Cell Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease
Recently, cell therapy has sparked a revolution in ischemic heart disease that will in the future help clinicians to cure patients. Earlier investigations in animal models and clinical trials have suggested that positive paracrine effects such as neoangiogenesis and anti-apoptotic can improve myocardial function. In this regard the Royan cell therapy center designed a few trials in collaborat...
متن کاملCardiac Disease in Acromegaly
Visit our website at: http://pituitary.mgh.harvard.edu Patients with acromegaly are known to have reduced life expectancy. Prior to effective treatment for acromegaly, more than 80% of acromegalic patients died of cardiovascular disease before age 60 (1,2). Even in the modern era with available therapy, mortality in active acromegaly is still increased about twoto three-fold and the major cause...

متن کاملCardiovascular changes in patients with acromegaly assessed by CMR
Results In patients with acromegaly left ventricular (LV) mass index (LVMi) was increased (65.7 vs. 45.8 g/m2, p=0.0021) and was observed in both females (58.8 v. 40.9 g/m2, p=0.0028) and males (71.1 vs. 56.7 g/m2, p=0.0286) compared to matched controls. The LVMi did not correlate with the serum insulin growth factor (IGF) activity (r=0.099, p=0.745) or age (r=-0.08, p=0.175). Patients with acr...
متن کاملRole of personalized medicine in cardiovascular disease: A narrative review
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality each year. Both environmental and genetic risk factors significantly influence the incidence and progression of these diseases. In recent decades, with the development of genetics and genome-determining tools, different genes have been found associated with numerous diseases. Determining these genes helps us to suggest a more effective ...
