    Abstract: Background Primary Percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is an established mainstay in treatment of patients presenting with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, successful revascularization of the culprit coronary vessel does not always mean ideal myocardial reperfusion in a portion of patients, mainly because of the no-r... Show More

    Abstract: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is a genetic disorder with asymmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. In a low income country it is sometimes difficult to do global checkup and precise diagnosis in suspected patients. We present a case of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with MYBPC3 mutation in a young Cameroonian. A 36 years old man with no cardiovasc... Show More

    Abstract: Speedup of present high-molecular drug derivatives developments is based on the computational methods harmonic application. Such glycosidase as hyaluronidase has been functionated among multifarious glycosaminoglycan microenvironment in blood circulation of organism. It is important for elucidation of action mechanism of biosystem components (on va... Show More
