A Rare Cause of Pacemaker Failure: Interatrial Block
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013)
Pacemaker and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) systems are useful in detection and differentiation of many symptomatic and asymptomatic arrhythmias. In this report, we described a rare condition that caused ...
Early left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction demonstrated by myocardial performance index and tissue Doppler imaging in psoriasis patients: Early deterioration of cardiac functions in psoriasis
(Cardiology Academic Press, 2013)
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated disease and associated with a higher prevalence of cardiovascular problems. In the present study, left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic functions in ...
The impact of stenting on coronary blood flow in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Cardiology Academic Press, 2013)
INTRODUCTION: In patients with ST segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI), primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been shown to be superior to thrombolytic therapy for the restoration of normal ...
Association of gamma-glutamyl transferase activity with coronary risk factors
(Cardiology Academic Press, 2013)
BACKGROUND: The association of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity with oxidative processes, which play an important role in atherogenesis, has been demonstrated in clinical studies. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the ...
Evaluation of biatrial size and functions by different echocardiographic parameters in patients with acute coronary syndromes
(Springer, 2013)
After acute coronary syndromes (ACS), cardiac remodelling affecting not only ventricles but also both atria is an important problem associated with an increased risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, it is ...
Multiple vascular anomalies in a patient with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2013)
…
The relationship of coronary flow to neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Pioneer Bioscience Publ Co, 2013)
Purpose: It has been known that inflammatory mechanisms play an important role in the coronary artery disease. Our aim in this study was to investigate the relationship between the neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio and ...
A Forgotten Guidewire Causing Intracardiac Multiple Thrombi With Paradoxical and Pulmonary Embolism

Evaluation of the Relationship Between Arterial Blood Pressure, Aortic Stiffness and Serum Endothelin-1 Levels in Patients with Essential Hypertension
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013)
This study has attempted to evaluate the relationship between aortic stiffness, blood pressure (BP) and serum endothelin-1 (ET-1) levels in patients with essential HT. Totally 152 subjects, consisting of 103 patients ...
