Relationship between serum osteopontin level and atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients undergoing cryoballoon catheter ablation
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2017)
Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Atrial fibrosis augments recurrence rate following AF catheter ablation. Osteopontin is ...
Evaluation of the relationship between hemoglobin levels and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction risk score in patients with non-st elevation acute coronary syndrome
(2016)
Introduction: The relationship between hemoglobin (Hb) levels at admission and the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) risk score in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS) was investigated. ...
A case of myocardial muscular bridging causing severe hypotension during exercise-electrocardiography test
(2016)
Outlining the severity of the myocardial bridge (MB) is a critical step for selecting the appropriate option among medical, surgical, or angioplasty-based treatments. Invasive treatments are usually preferred if ...
Assessment of 25-OH vitamin D levels and abnormal blood pressure response in female patients with cardiac syndrome X
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2016)
Objective: Vitamin D deficiency is associated with coronary artery disease, hypertension, heart failure, endothelial dysfunction, and metabolic syndrome. The pathophysiology of cardiac syndrome X (CSX) involves many pathways ...
Tek çıkış noktasından kaynaklı farklı PVC'lerin başarılı tedavisi
(2016)
Farklı bir merkezde prematür erken ventriküler vuru (PVC)’ları nedeniyle ablasyon tedavisi uygulanmış olan, 31 yaşındaki kadın hasta çarpıntı şikayetiyle tarafımıza başvurdu. Ritm holterde 4 farklı morfolojiye sahip 8058 ...
Effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy on mitral valve geometry: A novel aspect as "reversed mitral remodeling"
(Springer, 2018)
Amelioration of the valvular geometry is a possible mechanism for mitral regurgitation (MR) improvement in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We aimed to establish the precise definition, incidence, ...
A novel predictor of radial spasm: Arterial stiffness
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2018)
ObjectiveIn this study, we aimed to assess the relationship between radial artery spasm (RAS) and arterial stiffness (AS) measured by the oscillometric method.Materials and methodsA total of 123 consecutive patients scheduled ...
Adjusting the QRS duration by body mass index for prediction of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: Does one QRS size fit all?
(Wiley, 2016)
Background: QRS duration (QRSd) is known to be affected by body weight and length. We tested the hypothesis that adjusting the QRSd by body mass index (BMI) may provide individualization for patient selection and improve ...
Changes in electrocardiographic p wave parameters after cryoballoon ablation and their association with atrial fibrillation recurrence
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)
Background: Changes in P wave parameters after circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) have been previously identified. In this study, we aimed to determine the changes in P wave parameters surface electrocardiogram ...
