this real-world cohort of NSTEMI patients suggests that an early intervention (≤24h) may improve mid term survival.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Limited information exists regarding procedural success and clinical outcomes in patients with previous CABG undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to compare outcomes in patients undergoing PCI with or without previous coronary artery bypass grafts (CABG).
Methods
This was an observational cohort study of 123,780 consecutive PCI procedures from the Pan-London (United Kingdom) PCI registry, from January 2005 to December 2015. The primary end-point was all-cause mortality at a median follow-up of 3.0 years (interquartile range 1.2–4.6 years).
Results
12,641 (10.2%) patients had a history of previous CABG, of whom 29.3% (n=3,703) underwent PCI to native vessels and 70.7% (n=8,938) to bypass grafts. There were significant differences in the demographic, clinical, and procedural characteristics of these groups. The risk of mortality during follow-up was significantly higher in patients with prior CABG (23.2%) (p=0.0005) compared to patients with no history of prior CABG (12.1%) and was seen for patients who underwent either native vessel (20.1%) or bypass graft PCI (24.2%, p<0.0001). However, after adjustment for baseline characteristics, there was no significant difference in outcomes seen between the groups when PCI was performed in native vessels in patients with previous CABG (HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.77–1.34; P=0.89) but a significant increase in mortality among patients with PCI to bypass grafts (HR 1.33 95% CI 1.03–1.71, P=0.026). This was seen after multivariate adjustment and propensity matching.
Figure 1. Kaplan-Meier Curves
Conclusion
Patients with prior CABG are older, with a greater comorbid burden and more complex procedural characteristics, but after adjustment for these differences clinical outcomes are similar to patients undergoing PCI without prior CABG. In these patients, native vessel PCI was associated with better outcomes compared to the treatment of vein grafts.

Abstract
Diagnosis of esophageal atresia (EA) with tracheo-esophageal fistula (TEF) can be easily done in newborns with symptoms of excessive salivation and failure to pass infant-feeding tube (IFT) into the stomach. There are many reports in the literature which describe the diagnostic pitfall of this IFT test. We describe a case of a neonate with EA with TEF in which the upper atretic esophageal pouch had grown long enough to reach up to the level of diaphragm, thus allowing the IFT to go up to significant distance from the alveolus giving the radiograph as if the tube is in the upper part of stomach, thus creating a diagnostic dilemma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Transjugular liver biopsy is accepted procedure in patients in whom percutaneous liver biopsy is contraindicated. We report our experience with this procedure, its indications, efficacy and safety in Indian population over 5 years. MATERIAL & METHODS A retrospective study of 145 consecutive patients who had undergone transjugular liver biopsy from May 2002 to Nov. 2007 was done from the database maintained in our department. We evaluated the indications, technical success, complication and impact of histological diagnosis on the management of those patients. RESULTS 145 Transjugular liver biopsies were performed of which 74 were males and 71 were females aged between 5 and 74 years. Two procedures were abandoned due to failed hepatic vein cannulation because of venous occlusion. Out of 143 biopsies, 4 were inadequate while 139 yielded adequate tissue for histopathological diagnosis. Histopathological examination in our study showed cirrhotic changes in 56, hepatitis including both acute and chronic in 48, periportal fibrosis in 9, Wilson's disease in 5 and obstructive cholangiopathy in 2 patients. The remaining 19 were normal. Minor complications occurred in 2 patients. CONCLUSION Transjugular liver biopsy is a safe procedure in the trained hands and provides adequate tissue for diagnosis when percutaneous liver biopsy is contraindicated.

Abstract
Genital tuberculosis is an important cause of infertility in developing countries and hysterosalpingography (HSG) is the initial procedure performed for the evaluation. Reviewing 37 cases of female genital tuberculosis, we encountered various appearances on HSG. Of 579 HSGs performed over a period of 4 years, 492 (85%) were performed as part of infertility work up. Genital tuberculosis was found in 6.3% of all the patients who underwent HSGs and 7.5% of all patients investigated for infertility. The various features of proven tuberculosis cases are illustrated in this pictorial review. We briefly discuss the pathology and these appearances along with radiopathological correlation.

Abstract
Russels's viper bite victims with systemic poisoning may present with hemorrhagic manifestations, including spontaneous bleeding and incoagulable blood associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation and primary fibrinolysis, two of the most prominent manifestations of the systemic envenoming by this species. Various vascular complications of viperine snake bite have been reported in the literature. We report the computed tomographic findings in a case of snake bite resulting in hemoperitoneum, which, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported in the literature.

Abstract
Ovarian cystic teratomas are cystic fatty tumors that can be easily diagnosed by sonography and CT. We present a case of ovarian cystic teratoma with an unusual sonographic appearance of mobile, hyperechoic, intracystic fat balls; this finding correlated well with the appearance on CT.

Abstract
Inflammatory pulmonary pseudotumour is an uncommon, non-neoplastic, occasionally aggressive spindle cell proliferative process of uncertain nosology. It has distinctive histopathological features and benign clinico-biological behaviour with multifocal lesions or recurrences in a minority of cases. Recognition of this entity is of paramount importance because it has considerable therapeutic and prognostic implications. The radiological features of two patients with pulmonary pseudotumour that was confirmed on histopathological examination are described.

Abstract
Spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinomas are uncommon but constitute a critical and life threatening condition. Diagnosis is important so that either surgery or emergency arterial embolisation can be considered for hepatic haemostasis. We describe active extravasation of intravenous contrast medium on CT in a patient who presented with intraperitoneal haemorrhage secondary to spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Methanol, through its chief metabolite, formate, causes irreversible neurological damage. Methanol intoxication produces classic neuropathological changes and characteristic imaging findings. Computed tomography was performed on four patients who presented with a history of methanol poisoning. Prominent, hypodense lesions in the lentiform nuclei and peripheral white matter, sometimes with haemorrhage, were the characteristic imaging findings in the present patients. It was noted that the severity and extent of necrosis of the lentiform nuclei do not necessarily correlate with the clinical outcome.
