Predictive Value of Hematologic Parameters for Detecting Asymptomatic Graft Rejection After Heart Transplant: Preliminary Results
(2015)
Objectives: Hematologic parameters, such as mean platelet volume, red-cell distribution width, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, have prognostic value in multiple cardiac conditions such as stable angina pectoris, acute ...
Coronary Artery Disease Detected by Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography is Associated with Red Cell Distribution Width
(2016)
Objective: Increased red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to retrospectively evaluate the relationship between CAD detected ...
Effects of Carvedilol Compared to Nebivolol on Insulin Resistance and Lipid Profile in Patients With Essential Hypertension
(2017)
Background and aim: Beta-blockers have unfavorable effects on metabolic parameters in hypertensive treatment. New generation beta-blockers with vasodilatory capabilities are superior to traditional beta-blockers, but studies ...
Inappropriate Shock and Battery Switching to "End of Life" in A Patient with Biventricular ICD During Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(2016)
Presence of a cardiac pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a relative contraindication to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Biventricular ICDs are often used in the treatment of advanced heart ...
Implantation of A Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy-Defibrillator Device in A Patient with Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava
(2015)
Presence of a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is generally clinically asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during central venous catheterization. However, PLSVC may cause technical difficulties during cardiac ...
The Effects of Niacin on Inflammation in Patients with Non-ST Elevated Acute Coronary Syndrome
(2015)
Background: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of niacin on high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and cholesterol levels in non-ST elevated acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) patients.
Methods: In ...
The effects of a low international normalized ratio on thromboembolic and bleeding complications in patients with mechanical mitral valve replacement
(2014)
Background: Mechanical heart valve replacement has an inherent risk of thromboembolic events (TEs). Current guidelines recommend an international normalized ratio (INR) of at least 2.5 after mechanical mitral valve replacement ...
The effect of raloxifene on left ventricular hypertrophy in postmenopausal women: A prospective, randomized, and controlled study
(2015)
Objective: In healthy women, there is a progressive age-related increase in myocardial mass that is not seen in their male counterparts and occurs primarily in postmenopausal women. Raloxifene is a selective estrogen ...
Determinants of New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Receiving CRT Mechanistic Insights From Speckle Tracking Imaging
(2016)
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the factors associated with the development of atrial fibrillation (AF) and to examine the impact of these factors for long-term outcome after cardiac resynchronization ...
Comparison of application of 2013 ACC/AHA guideline and 2011 European Society of Cardiology guideline for the management of dyslipidemias for primary prevention in a Turkish cohort
(2017)
OBJECTIVE: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a major global cause of death. The common approach in primary prevention of cardiovascular disease is to identify patients at high risk for cardiovascular disease. This ...
