Background/aim: High levels of triglyceride (TG) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) values increase atherosclerosis risk. This study evaluates the relationship between peripheral artery disease (PAD) severity complexity, as assessed by TransAtlantic InterSociety Consensus-II (TASC-II) classification triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index.Materials methods: A total 71 consecutive patients with PAD (males 93%, mean age 63.3 ± 9.7), who underwent percutaneous intervention were included retrospectively....
In this study, we aimed to analyze the TURKMI registry identify factors associated with delays from symptom onset treatment that would be focus of improvement efforts in patients acute myocardial infarction (AMI) Turkey.The study is a nation-wide was conducted 50 centers capable 24/7 primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All consecutive (n=1930) AMI admitted care units within 48 hours were prospectively enrolled during predefined 2-week period between November 1, 2018, and 16,...
Idiopathic premature ventricular contractions are frequently detected arrhythmias, and radiofrequency ablation is an effectively treatment for improving symptoms eliminating contractions. Studies have reported a relationship between elevated epicardial adipose tissue thickness myocardial structural pathologies. However, the association success rates of contraction has not yet been investigated.To assess ablation.Retrospective case-control study.This study enrolled total 106 consecutive...
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an established alternative to surgical replacement. Our study aimed evaluate the implementation of TAVI at our large-volume center, having all-comer patient population with short and long-term follow-ups.This retrospective, single-center analysis included 556 consecutive patients symptomatic severe stenosis (AS) who underwent between July 2011 December 2019.The mean age entire was 77.6±7.9 years, 54.9% were women. The Society Thoracic...
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was introduced as an alternative treatment for patients with severe symptomatic stenosis whom surgery would be high-risk. Prosthetic endocarditis is a serious complication of surgical AVR (SAVR) high morbidity and mortality. According to recent cases, post-TAVI prosthetic (PVE) seems occur very rarely. We present the case 75-year-old woman who underwent TAVI (Edwards Saphien XT) uneventful postoperative stay. She diagnosed using three...
Sarcoidosis increases inhomogeneity in ventricular repolarization due to the presence of sarcoid granuloma, which significantly correlates with fibrillation. Various studies have suggested that interval from peak end electrocardiographic T wave (T-peak T-end [Tpe] interval) may correspond transmural dispersion and increased Tpe Tpe/QT ratio are associated malignant arrhythmias. The present study hypothesized QT intervals prolonged sarcoidosis patients without apparent cardiac involvement....
Background/aim: From a pathophysiological point of view, inflammation is thought to be more dominant in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis than tricuspid (TAV) stenosis. Our study aimed determine the association between monocyte high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR), new inflammatory marker, and speed progression pathophysiology BAV stenosis.Materials methods: A total 210 severe patients (70 consecutive patients, 140 matched TAV patients) were retrospectively enrolled...
Mean platelet volume (MPV), one of the indices reactivity has been shown to be related impaired angiographic reperfusion in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients treated with primary angioplasty or thrombolytics. However data regarding MPV and its association resolution; an indicator epicardial tissue level setting STEMI are limited. In this study, we aimed investigate whether on admission is associated resolution thrombolytics.We retrospectively evaluated 232...
Background: Association of premature ventricular complexes (PVC) with left systolic dysfunction (LVSD) and efficacy catheter ablation treatment have been demonstrated in studies. The role atrial (LA) mechanics the etiopathogenesis PVC-induced cardiomyopathy (PVC-CMP) as well changes LA not studied before. Methods: A total number 61 patients (Mean Age 43 ± 3) idiopathic outflow tract (OT) PVCs undergoing radiofrequency (RFCA) were enrolled. ECG, 24 h Holter, echocardiographic evaluation (LV)...
Electrophysiological changes are observed following mechanical stretches due to pressure overload in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). The electrical instability occurs after depolarization and dispersion of repolarization. aim this study was evaluate ventricular repolarization transcatheter valve implantation (TAVI).Thestudypopulationincluded 100 consecutive AS thatunderwent TAVI. Electrocardiography (ECG) performed at baseline, immediately TAVI, 1 week TAVI.The mean age the 78.2 ±...
Although the effect of coronary revascularization on clinical outcomes before and after transcatheter valve implantation (TAVI) is debatable, there currently insufficient data to determine most appropriate strategy. In this study, we present our single-center experience percutaneous intervention (PCI) its mortality in patients undergoing TAVI.We performed a retrospective analysis 526 consecutive at center, 127 with obstructive artery disease were included study. Patients divided into two...
Cardiac surgery may be performed in patients with hematologic disorders, but carries an increased risk of morbidity. This series describes experience transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) malignancies, and highlights the technical considerations to kept mind.Between June 2011 April 2014, 133 consecutive high-risk symptomatic severe stenosis were treated TAVI at our centre. Based on consensus among local heart team, five malignancies (myelodysplastic syndrome [2],chronic lymphocytic...
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is an interventional diagnostic method, based on intracoronary pressure measurement, used for the assessment of severity coronary artery stenoses.Our study aimed to compare visual measurements made by multiple observers with FFR measurement in angiographically moderate stenosis.The angiographic images lesions 359 patients enrolled were interpreted independently three cardiologists assigned as (O1, O2, O3).In FFR, 37.9% haemodynamically significant, while 62.1%...
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an innovative approach to the treatment of stenosis (AS) as alternative surgery in high-risk patients. Mean platelet volume (MPV) considered indicator endothelial dysfunction, function, and activation. In this study, we aimed investigate MPV changes patients undergoing TAVI.This study included 100 diagnosed with symptomatic severe AS treated TAVI between July 2011 August 2013. Hematological parameters were examined prior procedure 24 h, 1...
Objectives The study aimed to investigate the subclinical involvement of cardiac functions in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's (CD) according their activity status by two‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE). Methods This prospective included 72 consecutive IBD 93 age‐ sex‐matched healthy controls (HC).

The closure of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) using transseptal puncture has particular advantages and disadvantages. Thus, should be re-evaluated in detail.
This study aimed to show the relationship between serum paraoxonase 1 level and epicardial fat tissue thickness.Two hundred seven patients without any atherosclerotic disease history were included in this cross-sectional observational study. Correlation analysis was performed determine correlation thickness, which measured by echocardiography level. Also patients' clinical laboratory findings of (PON 1) thickness. Pearson Spearman test used for analysis.No linear thickness PON found...
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a progressive disease, and valve replacement-the only treatment option-should be performed after it becomes symptomatic before irreversible myocardial damages develop. Surgical replacement recommended in patients with very severe AS (VSAS), even if they are asymptomatic. However, there no detailed study on the effect of transcatheter aortic implantation (TAVI) VSAS. Our aim this to show feasibility safety TAVI VSAS.A total 505 consecutive AD who underwent our center...
