Relation of plasma fibrinogen levels with extent, severity, and complexity coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients stable angina pectoris (SAP) has not been adequately investigated. The aim this study was to evaluate whether level is associated complexity, extent assessed by SYNTAX (Synergy between percutaneous intervention TAXUS Cardiac Surgery) score (SS).We enrolled 134 consecutive SAP who underwent angiography. Baseline serum were measured, SS calculated from the population. classified...
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of diabetic foot care training delivered using Pecha Kucha (20*20) presentation method on knowledge, self-efficacy, and behavior levels patients with Type 2 diabetes. Conducted between December 10, 2023, October 7, 2024, this randomized controlled experimental included 125 individuals, 62 in group 63 control group. The received education method, while conventional education. Data were collected Patient Assessment Form, Diabetes Foot Knowledge...
We investigated the effect of long-term supraphysiologic doses anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) on atrial electromechanical delay (AEMD) in male bodybuilders. clearly demonstrated that consumption AAS is associated with higher values inter- and intra-AEMD healthy young
The aim of this study was to assess whether epicardial fat thickness (EFT) is associated with the severity heart failure in patients nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NICMP).The group composed 93 NICMP and38 age- and sex-matched healty individuals as control group. EFT identified during end-systole at point on free wall right ventricle.Patients had significantly lower mean than those (4.1 ± 0.8 vs. 6.1 1.8 mm, P < 0.001). thinnest New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III or...
Abstract Background In this study, we sought to investigate the relation of gamma‐glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels with significance coronary artery disease (CAD), clinical presentation, left ventricular (LV) function, and inflammatory activity. Methods A total 235 patients (mean age: 60.1 ± 10.5 years, 166 [70%] males) who had angiography were included in study. Patients CAD constituted study group (Group 1, n=189) insignificant or normal activity control 2, n=46). Results GGT higher Group...
Objectives: Previous studies showed the association between major adverse cardiovascular outcomes and both higher neutrophil lower lymphocyte counts. We aimed to investigate whether there is an neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) value development of coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO). Methods: A 274 CTO were included this study. Patients then classified according their Rentrop grades as either poor (Rentrop 0-1) or good 2-3). Clinical...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between an increase in arterial stiffness and development left ventricular hypertrophy essential hypertension patients.One hundred forty patients were included study. Patients divided into two groups based on echocardiographic measurements; with (n=70) without (n=70). criterion for accepted as intraventricular septum posterior wall thickness diastole 11 mm or above. Aortic values measured noninvasively by arteriography through brachial...
Fundamento: The role of papillary muscle function in severe mitral regurgitation with preserved and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction the method choice to evaluate PM have still been subjects controversy. Objectives: To compare between patients degenerative functional by using free strain method. Methods: 64 - 39 (DMR group) 25 (FMR 30 control (control were included study. Papillary was evaluated through from apical four chamber images anterolateral (APM) three posteromedial (PPM)....
In the developed countries, stroke is third most common cause of death. There are many data indicating that stents reduce risk embolism but there few publications assessing whether different stent designs can influence periprocedural complications.To determine effects open- and closed-cell on 1-month results carotid artery stenting (CAS).The study group consisted 290 consecutive patients (216 men 74 women, mean age 66.6 ±8.7 years). Neuroprotection with a distal protection device was used in...
The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients left (LA) myxoma.Thirty-six consecutive LA myxoma (10 men, mean age: 49.3 ± 15.7 years), who were operated on between March 2010 and July 2012, included retrospective study. Pre-operative electrocardiograms echocardiographic examinations each patient reviewed.Postoperative AF developed 10 patients, whereas there no evidence paroxysmal after resection remaining 26 patients....
Several clinical trials have assessed predictors for atrial fibrillation recurrence following cryoballoon catheter ablation. With these predictors, a practical and new scoring system can be developed to evaluate recurrence. The present study aimed analyze the predictive value of age, creatinine, ejection fraction-left atrium score potential ablation in patients with symptomatic paroxysmal or persistent fibrillation.We retrospectively analyzed records undergoing cath-eter was defined as an...
Cilostazol is a PDE3 inhibitor and used to treat peripheral arterial disease. There are few reports on the influence of cilostazol heart.The aim this study was assess effect right ventricular function pulmonary artery pressure.Forty patients with normal left ejection fraction mild or moderate hypertension were enrolled in study. Right assessed by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), fractional area change (FAC), tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), two-dimensional speckle-tracking...
The aim of present study is to evaluate the predictive value QTc dispersion, Tp-Te interval and Tp-Te/QT ratio for idiopathic monomorphic outflow tract ventricular tachycardia (VT) occurrence in patients with frequent premature complexes (PVCs).A total 180 (49.2 ± 13.6 years, 74 male) who had undergone PVC ablation between 01 January 2015 November 2018 constituted our population. Patients isolated without any VT recording on Holter recordings inducible at EPS were classified as group....
Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BVT) is a rare arrhythmia that generally observed in patients with catecholaminergic or digoxin overdose. Herein, we present case of BVT and electrical storm (ES) an acute ischemic heart failure patient typically induced by hypokalemia. The was invasive mechanical ventilator (MV) support hypokalemia related to respiratory alkalosis caused refractory despite intravenous (IV) potassium replacement. We also discuss our approach solve alkalosis.
A relation between the location of paravalvular leakage (PVL) and time to reoperation after mitral mechanical valve replacement was investigated.In an observational retrospective study plan, from 59 patients who underwent only 47 having clinical echocardiographic follow-up for five years were included into study. Depending on evaluation leak, divided Group 1 (Leaflet) 2 (Commissural). Demographics, preoperative variables, causes reoperation, period diagnosis PVL recorded. Unpaired t test or...
