(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
To the Editor, We have read with great interest the article by Araiza-Garaygordobil et al. entitled “Thrombolytic treatment for acute prosthetic valve thrombosis: Is it better than surgery?” [1]. The authors reported a ...
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 ...
