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 ...
Blood urea nitrogen is associated with long-term all-cause mortality in stable angina pectoris patients: 8-year follow-up results
(Russian Heart Failure, 2021)
Background Elevation of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) indicates renal dysfunction and is associated with increased mortality in cardiovascular diseases. We investigated the relationship between the BUN concentration measured ...
Is adiponectin elevation associated with left atrial remodeling and impaired mechanical functions? (a speckle tracking study)
(Russian Heart Failure, 2021)
Objectives Recent studies demonstrated that elevated adiponectin levels predicted an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke; however, a causal relationship is yet to be unknown. Reduced left atrium (LA) ...
FEV1 is independently related with impaired left atrial strain in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients: A speckle tracking study
(Wiley, 2021)
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. It is known that impaired forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) is one of the risk factors of cardiovascular disease. ...
Paradoxical association between lipoprotein cholesterol levels and left atrial function in hypertensive diabetic patients: A speckle tracking study
(Wiley, 2021)
Background Studies have shown that subclinical left atrial (LA) dysfunction can be diagnosed with two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE). Although low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a risk ...
Impaired left atrial mechanical functions as indicators for increased aortic root diameter in hypertensive and diabetic patients
(Urban & Vogel, 2021)
Objectives Previous studies have demonstrated that increased aortic root diameter (ARD) is frequently associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) events and is a predictor of stroke. Two-dimensional speckle tracking ...
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 ...
Effect of coronavirus disease-2019 infection on left atrial functions
(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2022)
Objective: Left atrial (LA) dysfunction is a crucial risk factor for cardiovascular events, and various pathologies may affect LA function. Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing global pandemic causing morbidity ...
Blood urea nitrogen to left ventricular ejection fraction ratio is associated with long-term mortality in the stable angina pectoris patients
(Verduci Editore, 2022)
OBJECTIVE: Left ventricle (LV) dysfunction remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and has prognostic significance. However, new prognostic indicators may be ...
Epicardial fat thickness is associated with retinopathy in patients with newly diagnosed hypertension
(Kare Publishing, 2021)
OBJECTIVE: Hypertensive retinopathy develops based on endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. Epicardial fat secretes various cytokines associated with endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, ...
