BACKGROUND: Through various research lead in the past, it has been made evident that Quebec is home to higher rates of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors than other Canadian provinces. This proposed study will perform a retrospective analysis on Caucasian populations in order to analyze the cardiovascular risk factors in partially francophone populations in comparison to French and Non-French Canadians. Furthermore, we will closely analyze both genders of aforementioned populations...

UNLABELLED: Rubidium-ARMI ((82)Rb as an Alternative Radiopharmaceutical for Myocardial Imaging) is a multicenter trial to evaluate the accuracy, outcomes, and cost-effectiveness of low-dose (82)Rb perfusion imaging using 3-dimensional (3D) PET/CT technology. Standardized imaging protocols are essential to ensure consistent interpretation. METHODS: Cardiac phantom qualifying scans were obtained at 7 recruiting centers. Low-dose (10 MBq/kg) rest and pharmacologic stress (82)Rb PET scans were obtained in 25 patients at each site...

UNLABELLED: (18)F-FDG PET may assist decision making in ischemic cardiomyopathy. The PET and Recovery Following Revascularization (PARR 2) trial demonstrated a trend toward beneficial outcomes with PET-assisted management. The substudy of PARR 2 that we call Ottawa-FIVE, described here, was a post hoc analysis to determine the benefit of PET in a center with experience, ready access to (18)F-FDG, and integration with clinical teams. METHODS: Included were patients with left ventricular dysfunction and suspected coronary artery disease being considered for revascularization...

OBJECTIVE: To describe the course and outcome of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis among AIDS patients treated with intravitreal ganciclovir and systemic highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). The secondary objective was to compare the course of CMV retinitis between patients receiving HAART and those not receiving this treatment. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort design consisting of 21 eyes from 16 patients with AIDS and CMV retinitis consecutively enrolled between January 1996 and August 1999...
