Background:We sought to examine the relationship between health-related quality of life (HRQL) and a first emergency rehospitalization mortality in patients with heart failure (HF) having wide variation ventricular ejection fraction functional status.Methods: Prospective study conducted 394 admitted for HF-related emergencies at 4 Spanish hospitals.Baseline HRQL was measured generic questionnaire, Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short Form Survey (SF-36), an HF-specific instrument, Minnesota...
2-2′-Azo-bis(2-amidinopropane) thermolysis induces luminol luminescence. The luminescence intensity is quenched by SOD, catalase, Trolox and human blood serum. However, the time course of light profile different for additives. In particular, quenching efficiency serum decreases with after addition. Double experiments show that SOD are not competitive quenchers, while a simple competition can be established between in trapping common intermediate. From kinetic analysis data it concluded that,...
To study the factors associated with choice of therapy and prognosis in octogenarians severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS).Prospective, observational, multicenter registry. Centralized follow-up included survival status and, if possible, mode death Katz index.Transnational registry Spain.We 928 patients aged ≥80 years AS.Aortic-valve replacement (AVR), transcatheter aortic-valve implantation (TAVI) or conservative therapy.All-cause death.Mean age was 84.2 ± 3.5 years, only 49.0% were...
Background— In older adults hospitalized for heart failure, a poor score on comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is associated with worse prognosis during hospitalization and at 1 month after discharge. However, the association between CGA long-term mortality uncertain. Methods Results— This prospective study of 487 patients aged ≥75 years admitted decompensated failure. At discharge, (range, 0–10) was calculated based limitation in activities daily living, mobility limitation,...
Abstract Introduction and Objectives Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent condition, with projections indicating it will increase in the future. Various ablation techniques exist to try eliminate arrhythmia, but problem of recurrences need for reinterventions are not uncommon. We markers predict which patients benefit from these procedures recur despite our efforts. strain have emerged as novel tool assessing function degree atrial fibrosis, could improve patient selection success...
Abstract Background Right ventricular (RV) function is a potent marker of morbidity and mortality in heart failure other cardiovascular diseases. However, the prognostic value right myocardial aortic stenosis (AS) treated with percutaneous valve implantation (TAVI) not well defined. Objetive In present study, we aim to analyze impact two relevant RV parameters, TAPSE longitudinal strain, measured pre-TAVI on medium- long-term elderly patients severe AS. Methods We included 180 consecutive AS...
Objectives To estimate the prevalence of polypharmacy among community-dwelling adults in UK and determine its association with mortality, hospitalization, adverse drug reactions falls at one five years. also effect on outcomes different patient groups. Methods A retrospective cohort study was carried out using 1000 patients aged 75 years above from Clinical Practice Research Datalink. The periods for one- five-years analysis were January 2010-December 2010 2014 respectively. Sociodemographic...
Objective To compare total plasma antioxidant capacity and selected individual antioxidants in patients with varying degrees of severity sepsis. Design A prospective, observational, consecutive case study. Setting 16-bed intensive care unit (ICU) a university teaching hospital. Interventions None. Patients Forty-six healthy controls, ten ICU patients, nine systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), 11 septic 14 shock patients. Plasma was obtained scheduled for minor surgery immediately...
Abstract The effects of an ethanolic extract Cuban red propolis were examined using the model acute hepatotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCL 4 ) in rats. Propolis at doses 5, 10 and 25 mg/kg i.p. decreased significantly activity alanine aminotransferase concentration malondialdehyde rat serum as well triglycerides liver which increased CCI ‐treated animals. An ethanol also reduced damage This effect was observed electron microscopy. According to our results it is concluded that...
Abstract The effect of ethanol on the activities key enzymes glycolytic pathway and two membrane functions related with fermentation, glucose uptake system, proton extrusion rate are examined. results indicate that ethanol, up to 2 M , does not cause any change velocity nor substantial in enzyme while fermentation is reduced by about 50%. In a cell extract 3 as well incubation yeast cells 4 caused considerable decrease pyruvate kinase hexokinase activities. Phosphofructokinase remained...
Abstract Aims Nutrition is an important determinant of health above the age 80 years. Malnutrition in elderly often underdiagnosed. The aim this study was to report prevalence and prognostic value malnutrition patients ≥80 years old with atrial fibrillation (AF) without anticoagulant therapy. Methods results We assessed nutritional status 4724 octogenarian diagnoses AF a single centre from Spain between 2014 2017 CONUT score. confirmed 2036 (43.1%). Anticoagulation prescription more frequent...
BACKGROUND Pigeon breeder's disease is an extrinsic allergic alveolitis in the lungs of sensitised people, caused by hypersensitivity reactions to inhaled pigeon antigens. Antigens from different sources animal are used for diagnostic purposes, with serum being most widely used. Bloom rarely used; very little known its antigenicity and performance, particularly when enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method, which popular test as it permits measurement antibody response. METHODS To (...
