"The virus [porcine cytomegalovirus DNA] that showed up very early at Day 20 as just a twinkle started to grow in time, and it may have been the actor — it could have been the actor — that set this all off" nytimes.com/2022/05/05/hea…

Congratulations to MS4 UC San Diego School of Medicine Emanuel Keiler, MD on giving a poster discussion at ATS PC Assembly on the role of proBNP in #CTEPH. Independent hemodynamics, meds, sex and age, proBNP >1000 is predictive of post-op complications.

Jenny Yang representing the UC San Diego Health Balloon Angioplasty program well at ATS PC Assembly. We are seeing different #CTEPH patients than European/Japanese BPA registries. UCSD BPA pts have more risk factors for distal disease; >25% were post PTE.

I sold my 2018 Winnebago ERA 170M to Camping World San Diego (Ticket #C-GW100192107) for $60,600 cash. Loan was paid, DMV issued clear title 7/7/25. They refuse to release my check & stall like it’s consignment. Complaint filed: CA DMV #PC-0000043222. Marcus Lemonis
