Fibrin clot properties independently predict adverse clinical outcome following acute coronary syndrome: a PLATO substudy.
Aims To determine whether fibrin clot properties are associated with clinical outcomes following acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods and results Plasma samples were collected at hospital discharge from 4354 ACS patients randomized to clopidogrel or ticagrelor in the PLATelet inhibition and patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial. A validated turbidimetric assay was employed to study plasma clot lys...
متن کاملCoronary flow velocity and disturbed flow predict adverse clinical outcome after coronary angioplasty.
OBJECTIVE Laminar flow becomes disturbed at high velocities, reducing shear stress and augmenting vascular inflammation and proliferation, processes that are pivotal in restenosis and atherogenesis. We hypothesized that disturbed blood flow after coronary angioplasty is associated with adverse long-term clinical outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS The cineangiograms from 97 patients undergoing laser...
متن کاملBaseline platelet count and clinical outcome in acute coronary syndrome.
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether platelet count (PLT) is independently associated with clinical outcome in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS AND RESULTS MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane library clinical trials registry, ISI Science Citation Index, and ISI Web of Knowledge were searched, supplemented by hand-scanning of references of relevant publications and contacting content...
متن کاملPredictors of adverse outcome in a diabetic population following acute coronary syndromes.
INTRODUCTION People with diabetes are at increased risk for heart failure (HF), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and death following acute coronary syndromes (ACS). It is important to recognize the most powerful predictors of these events after an ACS as early as possible, in order to address them more aggressively. This is particularly important considering that various studies have ...
متن کاملC-reactive Protein as a Predictor of Adverse outcome in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The acute-phase reactant C-reactive protein (CRP) has been shown to reflect systemic and vascular inflammation and to predict future cardiovascular events. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of CRP in predicting cardiovascular outcome in patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes. PATIENTS AND METHODS This prospective, single-cent...
