High sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels are associated with short- and long-term mortality in patients acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We investigated whether baseline hs-CRP burden of atherosclerosis assessed by SYNTAX score (SXScore).We enrolled 321 ACS who underwent angiography. The were divided into tertiles according to the SXScore: low SXScore (≤ 22), intermediate-high (≥ 23).Subjects tertile had higher serum compare (7.7 ± 3.4 mg/L versus 4.9 2.5 mg/L, P < 0.001). mean age...
Several studies have shown increased oxidative stress in patients with pre-diabetes and newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It has been proposed that initiates insulin resistance genetically predisposed individuals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the markers offspring T2DM.We examined 60 lean normoglycemic diabetics, 52 age, sex body mass index matched subjects without family history T2DM as controls. Anthropometric, biochemical carotid intima media thickness (IMT)...
Hyperhomocysteinemia is a known risk factor for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and related with the severity of artery disease (CAD). Previous studies have used less quantifiable scoring systems assessing CAD. Therefore, we aimed to assess relationship between homocysteine levels SYNTAX score (SXscore), which currently more widely grade CAD.A total 503 patients adiagnosis ACS were examined angiographically SXscore. The divided into three groups according SXscore; Group 1 low SXscore (≤ 22), 2...
Increased red cell distribution width (RDW) is closely related to the poor prognosis and adverse events of cardiovascular diseases. We aimed investigate association serum RDW levels in-stent restenosis (ISR) after coronary stenting with bare-metal stent in patients stable artery disease. A total 251 (age 62 ± 11 years, 69% male) a history who underwent control angiography (128 ISR 123 without ISR) were enrolled into study. Laboratory parameters measured before angiography. was defined as...
Reduced baseline coronary flow in an infarct-related artery (IRA) before a primary percutaneous intervention (PPCI) increases mortality patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Increased neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio has been linked to poor clinical outcomes STEMI. We investigated whether the N/L ratio, as measured at admission, was associated IRA patency mechanical reperfusion STEMI undergoing PPCI.A total of 404 who had undergone PPCI on single culprit were enrolled...
We aimed to elucidate the relationship between mild moderate renal impairements and burden of atherosclerosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A total 380 ACS were included study. Gensini SYNTAX scores also calculated. Kidney function was classified based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) into stage 1: eGFR >90, 2: 60 89, 3: 30 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 . higher stages 3 than 1. Also, number diseased vessels, critical lesions (>50 70%), left main disease,...
We aimed to investigate the association between neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and coronary artery ectasia (CAE). The study included 198 patients who had undergone angiography for suspected disease (CAD). were divided into following 4 groups: group 1, 44 with normal arteries; 2, 61 CAD; 3, 40 isolated CAE; 4, 53 CAE coexisting CAD. Neutrophil–lymphocyte was significantly lower in 1 than other groups higher 4. Patients neutrophil counts lymphocyte CAD similar terms of NLR, count, count. In...
Background Endothelial dysfunction is one of the main pathological processes hypertension. The association serum pentraxin‐3 (PTX3) levels and endothelial becomes a more interesting scientific research issue due to high potential PTX3 as diagnostic prognostic biomarker. We aimed investigate relationship between flow‐mediated dilation results in patients with dipper non‐dipper Methods This study included 90 hypertensive were divided into two groups based on 24 hours ambulatory blood pressure...
In our study, we aimed to find simple, useful biomarkers in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction predict coronary artery severity.Between May 2022 and December 2022, diagnosed according the European cardiology guidelines were included study. The Synergy between PCI Taxus Cardiac Surgery score was calculated determine severity of disease. These classified into two groups Surgery≥23 Surgery<23 scores. Biochemical markers such as platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio...
Objectives Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is a condition characterized by exercise-induced chest pain that occurs considering normal coronary angiogram. We aimed to investigate the total serum antioxidant capacity (TAC) and biventricular global functions using echocardiography in patients with CSX. Patients methods The study population included 55 typical anginal symptoms positive exercise stress test, or ischemia myocardial perfusion scintigraphy arteries detected angiographically, 49 healthy...
In the present study, we aimed to investigate relationship between NT-proBNP and SYNTAX score, which is a measure of complexity coronary artery disease.We enrolled 405 consecutive patients with myocardial infarction who underwent angiographic examination. Patients were divided into 3 groups according their scores. Those score ≤22 included in low group (LSTX), those 23–32 intermediate (ISTX), ≥33 high (HSTX).NT-proBNP levels found be significantly higher HSTX compared other (P < 0.001) ISTX...
Abstract Background Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) procedures are prone to complications. In our study, we investigated the effect of body mass index (BMI) on CIED‐related Methods 1676 patients who had undergone CIED surgery (de novo implantation, system upgrade, generator change, pocket revision or lead replacement) at two heart centers in Turkey and met study criteria were included study. For analysis primary secondary endpoints, classified as non‐obese (BMI < 25 kg/m 2 ),...
Catheter rupture during coronary angiography is very rare complication. Generally, this broken catheter piece can be removed with a snareloop, but sometimes in cases where the large diameter, it may not caught snareloop. In case, that could snare loop was by catching manual using 0.014 inch guide wire.
