Impaired Fibrinolysis in Angiographically Documented Coronary Artery Disease
Impaired fibrinolysis may predispose to coronary artery disease (CAD). Hypofibrinolysis due to high levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been reported in CAD. A novel regulator of fibrinolytic activity, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), has attracted attention in recent years. It acts by blocking the formation of a ternary complex of plasminogen, fibrin, and...
متن کاملGraded exercise stress tests in angiographically documented coronary artery disease.
Graded exercise stress tests performed on 650 consecutive patients with proven or suspected coronary disease undergoing evaluation by cardiac catheterization were correlated with clinical, hemodynamic, and angiographic findings. Among 451 patients with significant coronary stenosis, 332 (74%) had interpretable stress tests and 65% of these were positive (sensitivity). The rate of "false positiv...
متن کاملInflammatory markers in men with angiographically documented coronary heart disease.
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process. In this study, we examined several markers of inflammation in men with coronary heart disease (CHD) and appropriate controls. METHODS The concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), serum amyloid A (SAA), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and soluble intracellular adhesion molecule (sICAM-1) were examined in 100 m...

MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a cross-sectional, hospital-based study, which was conducted on all Saudi patients who underwent coronary angiography under the author's personal care and were found to have > 50% coronary steno...
متن کاملCommon Genetic Polymorphisms and Environmental Risk Factors in Polish Patients with Angiographically Documented Coronary Artery Disease
It has been suggested that the G894T NOS3, C677T MTHFR, A(-455)G FBB, and C(-1562)T MMP-9 genetic polymorphisms were implicated in the pathogenesis of CAD. We assessed their prevalence among
