High prevalence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome: Does the imbalance between estradiol and progesterone play a role?
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2015)Objective: Some similar factors, such as genetic susceptibility and subinflammation/autoimmunity, contribute to development of both polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT), suggesting a potential ... -
Evaluation of atrial electromechanical coupling times in hemodialysis patients
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2014)BackgroundThere are no definite data about the atrial electromechanical coupling times (AEMCT) in patients with end stage renal failure (ESRF). The aim of this study was to investigate the AEMCT in ESRF patients without ... -
Thrombus formation in the interrupted segment of the aorta
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2017)Interrupted aorta is a very rare heart defect in which there is a gap between the ascending and the descending thoracic aorta. It is usually associated with other cardiac anomalies, including ventricular septal defect, ... -
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 ... -
ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction possibly caused by thromboembolism from left atrial appendage thrombus after incomplete surgical ligation
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2018)Coronary embolism (CE) is the underlying cause of 3% of acute coronary syndromes but is frequently overlooked in the differential diagnoses of acute coronary syndromes. The CE may be direct (left sided from the native or ... -
Multimodality imaging of a left ventricular aneurysm in a patient with normal coronary arteries: Unusual localization
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2017)Left ventricular aneurysm (LVA) is rare but potentially fatal complication of myocardial infarction. It has been strictly defined as a distinct area of abnormal left ventricular diastolic contour with systolic dyskinesia ... -
Intermittent malfunction and regurgitation of a mitral prosthetic valve due to entrapment by a residual subvalvular apparatus
(Blackwell Publishing Inc., 2018)Intermittent malfunction is a rare but potentially serious complication of prosthetic heart valve (PHV) replacement. It may be observed in both mitral and aortic valve prosthesis and may lead to either paroxysmal obstruction ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein as a potential biomarker of acute carbon monoxide poisoning
(2013)Background The aim of this study was to investigate the role of serum heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) in the evaluation of patients with carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Methods Forty patients with acute CO ... -
Paraoxanase as an indicator of myocardial ischemia and its utility in determining extension of ischemia
(W.B. Saunders, 2016)Background The aim of this study was to investigate Paraoxanase 1 (PON-1) activity in patients with ST-elevated and non-ST-elevated acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to determine its correlation with Gensini scores ... -
Predicting tularemia with clinical, laboratory and demographical findings in the ED
(W.B. Saunders, 2016)Introduction We aimed to determine clinical, laboratory and demographical characteristics of tularemia on admission to Emergency Department (ED). Material and Methods Medical data of 317 patients admitted to ED and ... -
An unusual complication of Behcet disease: Spontaneous bilateral pneumothorax
(W.B. Saunders, 2016)Behcet disease is a multisystem vasculitis of unknown etiology, and pulmonary involvement is unusual. Concurrent bilateral pneumothorax is also seen rarely. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of ... -
Prognostic value of neglected biomarker in sepsis patients with the old and new criteria: predictive role of lactate dehydrogenase
(W.B. Saunders, 2016)Objectives This study examined the pH, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and heart rate values on the first day of hospitalization in patients with a prediagnosis of sepsis and biomarkers that may predict mortality. Methods ... -
Right-sided electrocardiogram usage in acute pulmonary embolism
(W.B. Saunders, 2016)Introduction Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of standard electrocardiogram (ECG) in acute pulmonary embolism (APE) are low. Presence of findings of concomitant right ventricular strain suggests that the use of ... -
