Abstract Background Double kissing (DK)‐crush and T‐stenting small protrusion (TAP) techniques are gaining popularity, but the comparison for both is still lacking. This study sought to retrospectively evaluate long‐term outcomes of DK‐crush TAP in patients with complex bifurcation lesions. Methods A total 255 (male: 205 [80.3%], mean age: 59.56 ± 10.13 years) who underwent coronary intervention at a single‐center between January 2014 May 2021 were included. Angiographic features, procedure...
Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value fragmented QRS (fQRS) on electrocardiography (ECG) patients with acute ST‐segment elevation in myocardial infarction (STEMI), who are undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We prospectively enrolled 414 consecutive STEMI (mean age 55.2 ± 12.2 years old, range 26–91‐years old) PCI. were divided into two groups according presence or absence fQRS as shown by ECG first 48 hours. group defined...

Clinical characteristics, in-hospital six-month outcomes PCI were analysed.Results...
Objectives The prognostic value of pentraxin 3 (PTX3) has been documented in patients with acute coronary syndrome. However, its long-term ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. aim this study was to evaluate the PTX3 STEMI undergoing a primary percutaneous intervention (PCI). Methods We prospectively enrolled 499 consecutive PCI. high-PTX3 group (n=141) defined as having values third tertile (≥3.2 ng/ml) and low-PTX3 (n=358) included lower two tertiles (<3.2...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).The sCD40L has been documented acute syndrome; however, its STEMI remains unclear.We prospectively enrolled 499 consecutive (397 men, 102 women) PCI. population divided into tertiles on basis admission values. high group (n=168) included third tertile (≥0.947 mg/l) and low...
Background It is well known that approximately 20% of patients who undergo cardiac surgery experience weight loss in postoperative period. However, there a lack data on consequences malnutrition. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between nutritional status and long-term outcomes undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Material methods A total 586 underwent CABG our center January 2015 March 2016 were included this study. The primary outcome was major...
Inflammation and increased platelet activation play a crucial role in the initiation progression of atherosclerosis. Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) has recently been reported as new independent predictor for major adverse cardiovascular events diseases.To investigate relation between PLR mortality patients with intermittent claudication or critical limb ischemia (CLI) both.In our retrospective study, 602 consecutive who were admitted to large tertiary hospital diagnosis symptomatic...
Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a measure of variation in the size circulating red blood cells. Recent studies have reported strong independent relation between elevated RDW and short- long-term prognosis various disorders. The aim present study was to investigate relationship admission RDW-to-platelet ratio (RPR) in-hospital patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total 470 consecutive diagnosis...
Coronary artery disease continues to be the most important cause of morbidity and mortality. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is independently associated with subclinical atherosclerosis. In this study, we aimed assess relationship between presence coronary plaques OSA plaque burden severity according type.In cross-sectional enrolled 214 consecutive patients who were divided into four groups 43 (age: 52.3 ± 6.4 years) without OSA, 51 53.9 6.7 mild 40 55.2 5.9 moderate 80 54.9 7.2 severe...
Metabolic syndrome has been recognized as a predictor of cardiovascular diseases. Epicardial fat tissue (EFT) thickness recently shown to be diseases in metabolic patients. Endocan is novel molecule which considered an early marker endothelial dysfunction. Our aim was evaluate endocan serum levels for the first time patients, relation EFT thickness.The study included 44 patients with who had neither chronic kidney disease nor inflammation and 26 healthy controls. Fasting blood samples were...
Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an effective, less invasive treatment alternative for symptomatic severe stenosis (AS). Acute kidney injury (AKI) following TAVI a common complication and associated with worse outcomes. The age, creatinine, ejection fraction (ACEF) score simple scoring method, including only three parameters: (EF). was well established in predicting AKI after coronary interventions. Aims: We aimed to evaluate whether this ACEF, may predict...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value D-dimer in patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). has been documented acute syndrome without ST-segment elevation. However, its elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. We prospectively enrolled 453 consecutive (mean age 55.6 ± 12.4 years, 364 male, 89 female) PCI. population divided into tertiles based on admission values. high group (n = 151) defined as a third tertile...
Olanzapine is a potent atypical antipsychotic drug used for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder with approved efficiency.Olanzapine superior to typical drugs low incidence extrapyramidal side effects, especially tardive dyskinesia.The most common effects associated olanzapine are constipation, dyspepsia, weight gain, somnolence, asthenia, dry mouth dizziness.Peripheral edema rarely reported as far we know there no report in literature about peripheral concomitant pericardial...
Background Critical limb ischemia (CLI) patients take too many medications because they are elderly and frail with multiple comorbidities. Polypharmacy is associated frailty, although its prognostic significance in CLI unknown. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of hyperpolypharmacy among adults effect on 1-year amputation mortality. Methods A total 200 who underwent endovascular therapy (EVT) for below-knee (CTC) lesions were included study. Hyperpolypharmacy was defined as...
Objectives Malnutrition has been shown to be associated with survival in a variety of diseases. Our aim is evaluate the prognostic value objective nutritional indexes indicating malnutrition, patients underwent endovascular aortic replacement. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 149 consecutive who technically successful replacement operation between October 2010 and August 2019. Objective indexes, index, geriatric risk index controlling status, scores were calculated using preoperative...
The CHA2DS2-VASc score is associated with adverse clinical outcomes in patients cardiovascular disease. residual Syntax (rSS) a scoring tool which has prognostic value ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Our aim this study to investigate the predictive of on rSS STEMI patients.A total 688 consecutive undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention were evaluated. Baseline demographic and variables besides assessed. divided into two groups; 8 or below as group 1 (509 patients)...
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a less invasive and safe therapeutic alternative in patients who are at very high surgical risk or whom there contraindications to open surgery. On the other hand, allocating transcatheter therapy adequate candidates identifying reliable validated stratification tool for mortality prediction still lacking. The C-reactive (CRP) albumin ratio (CAR) novel inflammation-based prognostic it strongly associated with inflammation severity mortality....
BACKGROUND: Double-kissing (DK) crush and DK culotte are the recommended 2-stent strategies in true coronary bifurcation lesions. However, it is a matter of curiosity about which stenting techniques will have superior results. We aimed to compare clinical outcomes nonleft main artery bifurcation. METHODS: Consecutive patients who received or technique for de novo lesion were categorized according treatment they received. The primary end point study was target failure as composite...
