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 ...
A rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention: Coronary pseudoaneurysm formation
(Akademiai Kiado Rt., 2017)
Coronary pseudoaneurysms (CPAs) are rare complications developed after percutaneous coronary interventions. They may cause stent thrombosis, distal embolization, and coronary rupture leading to cardiac tamponade. Therefore, ...
Dunbar syndrome as an unusual cause of exercise-induced retrosternal pain
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2015)
The median arcuate ligament is a fibrous band connecting the left and right diaphragmatic crura across the aortic hiatus at the level of the T12/L1 vertebral bodies. The low insertion point of this ligament causes significant ...
Multimodality diagnostic imaging of a giant coronary artery aneurysm
(Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2015)
A 78-year-old woman with a history of hypertension and end-stage renal disease was admitted to our hospital for routine control.
Relation of serum ADMA, Apelin-13 and LOX-1 levels with inflammatory and echocardiographic parameters in hemodialysis patients
(Wiley, 2018)
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. Nitric oxide has a critical role in both endothelial dysfunction and the atherosclerosis process. We aimed to investigate ...
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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
