The relationship between heparanase levels, thrombus burden and thromboembolism in patients receiving unfractionated heparin treatment for prosthetic valve thrombosis
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
Introduction: Procoagulant activity of heparanase has been recently described in several arterial and venous thrombotic disorders. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of heparanase with regard to thrombus burden, ...
Comparison of syntax score and syntax score II to predict “no reflow phenomenon” in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
(Springer Netherlands, 2017)
Even though the relationship between syntax score (SS) and coronary no-reflow phenomenon has been studied, the relation between SS and syntax score II (SS II) in patients with no-reflow phenomenon is unknown. We aimed to ...
Relation of serum spondin-2 levels with cardiac morphology and inflammatory parameters in hemodialysis patients
(Springer Netherlands, 2018)
Purpose: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of mortality in chronic kidney disease. Spondin-2 (SP-2), an intrinsic cardio-protective factor, prevents maladaptive remodeling. We aimed to determine the relation ...
The role of protein Z and protein Z-dependent protease ınhibitor polymorphisms in the development of prosthetic heart valve thrombosis
(2017)
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY: Protein Z (PZ) is a vitamin K-dependent factor that is synthesized mainly by the liver. It acts as an activator of serpin, the protein Z-dependent inhibitor (ZPI), which inhibits factor Xa. ...
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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
