Endothelial dysfunction is regarded as the initial lesion in development of atherosclerosis. Endocan, previously called endothelial cell–specific molecule 1 (ESM-1), a new candidate immunoinflammatory marker that may be associated with cardiometabolic risk factors. Therefore, we assessed serum levels endocan newly diagnosed patients untreated essential hypertension (HT). A total 18 HT and 23 normotensive control participants were included study. Serum levels, carotid intima–media thickness...

Psoriasis vulgaris is an inflammatory disease characterized by epidermal hyperproliferation, leucocyte adhesion molecule expression and infiltration. associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction widely regarded as being the initial process in development atherosclerosis. Human endothelial cell‐specific molecule‐1 (endocan) a novel human molecule. Previous studies suggested that endocan may be marker. To investigate relationship between serum levels both...

High level of circulating red cell distribution width (RDW) and neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio may reflect ongoing vascular inflammation play an important role in pathophysiology hypertension. We evaluate the effects nebivolol metoprolol on RDW N/L new essential hypertensive patients. After baseline assessment, 72 patients were randomly allocated to 5 mg/d (n = 37, 20 men) or 100 35, 18 treated for 6 months. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), RDW, measured before after treatment. BP...

Atherosclerosis plays an important role in the etiopathogenesis of coronary artery ectasia (CAE). Inflammation markers may play a part pathogenesis CAE. We aimed to assess association between CAE and neutrophil-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio. Consecutive eligible patients (n = 181) were divided into 3 groups: with CAE, those newly diagnosed disease (CAD), normal angiogram. The N/L ratio mean platelet volume (MPV) measured as automated complete blood count. There no statistically significant...

Behçet disease (BD) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation. The neutrophil-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) are markers of inflammation vascular risk, respectively. We assessed the relationship between cIMT values N/L in BD (65 patients 62 control participants). There were statistically significant differences ratios group (P < .001). moderate positive correlations value, C-reactive protein, BD. Receiver-operating characteristic curve...

Neutrophils and lymphocytes (N/L) ratio carotid intima–media thickness (C-IMT) value have been studied as new predictors of cardiovascular risk. We aimed to investigate N/L C-IMT in patients with cardiac syndrome X (CSX) compare coronary artery disease (CAD) normal participants. A total 288 participants were enrolled the study. The compared among 3 groups. There no statistically significant differences levels between CSX CAD was found significantly increased CAD, control group. Patients had...

High levels of circulating Von Willebrand factor (vWf) and increased neutrophil to lymphocyte (N/L) ratio may reflect vascular inflammation in hypertensive patients. In present study, we aimed investigate the effects valsartan as an angiotensin II receptor antagonist amlodipine a calcium channel blocker on vWf N/L patients with essential hypertension. Patients were randomized one following intervention protocols: (amlodipine, 5–10 mg/day) group A (n = 20 mean age 51.85 ± 11.32 y)...

Cardiac syndrome X is characterized by angina-like chest pain, a positive stress test, and normal coronary arteries. A patient's mean platelet volume, which potentially reflects function activity, associated with atherosclerosis endothelial dysfunction. The aim of the present study was to evaluate volumes patients cardiac X, those artery disease subjects.Two hundred thirty-six subjects (76 78 disease, 82 controls) were enrolled in study. All evaluated detailed medical history, physical...

Vascular inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of hypertension and high levels endocan may reflect ongoing vascular hypertensive patients. In present hypothesis-generating study, we aimed at investigating comparative effects amlodipine valsartan on newly diagnosed The study population consisted 37 untreated patients who were randomized to two treatment arms. After baseline assessment, each patient was randomly allocated either 10 mg daily (n = 18, 7 males) or 160 19, 3...

Behcet disease (BD) and recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) are systemic inflammatory diseases, but the exact pathogenesis of both diseases is unknown. Mean platelet volume (MPV) an indicator activation. The aim this study was to investigate MPV levels in patients with BD, RAS, healthy participants. A total 61 60 controls were included study. erythrocyte sedimentation rate BD RAS groups significantly higher than control (P < .001). In group as well group, activity does not affect MPV. may be...

Psoriasis is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis. Endothelial dysfunction the critical early step in process atherogenesis, and it commonly investigated by measuring arterial stiffness. We aimed to investigate relationship between stiffness high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) patients psoriasis. A total 32 psoriasis 35 other skin diseases were included study. The hsCRP levels measurements compared. Arterial was significantly different 2 groups (P = .01). not duration...

Although mean platelet volume (MPV) is an independent correlate of impaired angiographic reperfusion and 6-month mortality in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI), there less data regarding the association between distribution width (PDW) in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). A total 306 patients STEMI pPCI were evaluated. No reflow was defined as a post-PCI thrombolysis (TIMI) flow grade 0, 1, or...

The red cell distribution width-platelet ratio (RPR), a novel inflammatory marker is currently used to predict inflammation in chronic diseases. It may be associated with adverse outcomes among artery disease but its prognostic value ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been fully investigated. There no data regarding the association between RPR and in-hospital major cardiovascular events (MACEs). This study...
