In this study, our aim is to examine the role of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predictions recurrence under long-term follow-up patients whose sinus rhythms (SRs) were restored with amiodarone acute atrial fibrillation (AF).Retrospectively, AF, which successfully converted SR treatment, recruited into study. Patients experiencing first AF attack enrolled study and followed up for 5 years (median 23 months, 25-75 percentiles 12-24 months). Neutrophil was computed as absolute count...

Hyperhomocysteinemia is a known risk factor for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and related with the severity of artery disease (CAD). Previous studies have used less quantifiable scoring systems assessing CAD. Therefore, we aimed to assess relationship between homocysteine levels SYNTAX score (SXscore), which currently more widely grade CAD.A total 503 patients adiagnosis ACS were examined angiographically SXscore. The divided into three groups according SXscore; Group 1 low SXscore (≤ 22), 2...
