Abstract Background Although the pathophysiology of coronary slow flow (CSF) has not been fully elucidated, emerging data increasingly support potential role for subclinical diffuse atherosclerosis in etiology CSF. We aimed to investigate relationship between atherogenic indices and Methods 130 patients with CSF diagnosed according Thrombolysis Myocardial Infarction (TIMI)-frame count (TFC) method controls who had normal (NCF) were included this retrospective study. Atherogenic (atherogenic...
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice and a major cause of morbidity mortality. The upregulation TRP channels believed to mediate progression electrical remodelling arrhythmogenesis diseased heart. However, there limited data about contribution development AF. aim this study was investigate leukocyte gene expressions non-valvular atrial (NVAF) patients. included 47 NVAF patients sex age matched controls. mRNA extracted from blood samples,...
Platelets and clotting cascade play a major role in development of atrial thrombus patients with fibrillation. The mean platelet volume (MPV) reflects size is considered marker determinant function because larger platelets are hemostatically more reactive than normal size, increasing the propensity to thrombosis. We have investigated relationship between MPV left persistent A total 205 consecutive (men: 67.3%, women: 32.7%; age: 62.3 ± 12.8) who had fibrillation, undergone transesophageal...
As inflammation plays a significant role in the development of coronary artery disease, we hypothesized that there may be relation between systemic immune index (SII) and saphenous vein graft disease (SVGD). The study population consisted 716 consecutive patients who underwent elective angiography (CAG) >1 year after bypass grafting. were divided into 2 groups depending on extent SVG patency. SII value was significantly higher SVGD(+) group compared with SVGD(−) ( P < .001). In...
Reliable non-invasive new indices reflecting severity of rheumatic valve disease would be highly beneficial. Recently, presence fragmented QRS (fQRS) in ECG was accepted as a marker myocardial fibrosis. fQRS is defined the RSR' patterns such additional R wave (R'), notching or S 2 contiguous leads. Purpose our study to establish frequency isolated mitral stenosis compared with control group. We studied 193 patients and age/gender matched 97 healthy subjects. Patients were categorized...
Aim Although it is known that ankylosing spondylitis (AS) associated with cardiovascular complications, the extent of these complications has not been clearly demonstrated in young adult patients. We have therefore investigated myocardial diastolic functions, carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), and aortic elastic properties patients diagnosed AS.
