Platelets play a key role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. The degree platelet activation may be assessed by indices such as count, mean volume (MPV) distribution width (PDW).To evaluate relationship between clinical features coronary artery disease (CAD).Our population is represented total 441 consecutive patients undergoing angiography. Patients were divided into three groups according to their presentation: with stable angina (Group I), acute syndrome II),...

Warfarin is highly efficacious in reducing stroke risk patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, its safety and efficacy prevention markedly influenced by time therapeutic range (TTR). The quality of anticoagulant therapy varies considerably among countries. Representative data concerning the effects on clinical outcomes Turkey are lacking.Warfarin Therapeutic Range (WATER) registry a prospective, observational study which followed 572 AF (mean age 67.3 ± 12 years; females 60%; 71%...

Objective There are lack of studies considering the suboptimal management dyslipidemia especially in cardiology outpatient clinics. This study was conducted to assess patient adherence cholesterol treatment recommendations and attainment low-density-lipoprotein (LDL-C) goals. Methods EPHESUS (NCT02608645) is a national, observational multicenter registry which has been designed as cross-sectional allow inclusion all consecutive patients with hypercholesterolemia The present subgroup analyses...

Effective treatment of high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels has been shown to improve cardiovascular outcomes patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Herein, we aimed provide insight the real-life management DM in terms LDL-C goal attainment and adherence lipid recommendations. Our objective was also reveal reasons poor by assessing perceptions both physicians patients.We compared diabetic non-diabetic from database a nationwide registry conducted cardiology outpatient...

Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have advanced atherosclerosis compared nondiabetics. Restenosis after intracoronary stent implantation occurs frequently in diabetic patients. Angiotensin II is an important growth factor for the development of neointimal hyperplasia vascular injury. The aim our study was to evaluate relationships between angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and coronary artery disease (CAD) restonosis One hundred thirty...

A 56-year-old female patient hospitalized with diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome underwent early intervention. Anticoagulant and antithrombotic treatment was administered, including acetylsalicylic acid, clopidogrel, heparin in periprocedural period. Severe back pain rapidly progressing paraplegia developed period follow-up. The surgery immediately after spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) causing pressure, decompression performed. improved without recurrence through surgical...

Coronary artery steal syndromes may occur following coronary bypass grafting as a result of the presence large side-branches arising from internal mammary (IMA). Coil embolization, Amplatzer Vascular Plug and graft stents are all used for treatment such syndromes. The literature contains limited data on long-term success these methods. There is no series regarding occluded IMA side branches causing phenomena, follow-up this method also very limited. This report presented two cases their...

The spatial localization of the coenzyme FAD in quaternary structure alcohol oxidase from yeast Pichia pinus was studied by tritium planigraphy and ESR methods. In present paper we measured specific radioactivity labelled as a part complex. specific-radioactivity ratio for two portions (FMN AMP) calculated. experiments show 4 A (0.4 nm) to be depth immersion paramagnetic isoalloxazines into octamer molecules. It is suggested that molecules are bound surface octamer, rather than subunit...

Vasospastic angina (VSA) is an important functional cardiac disorder that leads to transient myocardial ischemia and caused by sudden, intense reversible coronary artery spasm resulting in subtotal or total occlusion.[1,2] VSA associated with conditions such as stable unstable angina, acute syndromes lethal arrhythmias. The patients usually present chest pain, which might not be accompanied ischemic ECG changes.[1,3] Vasospasm predominantly hyper-reactive vascular smooth muscle cells...

Aim: Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) are the main drugs used in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular embolic diseases. In long term therapy with VKA, efficacy safety primarily depends on INR level. The necessity monitorization is major difficulty routine usage these drugs. selftest devices created to overcome this by analyzing from capillary blood outof-hospital settings. Although present medical markets for last 20 years, number patients using only about %1 whole VKA therapy....
