Prognostic role of NLR, PLR, and LMR in patients with pulmonary embolism
(Assoc Basic Medical Sci Federation Bosnia & Herzegovina Sarajevo, 2020)
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. New biological markers are being investigated for estimating the prognosis of PE patients. Since PE is closely associated with inflammatory ...
Human neutrophil peptides 1-3 level in patients with acute myocardial infarction and its relation with coronary artery disease severity
(Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği, 2021)
Objective: Inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and clinical outcome of atherosclerosis. Among the various inflammatory factors, antimicrobial peptides, such as alpha-defensins, seem to contribute to the ...
Associations of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 and Fetuin-A With Coronary Plaque Burden and Plaque Composition in Young Adults
(Bmj Publishing Group, 2015)
Objective: The total burden of subclinical coronary artery disease (CAD) is significant among young adults. Serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and fetuin-A are established predictors of morbidity and mortality ...
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: ...
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 ...
An aortic dissection treated with left main coronary artery stent implantation
(Termedia Publishing House Ltd, 2014)
Retrograde coronary aortic dissection is a rare but dangerous complication of coronary angioplasty. Mostly seen in right coronary artery procedures, especially in chronic total oclussion lesions, and rarely seen in left ...
