The contemporary value of peak creatine kinase‐MB after ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction above other clinical and angiographic characteristics in predicting infarct size, left ventricular ejection fraction, and mortalityClinical Cardiology - Tập 40 Số 5 - Trang 322-328 - 2017
Minke H.T. Hartman, Ruben N. Eppinga, Pieter J. Vlaar, Chris P. H. Lexis, Erik Lipšic, Joost D.E. Haeck, Dirk J. van Veldhuisen, Iwan C. C. van der Horst, Pim van der Harst
BackgroundComplex multimarker approaches to predict outcome after ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have only considered a single baseline sample, while neglecting easily obtainable peak creatine kinase and creatine kinase‐<...... hiện toàn bộ
Association of colchicine use for acute gout with clinical outcomes in acute decompensated heart failureClinical Cardiology - Tập 45 Số 7 - Trang 733-741 - 2022
Mary E. Roth, Melissa E. Chinn, Steven P. Dunn, Kenneth C. Bilchick, Sula Mazimba
AbstractBackgroundGout is a common comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients and is frequently associated with acute exacerbations during treatment for decompensated HF. Although colchicine is often used to manage acute gout in HF patients, its impact on clinical outcomes when used during acute decompensated HF is unknown.... hiện toàn bộ
Comparison of plasma concentrations of thromboxane B2 in prinzmetal's variant angina and classical angina pectorisClinical Cardiology - Tập 2 Số 6 - Trang 404-406 - 1979
Robert Ira Lewy, Leslie Wiener, J B Smith, Paul Walinsky, Melvin J. Silver, John Saia
AbstractWe have reported that thromboxane B2 is present in plasma of Prinzmetal's angina patients measured by radioimmunoassay but is below detection limits, <0.5 pmol/ml, in normals. To determine whether this metabolite of thromboxane A2 (a coronary vasoconstrictor) is present in the peripheral blood in classical angina...... hiện toàn bộ
Differential effects of simvastatin and atorvastatin on high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein A‐I are consistent across hypercholesterolemic patient subgroupsClinical Cardiology - Tập 26 Số 11 - Trang 509-514 - 2003
Michael H. Davidson, Leiv Ose, Jiří Fröhlich, Russell Scott, Carlos A. Dujovne, Iván Darío Escobar, Marcelo Chiara Bertolami, Frank Cihon, Darbie Maccubbin, Michele Mercuri
AbstractBackground: In addition to lowering plasma levels of low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C), statins also raise high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C).Hypothesis: Recent studies have shown that treatment with simvastatin results in larger increases in HDL‐C than those seen wit...... hiện toàn bộ
Approaches to determination of left ventricular volume and ejection fraction by real‐time two‐dimensional echocardiographyClinical Cardiology - Tập 2 Số 4 - Trang 257-263 - 1979
Alfred F. Parisi, P F Moynihan, Charles L. Feldman, Edward D. Folland
AbstractLeft ventricular volumes and ejection fraction were derived from real time two‐dimensional echocardio‐graphic images (2 DE) and single plane (RAO) left ventricular cineangiograms in a series of 50 patients. Prospective application of a series of 6 alternate algorithms showed that a modified Simpson's rule approach using mitral and papillary muscle cross sec...... hiện toàn bộ
A Case of giant cell myocarditis and malignant thymoma: A postmortem diagnosis by needle biopsyClinical Cardiology - Tập 21 Số 1 - Trang 48-51 - 1998
Clive Kilgallen, Robert Salomon, Elizabeth Jackson, Howard K. Surks, Mark S. Bankoff
AbstractThis paper reports a case of fulminant giant cell myocarditis arising in association with a malignant thymoma causing death in a 46‐year‐old woman. Although the diagnosis was suspected in life, postmortem examination was required for confirmation of giant cell myocarditis. Consent was obtained only for percutaneous needle biopsy of the heart. In order to re...... hiện toàn bộ
