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 ...
Association of Glomerular Filtration Rate With Slow Coronary Flow in Patients With Normal to Mildly Impaired Renal Function
(Sage Publications Inc, 2014)
We evaluated the association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and slow coronary flow (SCF) in patients with normal to mildly impaired renal function; 211 patients with angiographically proven SCF and 219 ...
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 ...
Associations of non-HDL-C and triglyceride/HDL-C ratio with coronary plaque burden and plaque characteristics in young adults
(Association of Basic Medical Sciences of FBIH, 2022)
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is uncommon in young adult patients. However, these patients have different risk factor profiles and high-risk coronary plaques are more common. The aim of this study was to examine the relations ...
