Data on the burden of heart failure (HF) outside western countries are limited, but available data suggest it may present differently in other countries. The aim this study was to examine incidence, prevalence, and survival rates HF Türkiye, with a specific focus how these vary according age, sex, comorbidities, socioeconomic status (SES).We harnessed extensive National Electronic Database Turkish Ministry Health, covering Turkey's entire population from January 1, 2016, December 31, 2022,...
Adherence to non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) is an important factor for ensuring efficacy and safety in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). There are controversial results regarding NOAC adherence real-world data there no about Turkish population. This study investigated the based on self-report, factors affecting nonadherence, relation of level with outcomes. multicenter cross-sectional included 2738 patients (59% female) using (dabigatran, apixaban, rivaroxaban)...
Predicting thromboembolic events caused by left atrial appendage thrombosis (LAAT) is crucial since it the most concerning complication of nonvalvular fibrillation (NVAF). The objective this study was to establish predictive effectiveness a novel scoring system known as CLOTS-AF score in identifying existence thrombus using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) patients with NVAF and compare CHA2DS2-VASc score. This conducted retrospectively 668 who underwent TEE single centre. were...
Background The risk of syncope and sudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias increased in patients with aortic stenosis (AS). Recently, it was shown that Tp‐e interval, Tp‐e/QT, Tp‐e/QTc ratio can be novel indicators for prediction mortality. We aimed investigate the association between AS repolarization using interval Tp‐e/QT ratio. Methods Totally, 105 60 control subjects were enrolled this study. severity defined by transthoracic echocardiographic examination. ratios measured...
The aim of this study was to assess the adherence current European Society Cardiology dyslipidemia guidelines, ratio reaching target values according risk groups, and reasons for not LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) goals in patients on already statin therapy a cardiology outpatient population.
Infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the role of troponin levels in predicting long-term survival patients IE.A retrospective analysis medical database Yuksek Ihtisas Education Research Hospital was performed reach that received diagnosis definite IE according Duke criteria. Out 84 cases, 48 (mean age 45.6 ± 17.3, 39.6% female) had T measured upon hospital admission were included. The status study subjects...
In rheumatic severe mitral stenosis, right ventricular mechanics deteriorate with the increasing severity of stenosis. Therefore, we aimed to investigate in patients mild stenosis using 3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography.In total, 40 and 36 age- gender-matched healthy controls were included. Conventional echocardiographic examination was performed data sets acquired for strain analysis. Besides conventional parameters, volume function echocardiography-derived free wall...
ABSTRACT Background Echocardiographic right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a strong risk determinant for prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). Although parameters of RV systolic function are widely used to define dysfunction, there scarce data suggest these best suited predict HF‐related outcomes. Aims We aimed understand which morphologic or functional most closely associated short‐term mortality and hospitalization HF. Methods A total 191 from eight study centers were included...
Evaluation of heart rate recovery index in heavy smokers IntroductionSmoking is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, there dose-dependent relationship between the daily number cigarettes smoked morbidity mortality.Underlying triggering mechanisms include endothelial dysfunction, enhanced thrombocyte aggregation, coronary vasoconstriction.Smoking an important but preventable with both short-and long-term harmful effects.One effects smoking occurs on autonomous...
A considerable percentage of electrical injuries occur as a result work activities. Electrical injury can lead to various cardiovascular disorders: acute myocardial necrosis, ischemia, heart failure, arrhythmias, hemorrhagic pericarditis, hypertension with peripheral vasospasm, and anomalous, nonspecific ECG alterations. Ventricular fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia resulting from leading cause death in (especially low voltage alternating current) cases. Asystole, premature...
Since visual estimation of the extent vessel stenosis may vary between operators, we aimed in this study to investigate both inter-observer variability and consistency an operator quantitative coronary analysis (QCA) measurements.A total 147 elective percutaneous intervention patients with 155 lesions them were consecutively enrolled study. These evaluated for lesion severity by three operators. The also QCA who was blinded assessments. Reference diameter, minimal lumen percentage diameter...
According to common belief, most myocardial infarctions (MIs) are due the rupture of nonsevere, vulnerable plaques with < 70% obstruction. Data from recent trials challenge this suggesting that risk coronary occlusion is, in fact, much higher after severe stenosis. The aim study was investigate whether or not acute ST-elevation MIs result high-grade stenoses by evaluating presence collateral circulation (CCC).We retrospectively included 207 consecutive patients who had undergone primary...
The frontal QRS-T (fQRST) angle is associated with worse cardiovascular outcome. study aimed to assess the effect of reverse dipping pattern on f(QRST) in newly diagnosed masked hypertensive (MH) patients.Newly 244 consecutive MH patients were included. According pattern, grouped into three: dipper (n = 114), non-dipper 106), and 24) patterns. angle, QT corrected interval, dispersion measured from 12-lead surface electrocardiogram compared between groups.Of all, 51.2% 125) male. No gender...
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of primary stenting treat Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC) D femoropopliteal lesions.Background Advances in wire, balloon stent design have been reported improve durability longer lesions.Methods A total 57 limbs 53 patients with Rutherford stage 3 6 due TASC lesions were treated a self-expanding nitinol prospective, single-centre, observational study. End points interest included secondary patency, target lesion...
Pulse pressure (PP) is the difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure, an independent predictor of atrial fibrillation (AF). In this study we investigated relationship PP conduction times. The included 157 patients with essential hypertension. 60 mmHg or more was regarded as elevated (n=56). Atrial electromechanical delay (EMD) assessed tissue Doppler echocardiography P-wave dispersion (Pd) calculated from electrocardiogram. Left volume index (23.6±4.9 ml/m2 vs. 25.2±6.5 ml/m2,...
Aims The sclerotic lesions of the aortic valve share common features with atherosclerosis. An anti-inflammatory protein, adiponectin, seems to have a protective effect on cardiovascular system. goal our study is determine adiponectin levels in patients sclerosis and compare these values control group similar age risk profile. Methods Sixty-eight 40 controls were included. Serum measured by solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results There no significant differences regarding age,...
