      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 567-571; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89a.21093

      Rate control has been preferred as the primary approach, but the pendulum is swinging in favor of rhythm control.

  1. Berglund, Felix

    1. How do we maximize diuresis in acute decompensated heart failure?
      CME article
      Saeid Mirzai, DO, Christopher N. Kanaan, MD, Felix Berglund, MD, Maria Mountis, DO and Heba Wassif, MD, MPH
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 561-565; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89a.22016

      The initial goal is to maximize loop diuretic therapy using urine output or urinary sodium for guidance. Combination therapy can be used when patients respond poorly to escalating loop diuretic doses.

  2. Brahmbhatt, Bhaumik

    1. A 65-year-old man with melena and a blood disorder
      Monia E. Werlang, MD, Marilia L. Montenegro, MD and Bhaumik Brahmbhatt, MD, MBBS

      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 553-555; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89a.22001

      A root canal procedure failed to relieve the pain, and 1 week later the patient developed mobility of the left upper teeth.

      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 549-550; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89a.22045

      The pathogenesis is thought to involve thinning of collagen fibers of the sclera due to iron deficiency, allowing the bluish color of the underlying uvea to become visible.

  1. Mandell, Brian F.

    1. Decongesting heart failure with diuretics: Easier to prescribe than to fully understand

      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 545-546; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89b.10022

      Digging deep into the pathophysiology of diuretic resistance reveals complex interacting pathways. But none of these pathways can fully explain or be used to safely reverse diuretic resistance.

    1. How do I interpret and use quantitative buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine urine levels?

      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine October 2022, 89 (10) 557-560; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.89a.21019

      Confirmatory testing of urine samples can be useful in outpatient settings where buprenorphine dosing is not directly observed. But retaining and engaging the patient in effective treatment should be the ultimate goals of testing.
