Comparison of inflammatory biomarkers for detection of coronary stenosis in patients with stable coronary artery disease
(Verduci Publisher, 2013)
BACKGROUND: the objective of the current study was to evaluate the role of various inflammatory biomarkers in detection of coronary stenosis in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and healthy people. METHODS: ...
Decreased heart rate variability in irritable bowel syndrome has no effect on carotid intima-media thickness and pulse wave velocity
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2013)
Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a subgroup of functional somatic
disorders, may be associated with autonomic dysfunction (AD). Heart rate variability
(HRV), a measure of autonomic dysfunction, may predict ...
Pleiotropic effects of HDL subfractions and HDL-associated enzymes on protection against coronary artery disease
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015)
Objective High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are inversely related to the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Alterations in HDL-C subclass distribution and HDL-associated enzyme activities may be more ...
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 ...
The relation between carotid intima media thickness and serum osteoprotegerin levels in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2014)
Aim: This study was designed to evaluate carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) and serum osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in comparison to healthy controls and to investigate factors ...
The relationships of isolated coronary artery ectasia with urotensin 2 levels, hypertension and other atherosclerotic risk factors
(Carbone Editore, 2015)
Aims: Isolated coronary artery ectasia (ICAE) is characterized with ectasia of the coronary arteries due to inflammation, atherosclerosis and positive vascular remodelling without concomitant stenosis. Urotensin II (UII) ...
Relationship of osteoprotegerin to pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in rheumatoid arthritis patients
(Springer Heidelberg, 2016)
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is considered an important biomarker in cardiovascular (CV) disease. CV disease is the most common cause of mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a consequence of accelerated ...
Endocan levels and subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
(Sage Publications Inc, 2016)
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. A major cause of morbidity and mortality in SLE is accelerated atherosclerosis. Endothelial-specific molecule 1 (endocan) is a potential ...
