Metabolic and biochemical effects of low-to-moderate alcohol consumption.
BACKGROUND Alcohol consumption has multiple biochemical consequences. Only a few of these are useful as diagnostic markers, but many reflect potentially harmful or beneficial effects of alcohol. Average consumption of 2 to 4 drinks per day is associated with lower overall or cardiovascular mortality risk than either lower or higher intake. We have analyzed the dose-response relationships betwee...
متن کاملEchocardiographic markers of inducible myocardial ischemia at baseline evaluation preparatory to exercise stress echocardiography
BACKGROUND Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) is a sensible and feasible method to detect longitudinal left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension or ischemic heart disease. In this study, we hypothesized that longitudinal LVSD assessed by TDI predicted inducible myocardial ischemia independently of other echocardiographic variables (assessed as ...

conclusions the tsi analysis in patients with cad may be considered an interesting parameter in addition to the conventional echocardiographic parameters during ese. background stress echocardiography represents one of the best possible imaging choice for the diagnosis and stratification of patients with coronary artery disease (cad). however, this imaging technique presents some limitations su...
متن کاملLow Prevalance of Major Events Adverse to Exercise Stress Echocardiography
BACKGROUND Stress echocardiography is well validated for diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease. Exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) has been shown to be the most physiological among the modalities of stress, but its safety is not well established. OBJECTIVE To study the complications related to ESE and clinical and echocardiographic variables most commonly associated...
متن کاملSensitive method of detecting myocardial ischemia during dobutamine stress echocardiography.
To test the hypothesis that dobutamine-induced myocardial ischemia causes early-systolic asynchrony predominantly in the regional left ventricular wall, color kinesis (CK) images during dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) were recorded in 13 patients with coronary artery disease and in 10 patients without, all of whom showed normal wall motion at rest. Based on the visual interpretation of...
