Evaluation of ghrelin levels and endothelial functions in patients with coronary slow flow phenomenon
(Akademiai Kiado Rt., 2017)
Background: Ghrelin has recently been reported to have beneficial effects on cardiac contractile functions and coronary blood flow. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the role of ghrelin in the pathogenesis ...
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, ...
Management of an acute ischemic stroke during thrombolytic treatment in a pregnant patient with prosthetic valve thrombosis
(Akademiai Kiado Rt., 2017)
Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) is a life-threatening complication in pregnant women with mechanical prosthetic heart valves. Thrombolytic therapy (TT) has evolved as an effective treatment alternative to surgery, which ...
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 ...
The mortal cause of sudden ECG changes in patients with chronic aortic insufficiency: Aortic dissection
(Akademiai Kiado Rt., 2019)
The symptoms of aortic dissection (AD) may be highly variable and may mimic other much common conditions. Thus, a high index of suspicion should be maintaned, especially when the risk factors for AD are present or signs ...
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 ...
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 ...
Evaluation of homocystein and asymmetric dimethyl arginine levels in patients with coronary slow flow phenomenon
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2019)
Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that homocysteine and asymmetric dimethyl arginine (ADMA) levels were strongly associated with cardiovascular diseases including coronary artery disease. The aim of this study ...
Improvement of endothelial function early after thrombolytic therapy in patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis
(2020)
Objective: Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) is a serious complication among patients with prosthetic heart valves. Thrombolytic therapy (TT) is now widely used as first-line treatment for PVT. Endothelial dysfunction has ...
Pulmonary Function, Aerobic Capacity and Related Variables in Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis
(2019)
Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the cardiopulmonary functions and exercise performance of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to investigate the relationship between these parameters and disease activity, ...
