Abstract Background Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Novel markers insulin resistance progression atherosclerosis include triglycerides glucose index (TyG index), body mass (Tyg-BMI) metabolic score for (METS-IR). Establishing independent risk factors in-hospital death adverse cardiac cerebrovascular events (MACCE) patients with myocardial infarction (MI) remains critical. The aim study was to assess MACCE...
Aim: Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) has emerged as a strong marker of worse outcomes. We determined the association between PLR and clinical outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Methods: Five hundred twenty three were enrolled. Low (group 1, n = 349) was defined ≤124 high 2, 174) >124. Results: In-hospital 1-year mortality higher group 2. Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed moderate diagnostic value predicting in-hospital (PLR...
An 82-year-old man presented with a two-week history of increasing shortness breath and exercise intolerance. His medical included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension kidney disease. He had undergone left nephrectomy splenectomy for abdominal trauma
Albumin-to-globulin ratio (AGR) is emerged as a marker of impaired prognosis. We determined the predictive value AGR in patients with heart failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).999 HFrEF were enrolled. Rates 1-year all-cause mortality compared between quartiles (Q). Moreover, multivariate survival analysis Cox's regression model and receiver operating characteristic analyses performed.90-day was highest Q1. an independent predictor 90-day mortality. Receiver revealed moderate diagnostic...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) contributes to endocrine and metabolic complications for women worldwide. The aim of this study was establish the usefulness new anthropometric indices atherogenic in evaluation disorders, particular, glucose insulin abnormalities profiles with polycystic (PCOS). In study, a total 49 PCOS aged between 18 39 years were recruited. All patients tested fasting insulin, lipid parameters, oral-glucose administration, biochemical parameters. them underwent...
There has been a substantial increase in the use of radiocontrast-enhanced imaging studies past two decades (particularly computed tomography and coronary angiography). Sudden exposure to high levels iodide may result thyroid dysfunction (hyperthyroidism hypothyroidism alike). Although adverse-event rate is not very high, condition notable considering large number contrast-enhanced radiographic performed. Clinicians often have decide on most suitable diagnostic modality safest contrast...
Abstract Introduction Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is common complication in advanced lung disease. Echocardiography provides additional information and may be useful to assess PH probability. Objectives The usefulness of combination well‐known echocardiographic parameters detecting patients with disease referred for transplantation was evaluated. Methods study population consisted 37 consecutive idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), 20 chronic obstructive (COPD), 8 other interstitial...
TIMI risk score and GRACE model are widely available accepted scores for assessment in STEMI patients include predictors of poor outcomes. CHA2DS2-VASc is a validated predicting embolic/stroke with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Its components contribute to the worse prognosis following myocardial infarction. The advantage comparison other that it provides comprehensive, fast, simple method physicians evaluation requires no calculators or computers. Therefore, we have set out examine...
There is little published data on the association of platelet function and 25(OH)D concentration. We investigated associations between mean volume (MPV) concentration in patients with stable coronary artery disease. Study population was divided into three groups: group 1-25(OH)D < 10 ng/mL (N = 22), 2-25(OH)D 10-20 42), 3-25(OH)D > 20 14). groups shared similar demographics. MPV values were highest 1, moderate 2, lowest 3 (11.1 vs 10.4 9.8 fL P 0.001). a negative correlation (R - 0.38, ROC...
Abstract Background Weight loss (WL) is an independent predictor of mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Moderate WL recommended for overweight or obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). The aim this study was to assess the prognostic impact body weight reduction on survival both HF reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and DM. Methods comprised HFrEF at outpatient clinic. defined as a least 7.5% during 6 months. Clinical features 1 year were analysed DM groups. Multivariate regression...
Despite high efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), in-stent restenosis proves to be a significant problem therapy. Restenosis concerns around 30% patients. Studies have suggested that is initiated by cells which participate in intense inflammatory reaction caused stent implantation. Atherosclerotic plaque rupture during implantation and PCI-associated injury the vessel wall lead hemorrhage release various cytokines. They are probably responsible for quick recurrence vascular...
