Serum osteoprotegerin level is independently related to subclinical left atrial mechanical function in patients with hypertension and diabetes
(Urban & Vogel, 2020)
Objectives Previous studies showed that subclinical abnormal left atrial (LA) function could be diagnosed with LA speckle tracking evaluation long before chamber enlargement. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a member of the tumor ...
Assessment of cardio-ankle vascular index in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm: an observational study
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020)
Objectives Arterial stiffness is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events. the aim of this study is to investigate arterial stiffness by cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) in patients with abdominal aortic ...
Left atrial volume index and pulmonary arterial pressure predicted MACE among patients with STEMI during 8-year follow-up: experience from a tertiary center
(Urban & Vogel, 2020)
Background It is important to identify patients that are at high risk following primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI) for the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Left ventricular ...
Epicardial adipose tissue is associated with increased systolic pulmonary artery pressure in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(Wiley, 2020)
Objectives: Pulmonary hypertension (PHT) is one of the essential predictors of mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is thought that PHT is due to vasoconstriction secondary to hypoxia caused by ...
Mitral annular calcification predicted major cardiovascular events in patients presented with acute coronary syndrome and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
Background: Despite the presence of several clinical studies evaluating the association of atherosclerosis and MAC, no data is present regarding the value of MAC in predicting CV adverse events in patients with acute ...
Increased epicardial adipose tissue is associated with the extent of aortic dissection
(Digital Commons Bepress, 2020)
Background: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a biologically active organ that has endocrine and paracrine functions. Endothelial dysfunction, systemic, and local inflammatory response, due to bio-active molecules produced ...
Increased epicardial fat tissue thickness predicts advanced interatrial block among hypertensive patients
(Churchill Livingstone Inc Medical Publishers, 2020)
Background: Recent studies demonstrated that epicardial fat tissue (EFT) was associated with prevalent AF and recurrences following the catheter ablation. We evaluated the value of EFT for the prediction of advanced ...
A new scoring system detecting the supraventricular tachycardia inducibility and radiofrequency ablation with high specificity in electrophysiological study
(Digital Commons Bepress, 2020)
Aim: the relationship between arrhythmia induction and ablation with palpitation characteristics has been demonstrated in electrophysiological study (EPS) patients. However, there is insufficient data on palpitation ...
Preoperative blood urea nitrogen-to-left ventricular ejection fraction ratio is an independent predictor of long-term major adverse cardiac events in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery
(Digital Commons Bepress, 2020)
Background: Long-term mortality rate following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedure is still considered to be high despite advances in surgical techniques and perioperative management. Identifying high-risk ...
An echocardiographic predictor of contrast-induced nephropathy following percutaneous coronary intervention in acute coronary syndrome: aortic valve sclerosis
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
Objective. Aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) is closely related to endothelial dysfunction. the association of AVS with contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is unknown. We planned to investigate the relationship of AVS besides ...
