Abstract. Background. Periodontal disease (PD) has been recognized as a risk factor for systemic diseases, but its involvement in the pathogenesis of coronary artery (CAD) remains debated. Objectives. We sought to evaluate potential relations between severity PD, inflammatory response and angiographic lesions extent patients with stable CAD. Design. A total 131 subjects referred our centre angiography were evaluated presence extension CAD, then divided into two groups, one (cases, n = 85)...
Background: The incremental role of bedside tissue Doppler echocardiography and B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP) over the clinical judgment has been recently reported in emergency diagnosis congestive heart failure with a normal left ventricular ejection fraction (HFNEF). However, how well does this diagnostic strategy be applicable setting atrial fibrillation is unknown. Objective: To investigate usefulness BNP HFNEF elderly patients permanent, nonvalvular fibrillation. Methods: Forty‐one...
Clopidogrel responsiveness (CR) following a loading dose (LD) predicts thrombotic events after percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Some of the mechanisms involved in large inter-individual variability CR may be varied. We therefore postulated that there an intra-individual CR. Two hundred and one patients receiving long-term therapy with aspirin clopidogrel drug-eluting stents PCI were prospectively included this monocentre study along any patient re-admitted within 12 months...
Background: Tissue Doppler echocardiography provides a reliable noninvasive estimation of left ventricular (LV) filling pressures irrespective LV ejection fraction. However, the diagnostic accuracy E/Ea ratio has not been adequately determined in patients with suspected heart failure (HF) preserved systolic function acute care setting. Objective: To investigate emergency diagnosis decompensated HF function. Methods: Seventy fraction ≥45%, 32 (77 ± 12 years age), and 38 noncardiac cause...
Based on the hypothesis that it reflects left ventricular (LV) diastolic pressures, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is largely utilized as first-line diagnostic complement in emergency diagnosis of congestive heart failure (HF). The incremental value tissue Doppler echocardiography, a reliable noninvasive estimate LV filling has been reported patients with preserved ejection fraction and discrepancy between BNP levels clinical judgment, however, its validity such presence concentrations...
