(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 ...
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: ...
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 ...
Evaluation of adiponectin and lipoprotein(a) levels in cardiac syndrome x
(Urban & Vogel, 2015)
Aims. Low adiponectin and high lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are associated with endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, and coronary artery disease. Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is characterized by anginal symptoms, positive ...
Effect of pulmonary vein anatomy and pulmonary vein diameters on outcome of cryoballoon catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation
(Wiley, 2015)
BackgroundIn this study, we aimed to determine pulmonary vein (PV) variation patterns in patients undergoing cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) and their impacts on procedural success and recurrence and also ...
Predicting ventricular arrhythmias in cardiac resynchronization therapy: The impact of persistent electrical dyssynchrony
(Wiley, 2016)
BackgroundAlthough response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been conventionally assessed with left ventricular volume reduction, ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation ...
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 ...
Factor XIII Val34Leu polymorphism in patients with cardiac syndrome X
(Via Medica Journals, 2014)
Background: The aim of the study was to examine the frequency of factor XIII polymorphism among patients with cardiac syndrome X (CSX). Methods: This study was designed as a cross-sectional and observational study. Forty-eight ...
