Association between HbA1c levels with severity of coronary artery disease and short-term outcomes of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction in nondiabetic patients
(2015)
Background: The severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is directly related to the quality of glucose control in diabetic patients. Additionally, mortality after an acute coronary syndrome is higher in patients with ...
Clinical Significance of ST Elevation in Lead aVR in Acute Pulmonary Embolism.
(2017)
Prognostic stratification of patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PTE) is crucial in identifying patients who would benefit from more aggressive treatment. We aimed to examine the value of ST elevation in lead aVR (STEaVR ...
Predictors of hospital mortality and serious complications in patients admitted with excessive warfarin anticoagulation.
(2016)
Warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant and serious bleeding remains the most feared complication. Excessive warfarin anticoagulation (EWA) can be associated with adverse outcome. We aimed to identify the ...
Clinical and laboratory predictors of coronary slow flow in coronary angiography.
(2017)
The coronary slow-flow phenomenon (CSFP) is a multifactorial angiographic finding with no established pathogenesis.To investigate the role of clinical profile and laboratory findings in patients with CSFP.We prospectively ...
The prognostic value of a prominent Q wave in lead (-)aVR in acute anterior wall myocardial infarction.
(2015)
This study aimed to determine the association of a prominent Q wave in lead (-)aVR with clinical, echocardiographic and angiographic findings in anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to evaluate the role ...
The psychological effects of cardiac rehabilitation after coronary revascularization.
(2016)
Prevalence of depression and anxiety increases following cardiac revascularization. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a cardiac rehabilitation program on psychological status of patients after cardiac ...
Twenty-year route of prevalence of risk factors, treatment patterns, complications, and mortality rate of acute myocardial infarction in Iran.
(2013)
Coronary artery diseases are regarded as the main cause of mortality in most countries. The present study aims at evaluating variations and studying its complications in Iranian patients within past 20 years.This cross-sectional ...
Electrocardiography changes in acute aortic dissection—association with troponin leak, coronary anatomy, and prognosis
(2016)
Background Electrocardiography (ECG) offers some information that may be used to prognosticate acute type A aortic dissection (AAOD) for short- and long-term mortality. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the electrocardiograms ...
Is female gender associated with worse outcome after ST elevation myocardial infarction?
(2017)
To investigate the impact of gender in outcomes of patients with ST segment myocardial infarction in a setting with limited access to primary percutaneous coronary intervention METHODS: In 1017 consecutive patients ...
Higher Frequency of Nocturnal Blood Pressure Dipping but Not Heart Rate Dipping in Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
(2017)
Masked hypertension (MHTN) and lack of nocturnal dipping in blood pressure (BP) have been linked to the state of inflammation.We aimed to assess the frequency of nocturnal patterns of BP and heart rate (HR) in patients ...
