Cardiac metastasis of great saphenous vein leiomyosarcoma
(Wiley, 2020)We present a case with cardiac metastasis of the great saphenous vein leiomyosarcoma (LMS) that presented to the emergency department with dyspnea and palpitations 2 months ago. In this patient, hemodynamic instability was ... -
Challenges in the management of pregnant patients with cardiovascular diseases
(Bmj Publishing Group, 2021)[Abstract Not Available] -
Clinical safety and efficacy of thrombolytic therapy with low-dose prolonged infusion of tissue type plasminogen activator in patients with intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2020)The patients with intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism who have acute right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and myocardial injury without overt hemodynamic compromise may be candidates for thrombolytic therapy. Alternative ... -
Comparison of aortic pressures and aortic elastic properties between patients with end-stage renal disease and healthy controls
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2019)Background: Current evidence indicates that vascular calcification plays an essential role in the development of cardiovascular diseases in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Arterial stiffness is a marker of increased ... -
A comprehensive review of the diagnosis and management of mitral paravalvular leakage
(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2020)Mitral paravalvular leaks (PVLs) commonly occur in patients with prosthetic valves. Paravalvular defects may be clinically inconsequential and may aggravate hemolysis or cause heart failure through regurgitation. Accordingly, ... -
Diagnosis, treatment & management of prosthetic valve thrombosis: the key considerations
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)Introduction: Prosthetic heart valve thrombosis is a life-threatening complication after valve replacement surgery. Although subtherapeutic anticoagulation is the main cause, there are many other conventional and esoteric ... -
Echocardiographic measurement of epicardial adipose tissue thickness in patients with microvascular angina
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2019)Introduction: Impaired coronary microcirculation, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction were reported etiological factors for microvascular angina (MVA). Recently, increased epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness ... -
Echocardiographic predictors of interatrial block in patients with severe chronic kidney disease
(Springer, 2020)Background Interatrial block (IAB), defined as a conduction delay between the right and left atrium, is manifested on the electrocardiogram as a prolonged P-wave duration. Large number of studies recently have been published ... -
Evaluation of potential long-term changes in endothelial functions and basic echocardiographic parameters in unilateral nephrectomy patients
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2017)Aim: Decreased nephron count may result in lower glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and cardiorenal injury in the absence of compensatory hyperfunction. In this study, we aimed to evaluate long-term effects of 50% nephron ... -
Evaluation of the potential predictors of embolism in patients with left atrial myxoma
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2019)Introduction: Cardiac myxomas are the most common primary intracardiac tumors. Although myxomas are histologically benign, they are potentially dangerous due to potential risk of systemic and cerebral embolism. In this ... -
Identification of mechanical prosthetic heart valves based on distinctive cinefluoroscopic and echocardiographic markers
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2019)The past 65 years have witnessed remarkable progress in the development of safe, hemodynamically favorable mechanical heart valves. Today, there are a large number and variety of prostheses in use and many prostheses have ... -
Increased epicardial adipose tissue thickness is associated with microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2021)Objective Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a cardiometabolic risk factor, and its possible relationship with hypertension has been previously reported. Microalbuminuria (MA) is associated with target-organ damage, ... -
Investigation of ICAM-1 levels in hypertensive patients with fragmented QRS complexes
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)Objective: Fragmented QRS (fQRS) detected on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) has been demonstrated to be a marker of myocardial fibrosis. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a protein which plays an important ... -
Investigation of mindin levels in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and QRS fragmentation on electrocardiography
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2018)Purpose: Mindin was associated with diabetic nephropathy, podocyte injury, colitis, allergic asthma, liver ischaemia and reperpusion injury and ischaemic brain injury. On the other hand, it was reported as a protective ... -
Kalp Yetersizliği Olan Hastalarda Dekompanse Oluşun Bir Belirteci Olarak Ortalama Trombosit Hacminin Önemi
(2019)Amaç: Konjestif kalp yetmezliği morbidite, bozulmuş yaşam kalitesi ve azalmış sağkalım ile ilişkili önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Konjestif kalp yetmezliği hastaları dekompanse olduklarında, artmış intra ve ekstraselüler ... -
Missed unroofed coronary sinus
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2019)Coronary sinus atrial septal defect (ASD) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly, which might be difficult to diagnose. In this report, we describe a patient with small secundum ASDs and an associated large coronary sinus ... -
Normal reference values for mechanical mitral prosthetic valve inner diameters and areas assessed by two-dimensional and real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography
(Springer, 2021)It was previously observed that two dimensional (2D) Doppler derived and real-time three-dimensional (RT-3D) directly measured valve areas were smaller than reported manufacturer sizes. It may be helpful to obtain the ... -
Presence of fragmented QRS is associated with increased epicardial adipose tissue thickness in hypertensive patients
(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2019)Background: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a cardiometabolic risk factor, and its possible relationship with hypertension has been reported previously. Fragmented QRS (fQRS) detected on electrocardiography (ECG) has ... -
Presence of fragmented QRS may be associated with complex ventricular arrhythmias in patients with essential hypertension
(Churchill Livingstone Inc., 2019)Background: Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs)are frequent in hypertensive patients. Myocardial fibrosis is one of the components of left ventricular hypertrophy secondary to hypertension. Fragmented QRS (fQRS)on electrocardiography ... -
