Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) carry a number of cardiovascular risk factors. Cardiovascular morbidity is elevated even in young women PCOS. Low-grade chronic inflammation, reflected levels serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and endothelial dysfunction have recently been linked to development atherosclerosis. We compared high-sensitivity (hs)CRP concentrations endothelium 37 PCOS 25 control subjects matched as group for age body mass index (BMI). Arterial smooth muscle function was...
The relationship betweeen subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) and cardiovascular disease has been one of the most popular topics recently. There is still some controversy concerning its impact management protocols. Our study aims to investigate presence well known preceding clinical situations atherosclerosis like endothelial dysfunction inflammation in hypothyroidism. Thirty-seven patients with (29 women, 8 men) 23 healthy volunteers (19 4 were recruited for study. Endothelial was measured by...
Objective : Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) exhibit elevated levels of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and impaired endothelium dysfunction which are directly correlated insulin resistance. Because rosiglitazone improves sensitivity, we tested whether treatment ameliorates high-sensitivity (hs)CRP endothelial in these patients. Design Thirty-one women PCOS were recruited (mean age, 24.7±3.9 ( s.e. ) years; mean body mass index (BMI), 25.6±3.2 kg/m 2 ). All treated 4mg daily for 12...
Introduction Limited data exist on long-term follow-up of severe aortic stenosis (SAS) patients who have undergone transcatheter valve implantation (TAVI) with a new generation, balloon expandable Myval heart (THV). Thus, we sought to investigate the performance and 2-year clinical outcome THV system based Valve Academic Research Consortium-3 (VARC-3) criteria. Material methods A multi-centre, registry-based, observational study was conducted, which included 207 consecutive degenerative SAS...
Abstract Background: The components of the metabolic syndrome are closely related with endothelial dysfunction, which is a pathophysiological issue cardiovascular diseases. Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) considered as one syndrome. aim this study was to evaluate endothelial‐dependent dilatation (EDD) and endothelial‐independent (EID) brachial artery in NAFLD. Methods: Fifteen non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), 17 patients simple steatosis 16 healthy subjects formed group. group...
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the long‐term prognosis non‐interventionally followed patients with myocardial bridge and angiographic milking left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Methods All angiography records from May 2000 November 2007 were reevaluated who had more than 70% narrowing during systole on LAD eligible for present study. Follow‐up carried out by physical examination, echocardiography, treadmill exercise testing. clinical situations...
BACKGROUND:Atrial fibrillation (AF) and renal dysfunction are two common comorbidities in patients with chronic heart failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This study evaluated the effect of permanent AF on function HFrEF investigated associations atrial fibrillation, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) adverse clinical outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Serum NGAL levels measured by ELISA NLR were compared between sinus rhythm (HFrEF-SR,...
Aim Left ventricular function, volumes and regional wall motion provide valuable diagnostic information are of long-term prognostic importance in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). This study was designed to compare the effectiveness two-dimensional echocardiography gated single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) evaluate these parameters DCM. Methods Gated SPECT were performed 45 DCM, 10 normal subjects as control group. Patients divided into two groups according aetiology...
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) occurs due to various etiologies that carry different risks for thromboembolism. However, the effect of on left atrial appendage (LAA) function has not been investigated. This study aimed examine LAA in AF occurred under and compare findings with a novel tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) technique by using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Methods: was assessed 84 patients permanent according [mitral stenosis 20 (24%), hypertension 44 (52%),...
Abstract Background: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective option in the treatment of patients with heart failure (HF) and wide QRS. Fragmented QRS (fQRS) on 12‐lead electrocardiography has been shown to predict cardiac events several patient populations. However, relationship between number leads fQRS response CRT not investigated. Hypothesis: The may CRT. Methods: One hundred five HF undergoing were prospectively studied. presence was assessed using standardized criteria....
The study aimed to compare diastolic and systolic dysfunctions detected by echocardiography (ECHO) multigated radionuclide angiography (MUGA) in patients with cancer the first 3 months after anthracycline-comprising chemotherapy. Children leukemia solid tumors who had chemotherapy were enrolled study. ECHO MUGA performed all before course month of completing Cumulative anthracycline doses per body surface calculated. Left ventricular functions measured both techniques. Twenty-one a median...
Several studies exist on the left atrial appendage function (LAA) in permanent fibrillation (AF). However, knowledge about right (RAA) is limited. We investigated RAA with TEE and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) AF patients different etiologies evaluated predictive parameters of spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) thrombi.Patients developed due to three (20 mitral stenosis, 44 hypertension, 20 hyperthyroidism) 23 subjects sinus rhythm were included into study. was examined pulsed-wave TDI...
<b><i>Background: </i></b>The aim of this study was to examine the cardiac effects anthracycline therapy based on speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) and identify patients at risk for cardiotoxicity. <b><i>Patients Methods: included 35 breast cancer (BC) 15 lymphoma who were treated with anthracycline-based chemotherapy. Conventional STE performed 1 month prior after Longitudinal strain analysis via using automated functional imaging....
