<h3>Abstract</h3> A ubiquitous finding in cognitive science across a wide variety of tasks is that humans tend to slow down after making an error. The dominant account this post error slowing people engage adaptive control and are simply more cautious However, explanation challenged by the fact that, although slower, accuracy typically does not improve following Errors negatively impact processing, but characterizing nature error-based impairments has been challenge standard paradigms. Here,...
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are known to be potentially effective in regeneration of damaged tissue. We aimed assess the effectiveness intracoronary administration ADSCs reducing infarction area and improving function after acute transmural myocardial (MI) a porcine model.ADSCs were obtained from each pig's abdominal subcutaneous fat tissue by simple liposuction. After 3 passages 14-days culture, 2 million injected into coronary artery 30 min MI. At baseline 4 weeks ADSC injection,...
Background We investigated the sex‐specific variations in distal radial access (DRA)–associated outcomes, as well factors influencing these by utilizing a comprehensive real‐world registry. Methods In this post‐hoc analysis of KODRA (Korean Prospective Registry for Evaluating Safety and Efficacy Distal Radial Approach) trial, we selected 4608 patients who underwent successful coronary procedures, including percutaneous intervention or angiography, via DRA. Primary end points were overall DRA...
Background/Aims Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life-threatening complication after acute embolism (APE) and associated with substantial morbidity mortality. This study aimed to investigate the incidence of CTEPH APE in Korea determine echocardiographic predictors CTEPH. Methods Among 381 patients confirmed by chest computed tomography (CT) between January 2007 July 2013, 246 consecutive available data were enrolled this study. was defined as persistent right...
Accurate volume measurement is important in the management of patients with congestive heart failure or renal insufficiency. A bioimpedance analyser can estimate total body water litres and has been widely used clinical practice due to its non-invasiveness ease results interpretation. To change impedance data volumetric data, analysers use equations derived from healthy subjects, which may not apply other conditions. Bioelectrical vector analysis (BIVA) was developed overcome dependence on...
Background The prognostic value of the glycemic control level, as measured using glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in prediabetic patients with acute coronary syndrome is still undetermined. aim this study was to demonstrate influence HbA1c level at admission on incidence major adverse cardiac events (MACE) ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous intervention (PCI). Methods and results Using data from Korea Working Group Myocardial Infarction...
It is unclear whether high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level predicts cardiovascular events and has a protective effect in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergo- ing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) statin treatment.
Abstract Stent thrombosis (ST) is a fatal complication after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The association between P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) level and stent occurrence remains unclear. Based on the multicenter, observational PTRG-DES (Platelet function genoType-Related long-term proGnosis in DES-treated patients) registry of patients with drug-eluting stents (DES) implantation, total 11,714 PRU values were analyzed. We sought to identify predictors early (EST) compared primary...
BACKGROUND We evaluated the impact of normal vs. high presenting blood pressure (BP) on clinical outcomes and cardiac function in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS In 11,292 patients, in-hospital mortality major adverse events (MACE; all-cause death, nonfatal MI, or any revascularization) during follow-up were compared between (≥100mm Hg ≤139mm Hg) (≥140mm systolic BP at presentation. RESULTS Compared to BP, had significantly higher (1.5% 3.7%; P &lt; 0.001),...
Purpose: Thiazolidinediones are insulin-sensitizing agents that reduce neointimal proliferation and the adverse clinical outcomes associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients diabetes mellitus (DM).There is little data on whether or not low dose pioglitazone reduces outcomes.Materials Methods: The study population included 121 DM artery disease they were randomly assigned to 60 taking 15 mg of daily addition their diabetic medications 61 placebo after index procedure...
Abstract Introduction Risk factors of embolic stroke (ES) after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation have not been fully elucidated especially among the Asian subjects, particularly regarding epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in cardiac imaging. We aimed to assess incidence ES during a long‐term follow‐up period AF and identify risk associated with postablation ES, specifically focusing on EAT. Methods Results enrolled patients who experienced control subjects from consortium registries three...
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is recommended for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients even when the patient must be transported to a PCI-capable hospital. This study aimed evaluate long-term clinical outcomes of STEMI who were transferred primary PCI compared arrived directly hospitals.A total 3,576 with less than 12 h symptom onset-to-door time from Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry divided into transfer (n = 2,176) and direct-arrival...
Objectives Obesity is a well-known cardiovascular disease risk factor. We evaluated the relationship between waist–hip ratio (WHR), as surrogate marker of central obesity, and clinical outcomes in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarctions (NSTEMIs) undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). Methods Between 2008 2010, NSTEMI who underwent PCI had available anthropometric data were divided into three groups according to their WHR tertile range. Clinical...
Statins reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality with dyslipidemia. Although generally well-tolerated, dose-dependent adverse events develop in 10%–15% patients. In addition, up to 3% patients have mildly elevated serum aminotransferase levels within the 1st year of therapy that are rarely associated symptoms. We report a case clinically significant hepatotoxicity after very brief course rosuvastatin statin-naive patient. A 76-year-old man presented new-onset right upper quadrant pain....
This study aimed to investigate the influence of uncertainty-related factors on health behavior individuals with coronary artery disease (CAD) based Mishel's uncertainty in illness theory (UIT).
The distal radial access (DRA), a potential alternative to the trans-radial approach (TRA), may offer advantages in terms of site complications due its smaller vessel diameter, especially for high bleeding risk (HBR) patients. This study aims investigate feasibility DRA HBR
Takayasu's arteritis can involve the ostia of coronary arteries. We report a patient with involving three large arteries who was successfully treated by percutaneous intervention (PCI) drug-eluting stent (DES) and had good clinical outcome after 12 months. A 37-year-old male unstable angina admitted to our cardiovascular center. The an aortic valve replacement metallic due severe regurgitation 7 years previously. Coronary angiography (CAG) showed 95% discrete eccentric luminal narrowing at...
We aimed to investigate if left ventricular electromechanical delay (LVEMD) prolongation predicts trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity (TIC) in breast cancer patients.LVEMD on serial echocardiograms could be an indicator of subclinical TIC.We included 237 patients receiving trastuzumab chemotherapy, who underwent echocardiography at baseline and 6 12 months after initiation. LVEMD was defined as the time from electrical activation myocardial contraction. TIC ejection fraction (LVEF) worsening...
