Resembling left ventricular false tendon in a father and his daughter
(Hindawi Ltd, 2018)
Left ventricular false tendons (LVFTs) are linear fibrous or fibromuscular bands stretching across left ventricular cavity. Although LVFTs have been associated with various heart pathologies and investigated embryologically ...
Is the presence of left atrial diverticulum associated with recurrence in patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation?
(2019)
INTRODUCTION: Catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) has been a major cornerstone in the management of AF. Despite promising advances in CA techniques, long-term results reveal a high rate of recurrence after ...
Rationale, design, and methodology of the EPIC (epidemiology of polypharmacy and potential drug-drug interactions in elderly cardiac outpatients) study
(2019)
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of polypharmacy, inappropriate drug use, and drug-drug interactions (DDIs) in elderly patients presenting at outpatient cardiology clinics in Turkey.
Methods: ...
Outcomes of the novolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold in real world clinical practice
(Edizioni Minerva Medica, 2021)
BACKGROUND: Most of the current data regarding the use of bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) come from everolimus-eluting stent platforms. Adverse events with the everolimus-eluting BRSs which are the most comprehensively ...
Distorted assessment of left atrial size by echocardiography in patients with increased aortic root diameter
(Springer, 2021)
Background: Left atrial (LA) size is frequently assessed by posterior-anterior linear measurement of LA (LAD P-A) in the parasternal long axis to expedite examination. Aging, changes in body surface area, and several ...
Angio-seal used as a bailout for incomplete hemostasis after dual perclose ProGlide deployment in transcatheter aortic valve implantation
(Texas Heart Institute, 2022)
Background: The failure rate of vascular closure devices remains a significant cause of major vascular complications in contemporary transcatheter aortic valve implantation practice. Methods: This research aimed to evaluate ...
Usefulness of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio for predicting acute pericarditis outcomes
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022)
Background In daily practice, C-reactive protein (CRP) may be used to predict recurrence and treatment response in patients with acute pericarditis; however, the predictive role of CRP might be insufficient for clinical ...
Impact of valve surgery on serum osteopontin levels in patients with mitral regurgitation
(Karger, 2015)
Objective: Osteopontin (OPN), a sialoprotein present within atherosclerotic lesions, especially in calcified plaques, is linked to the progression of coronary artery disease and heart failure. We assessed the impact of ...
Is bioresorbable vascular scaffold acute recoil affected by baseline renal function and scaffold selection?
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd., 2016)
Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and acute post-scaffold recoil (PSR) in patients undergoing bioresorbable scaffold (BVS) implantation. ...
Impact of aortic stiffness on the frequency of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation recurrences
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)
Background The relationship between arterial stiff ness (AS) and atrial fi brillation (AF) incidence is well-known. In this study we aimed to investigate the relationship between AS parameters and AF occurence as well as ...
