Atrial conduction times and left atrial mechanical functions and their relation with diastolic function in prediabetic patients
BACKGROUND/AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate atrial conduction times and left atrial mechanical functions, the noninvasive predictors of atrial fibrillation, in prediabetic patients with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). METHODS Study included 59 patients (23 males, 36 females; mean age 52.5 ± 10.6 years) diagnosed with IFG or IGT by the American...
متن کاملAssessment of atrial conduction times in prediabetic patients with coronary artery disease
OBJECTIVE Prediabetes is a dysglycemic state and is associated with subtle myocardial injury and dysfunction. We evaluated atrial conduction times (ACTs) and atrial electromechanical delays (EMDs) in prediabetic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS In the present study, we recruited 128 consecutive patient candidates (40 euglycemic, 48 prediabetic, and 40 diabetic patients) fo...
متن کاملEvaluation of left atrial mechanical functions and atrial conduction abnormalities in patients with clinical hypothyroid.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate left atrial (LA) mechanical functions, atrial electromechanical delay and P wave dispersion in hypothyroid patients. METHODS Thirty-four patients with overt hypothyroid and thirty controls were included. A diagnosis of overt hypothyroid was reached with increased serum TSH and decreased free T4 (fT4) levels. LA volumes were measured using th...
متن کاملAltered physiological functions and ion currents in atrial fibroblasts from patients with chronic atrial fibrillation.
The contribution of human atrial fibroblasts to cardiac physiology and pathophysiology is poorly understood. Fibroblasts may contribute to arrhythmogenesis through fibrosis, or by directly altering electrical activity in cardiomyocytes. The objective of our study was to uncover phenotypic differences between cells from patients in sinus rhythm (SR) and chronic atrial fibrillation (AF), with spe...
متن کاملNrf2 and Redox Status in Prediabetic and Diabetic Patients
The redox status associated with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) was evaluated in prediabetic and diabetic subjects. Total antioxidant status (TAS) in plasma and erythrocytes, glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content and activity of antioxidant enzymes were measured as redox status markers in 259 controls, 111 prediabetics and 186 diabetic type 2 subjects. Nrf2 was...
