[Leopard syndrome and pulmonary subvalvular stenosis].

Pulmonary valve stenosis is the most frequent congenital heart disease associated with Leopard syndrome, an inheritable condition with a low incidence that we should be aware of and diagnose early. We describe the evolution of a patient with Leopard Syndrome and pulmonary subvalvular stenosis, from birth to the surgical treatment.

[Changes in lipid profile of young persons after substitution of sunflower oil by olive oil in the diet].

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: There is controversy in determining the effects of olive oil in the lipidic metabolism. We studied the changes produced in the lipid profile after substituting sunflower dietetic oil with virgin olive oil. POPULATION AND METHODS: We studied 154 cadets of Academia General Militar de Zaragoza (AGEMZA), analyzing their smoking habits, anthropometric measures and dietetic intake. Hematologic, biochemical and lipidic parameters were determined in venous blood samples. All sunflower dietetic oil was substituted with olive oil, without making any other qualitative-quantitative variation in the diet 10 weeks after which the morphometric and analytical evaluation was repeated, comparing both measurements. RESULTS: 87% of cadets took part in the study. 34.3% of them were smokers. There were no significant anthropometric changes. After the interventional period, there was a decrease of 12.2% in total cholesterol (166.6 vs 146.2 mg/dl; p < 0.0001), 13.5% in LDL-cholesterol (99.7 vs 86.2 mg/dl; p < 0.0001), 12.2% in triglycerides (71.1 vs 62.4 mg/dl; p < 0.0001), 9.9% in HDL-cholesterol (52.6 vs 47.4 mg/dl; p < 0.001), despite which total-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio increased 3.1% (3.2 +/- 0.7 vs 3.1 +/- 0.7; p < 0.001). There were no changes in Lp(a) plasmatic concentrations or hematologic or biochemical parameters. CONCLUSION: The improvement of the lipidic parameters can only be explained by the use of olive oil in the diet of the AGEMZA cadets.

[Diagnostic methods and the prognosis of the heart-hypertension interaction. Isotopes].

The study with isotopes of the hypertensive cardiopathy permits to value the systolic and diastolic dysfunction, and the myocardial ischemia. It is accomplished by means of the equilibrium ventriculography, employing erythrocytes marked with 99mTc. Would be indicated in those cases in which it would not be possible a good definition of the echocardiographic image. The study of the images obtained with 201T1, at rest and in exercise, permit to evaluate the myocardial ischemia and coronary reserve, in hypertensive patients with normal epicardial coronary arteries.
