Myocardial dysfunction in patients undergoing cardiac surgery is a potential indication for the use of levosimendan, a calcium sensitizer with 3 beneficial cardiovascular effects (inotropic, vasodilatory, and anti-inflammatory), which appears effective in improving clinically relevant outcomes.
An anti-MAP vaccine appears effective in mice and cattle with MAP with no apparent side effects.
Psychopharmacotherapy with risperidone appears effective in the first instance for reactive types of aggression as its effectiveness is mediated by a reduction of impulsivity, which is biologically determined to a certain extent [ 3].
