Relation of platelet indices to severity of coronary artery disease in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2016)
Aim: We investigated the association between platelet indices and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent primary percutaneous coronary ...
The Relationship Between Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase Levels and Coronary Plaque Burdens and Plaque Structures in Young Adults With Coronary Atherosclerosis
(Wiley, 2014)
Background: Elevated gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels have been demonstrated to be associated with poor prognoses in patients with coronary artery disease. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a ...
Lower Muscle Strength and Increased Visceral Fat Associated With No-reflow and High Gensini Score in STEMI
(Sage Publications Inc, 2017)
Background: The impact of fat distribution, muscle mass, and muscle strength on no-reflow and severity of coronary artery disease in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Objective: ...
Platelet to lymphocyte ratio as a prognostic marker in primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2015)
We assessed the prognostic value of the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). Patients (n = 440) with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who underwent pPCI were divided ...
Relation of red cell distribution width to contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients undergoing a primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2015)
Background and aim We investigated the utility of the preprocedural red cell distribution width (RDW) for predicting contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction ...
Adult degenerative scoliosis associated with increased aortic diameter and plaque burden and composition
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2016)
Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between adult degenerative scoliosis (ADS) and the aortic plaques and diameters. Method: We included 219 patients with ADS and 100 control patients without ...
Predictors of poor coronary collateral development in patients with stable coronary artery disease: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelets
(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2015)
Objective: The heterogeneity in the degree of collateralization among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remains incompletely understood. We evaluated the predictors of poorly developed coronary collateral circulation ...
Increased Transforming Growth Factor- Levels Associated With Cardiac Adverse Events in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
(Wiley, 2015)
BackgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetic heart disease characterized by ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, and impaired ventricular relaxation. The exact mechanisms by which fibrosis is ...
Increased Epicardial Fat Thickness Correlates with Aortic Stiffness and N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
(Texas Heart Inst, 2016)
Epicardial fat, a metabolically active tissue, has emerged as a risk factor and active player in metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. We investigated epicardial fat thickness in patients who had sustained an acute ischemic ...
A Large Intra-Abdominal Hiatal Hernia as a Rare Cause of Dyspnea
(Hindawi Ltd, 2015)
Giant hiatal hernias, generally seen at advanced ages, can rarely cause cardiac symptoms such as dyspnea and chest pain. Here, we aimed to present a case with a large hiatal hernia that largely protruded to intrathoracic ...
