Acute myocardial infarction due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection in a 6-year-old boy with ADHD on the third day of treatment with methylphenidate
Methylphenidate (MPH) is an indirect-acting sympathomimetic drug and structurally related to amphetamine. It is widely used to treat children aged 6 years and older, as well as adolescents who have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We report on a 6-year-old boy who presented with typical angina symptoms occurring several hours after intake of an increased dose of MPH, which had been initiated for ADHD treatment 2 days earlier. Despite typical angina symptoms, the diagnosis of myocardial infarction due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection of the right coronary artery was delayed. Most epidemiological studies could not detect an increased risk for cardiovascular events in association with ADHD medications. However, the direct temporal relationship in our case indicates the possibility that MPH may trigger spontaneous coronary artery dissection in predisposed patients. Since myocardial infarction in children is rare but comprises various etiologies, awareness of this possible catastrophic event among medical staff may be lower and may delay immediate life-saving diagnostic and therapeutic measures.

Book Review
A new art : photography and impressionism
\"In the 19th century, numerous photographers chose the same motifs as Impressionist painters: the forest of Fontainebleau, the cliffs of Étretat or the modern metropolis of Paris. They, too, studied the changing light, seasons and weather conditions. From its inception, photographers pursued artistic ambitions, as evidenced by their experimentation with composition and perspective, by means of various technical procedures. Until the First World War, the relationship between photography and painting was characterized both by competition and mutual influence. The exhibition and catalogue examine these interactions and illuminate the development of the new medium from the 1850s to its establishment as an autonomous art form around 1900\"-- Provided by publisher.
