The role of protein Z and protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor polymorphisms in the development of prosthetic heart valve thrombosis
(2017)
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY: Protein Z (PZ) is a vitamin K-dependent factor that is synthesized mainly by the liver. It acts as an activator of serpin, the protein Z-dependent inhibitor (ZPI), which inhibits factor Xa. ...
Association of vitamin D deficiency with arterial stiffness in newly diagnosed hypertension
(NLM (Medline), 2021)
OBJECTIVE: Vitamin D has beneficial effects on vascular endothelial function, blood pressure (BP) and arterial stiffness. Arterial stiffness increases in early-stage hypertensive patients and it is a strong predictor of ...
Impact of intracoronary adenosine on myonecrosis in patients with unstable angina pectoris undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
(Springer, 2015)
Background In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of prophylactic intracoronary adenosine administered during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to unstable angina pectoris on myonecrosis by measuring ...
Ultra-low-dose left ventricular injection-guided computed tomographic angiography prior to transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A novel technique for imaging
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2019)
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has evolved as a novel procedure for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Since large-diameter catheters (18-24 F) are required for TAVI procedures, procedural evaluation ...
The effects of preoperative non-invasive cardiac tests on delay to surgery and subsequent mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture
(IOS Press, 2016)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of preoperative cardiac tests on the surgical treatment plan and subsequent effects on mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture. METHODS: In this retrospective study, 116 patients ...
Successful transcatheter mitral valve replacement in a patient with bioprosthetic valvular degeneration and severe regurgitation
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2019)
The implantation of aortic transcatheter heart valves has been successfully performed throughout the world in hundreds of patients with severe dysfunction of a degenerated mitral bioprosthesis or those at high surgical ...
Measurement of strain imaging, troponin-i and brain natriuretic peptide levels in radiotherapy-induced cardiac injury
(Akad Doktorlar Yayınevi, 2016)
Radiotherapy (RT) of the thorax can damage the pericardium, myocardium, heart valves, and coronary vessels, with the pericardium being the most frequently damaged. The objectives of this study were to evaluate RT-induced ...
Assessment of repolarization abnormalities in baseline electrocardiograms of patients with myocarditis
(Tübitak Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2017)
Background/aim: Myocarditis in the acute phase usually presents with sinus tachycardia but many other arrhythmias might be seen as well. In this study we aimed to investigate repolarization abnormalities in baseline ECG ...
Comparing of efficacy of different self-assessment anxiety scales for predicting radial artery spasm during coronary interventions
(Ortadoğu Reklam Tanıtım Yayıncılık Turizm Eğitim İnşaat Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş., 2019)
Objective: Radial artery spasm (RAS), is a major drawback for the routine use of radial access during coronary interventions and anxiety is a well-documented predictor of RAS. In this study, we aimed to assess the relationship ...
A totally extruded pacemaker
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2015)
Total extrusion of a pacemaker generator is an extremely rare and potentially fatal complication of pacemaker implantation. An 82-yearold female patient was brought to our out-patient clinic by relatives who had noticed ...
