Evidence suggests that low 25-OH vitamin D 25(OH)D concentrations may increase the risk of several cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes mellitus, obesity, myocardial infarction, heart failure and mortality. Recent studies suggested a possible relationship between deficiency increased carotid intima-media wall thickness calcification. We hypothesized be associated with coronary atherosclerosis plaque burden composition, investigated serum levels...
Introduction:The coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) has been associated with myocardial ischemia, infarction, life-threatening arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death and increased cardiovascular mortality similar to artery disease (CAD).Possible underlying mechanisms of CSFP are endothelial dysfunction, chronic inflammation, microvascular dysfunction diffuse atherosclerosis.Soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (sLOX-1) seems play an important role in the pathogenesis...
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) could be considered to a state of inflammation. Many inflammatory markers have been evaluated in the AMI setting so far. Presepsin (PSP) is novel biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis systemic inflammation that has not studied date. In this study, we aimed examine serum PSP levels patients with acute ST elevation (STEMI).Forty-eight STEMI fifty healthy controls without coronary artery disease, verified by angiography, were included study. Together routine...
Nowadays, clopidogrel and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) have become routinely applied therapies in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) with stenting.Numerous variables can interfere antiplatelet responsiveness, so we aimed to investigate the role of different associated ASA or resistance stable artery disease.A total 207 patients undergoing elective PCI were included analysis. All received a loading dose during procedure followed by dual therapy. Clopidogrel measured impedance...
Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is characterized by inappropriate dilation of the coronary vasculature. The underlying mechanisms CAE formation are not yet entirely known. A polymorphism in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene, which reduces eNOS activity, might be a risk factor for heart diseases. However, its role unknown. One most studied gene polymorphisms c.894G>T that results conversion Glu (GAG) to Asp (GAT) at position 298. In this study, we investigated potential association...
Introduction: Recently, many hematologic markers have identified as prognostic and diagnostic indicators in different acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. In particular, neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio (NLR) platelet (PLR) are recognized the diagnosis prognosis of ACS. this study, our aim was to investigate correlation between yield PLR NLR values other such troponin all ACS Material methods: 319 patients admitted hospital with 283 control were included study. Leukocyte, neutrophil,...
A rare case of Brucella pancarditis is reported in a 38-year-old male farmer who presented with heart failure. was diagnosed positive serology, and echocardiographic examination showed pericardial effusion, vegetation mycotic aneurysms on the aortic root. The development fistula between aorta right ventricle, dissection, subaortic ventricular septal defect, left pseudoaneurysm were observed. This illustrates that life-threatening cardiac complications may develop, even under aggressive...
Acute ingestion of large quantities alcohol is known to be able trigger acute myocardial infarction. A 19-year-old boy presented at the emergency department our hospital with complaints severe retrosternal chest pain. One night before this event, he had drunk amounts alcohol. The level in his blood was measured 0.59 grams per litre. 12-lead electrocardiogram showed elevations ST segment, averaging from 2 10 millimetres, leads V1-6, DI and aVL. Since consumption very common community,...
Introduction . Hypertension (HT) is a common serious condition associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The pathogenesis of HT multifactorial has been widely investigated. Besides the vascular, hormonal, neurological factors, inflammation plays crucial role in HT. Many inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein, cytokines, adhesion molecules have studied HT, which supported Presepsin (PSP) novel biomarker inflammation. Therefore, potential relationship between PSP was...
<b>Introduction: </b> Inflammation plays a key role in atherosclerosis, and discovering new biomarkers of inflammation is becoming important order to uncover the pathogenesis atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). Recent studies have focused on polymorphonuclear neutrophils. It has been suggested that human neutrophil peptide 1-3 (HNP1-3) proatherogenic. In this study, we aimed investigate associations between plasma HNP1-3 levels severity atherosclerosis via generally...
Complications of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), among which serious ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death are major importance, affect many individuals due to the high incidence MVP itself in community despite actual low these complications. The present study investigated distribution arrhythmias according their severity relationship with QT interval dispersion repolarization uncomplicated isolated (IMVP) cases. Fifty-eight IMVP patients, 33 patients accompanying tricuspid (TVP), compare its...
Abstract Introduction We aimed to compare the positive predictive values (PPV) and negative (NPV) of four cardiac troponin assays in diagnosis AMI Turkish population. Methods This study is an observational comparative study, which performed between 2012 2013 (527 patients). Troponin levels were measured with chemiluminescence Cobas T assay, immunofluorescence Triage I assay immunochromatographic Toyo assay. Results Sensitivity specificity immunofluorometric (Radiometer) are 56.82% 71.34%;...
Abstract Background Cardiac troponins are the recommended markers for detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). There is a controversy regarding their decision limits. In this study, our objective was to reveal cut-off values high-sensitive troponin T (hsTnT) AMI diagnosis in population and examine effect age gender on hsTnT values. Methods Patients who presented emergency department (ED) with chest pain were selected, only those patients admitted during first 3–6 h symptom onset...
In this study, we investigated the association between -786T/C polymorphism of endothelial nitric oxide (NOS3) gene in which thymidine is replaced by a cytosine at nucleotide -786 (rs 2070744) and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) patients with stable artery disease.286 having critical stenosis (> 95%) least one major epicardial vessel were included study. CCC was defined according to Rentrop classification (R). Patients R0-1 poor group subjects R2-3 assigned good group. The polymerase...

Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is characterized by inappropriate dilatation of the coronary vasculature. The mechanisms CAE are not well known. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) may make endothelial cells and smooth muscle more sensitive to effects hormone. In present study, we hypothesized that IGF-1 have an impact on formation aneurysm in arterial system, aimed investigate associations between presence serum levels patients undergoing angiography. study included 2.980 subjects elective...
