Bilirubin level is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy independent of blood pressure in previously untreated hypertensive patients
(Korean Soc Cardiology, 2014)
Background and Objectives: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), a sign of subclinical cardiovascular disease, is an important predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. the aim of our study was to determine the ...
The effect of different beta-mockers on vascular graft nitric oxide levels: comparison of nebivolol versus metoprolol
(W B Saunders Co Ltd, 2014)
Objectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the vasodilating beta-blocker nebivolol and the cardioselective beta-blocker metoprolol on nitric oxide (NO) levels at vascular graft endothelium and vasa ...
Epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma homocysteine in patients with metabolic syndrome and normal coronary arteries
(Bmc, 2014)
Background: Increased epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma homocysteine levels are associated with Metabolic Syndrome (MS) and coronary artery disease. the majority of patients with MS have subclinical or manifest ...
Multiple simultaneous venous and arterial thromboses in a patient with factor V Leiden disorder: detection by multislice computed tomography
(Akademiai Kiado Rt, 2015)
Arterial thrombosis is extremely rare in patients with factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation. Recent advances in multislice computed tomography (MSCT) technology facilitated diagnosis of thromboembolic events accurately without ...
Relation of angiographic thrombus burden with severity of coronary artery disease in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
(Int Scientific Literature, Inc, 2015)
Background: We planned to investigate the relationship of thrombus burden with SYNTAX score in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Material/Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 780 patients who underwent ...
The role of urotensin II and atherosclerotic risk factors in patients with slow coronary flow
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2016)
Background: Slow coronary flow (SCF) is an angiographic finding characterized with delayed opacification of epicardial coronary arteries without obstructive coronary disease. Urotensin II (UII) is an important vascular ...
Increased pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with ulcerative colitis
(Springer, 2013)
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized with chronic, progressive inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. the association of UC with cardiovascular disease is still a matter of debate. the aim of this study was to ...
Increased pulse-wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013)
Objective. Vascular risk factors frequently coexist with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in both men and women, suggesting that atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction may play a major role in the development of ...
Characterization of echocardiographic measures of cardiac structure and function in healthy octogenarians
(Wiley, 2014)
Background: Currently, there is not enough echocardiographic information regarding aging-associated changes in the octogenarian population. We aimed to characterize echocardiographic measures of structure and function among ...
Arterial stiffness measured via carotid femoral pulse wave velocity is associated with disease severity in COPD
(Daedalus Enterprises Inc, 2014)
BACKGROUND: Patients with COPD face an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and increased cardiac mortality. Carotid femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) is a validated measure of arterial stiffness, a well recognized ...
