Which Is Responsible for Cardiac Autonomic Dysfunction in Non-Diabetic Patients with Metabolic Syndrome: Prediabetes or the Syndrome Itself
(2016)
Aims: Cardiac autonomic dysfunction (CAD) is associated with both prediabetes and metabolic syndrome (MS). Heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate turbulence (HRT) are reliable 24-h Holter-ECG findings of cardiac ...
Plasma Osteopontin Concentration is Elevated in Patients with Coronary Bare Metal Stent Restenosis
(2018)
Objective: Osteopontin is a component of atherosclerotic lesions, secreted by monocytes, macrophages and endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells, which together are responsible for neointimal proliferation. We examined ...
Comparison of Carvedilol and Metoprolol for Preventing Contrast-Induced Nephropathy after Coronary Angiography
(2015)
Aims: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is one of the most common causes of hospital-acquired acute renal failure. Oxidative stress and vasoconstriction might play key roles in its pathogenesis. In a few experimental ...
Epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma homocysteine in patients with metabolic syndrome and normal coronary arteries
(2014)
Background: Increased epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma homocysteine levels are associated with Metabolic Syndrome (MS) and coronary artery disease. The majority of patients with MS have subclinical or manifest ...
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 ...
Treatment-associated change in apelin concentration in patients with hypertension and its relationship with left ventricular diastolic function
(2017)
OBJECTIVE: We examined the change in apelin concentration and its relationship with left ventricular diastolic function in patients treated for hypertension.
METHODS: Ninety treatment-naive patients with newly diagnosed ...
Arrhythmogenic Evidence for Epicardial Adipose Tissue: Heart Rate Variability and Turbulence are Influenced by Epicardial Fat Thickness
(2015)
BackgroundEpicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a local source of various hormones, cytokines, and vasoactive substances affecting the myocardium. EAT contains abundant ganglionic plexi that interact with the autonomic nervous ...
Is there a relationship between resistin levels and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure?
(2018)
Objective: Resistin, a cysteine-rich peptide, is associated with atherosclerosis and diabetes. Resistin levels increase corresponding to coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure severity. Since resistin level tends ...
