Plasma homocysteine levels associated with a corrected QT interval
BACKGROUND Little is known about the relationship between homocysteine (Hcy) levels and the QT interval. We examined the association of different Hcy levels with corrected QT (QTc) intervals in a general population. METHODS Plasma levels of Hcy were assessed in a population-based study of 7002 participants 35 years of age and older from 2012 to 2013. Twelve-lead ECGs were performed on all par...
متن کامل[Corrected QT interval and corrected QT interval dispersion is worthwhile when interpreted with other repolarization measurements].
We read the article entitled ‘‘The effect of esmolol on corrected-QT interval, corrected-QT interval dispersion changes seen during anesthesia induction in hypertensive patients taking an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor’’ by Ceker et al. with interest.1 The authors investigated the effects of esmolol on the hemodynamic, correctedQT (QTc) interval and corrected-QT interval dispersion (QT...
متن کاملChanges in the corrected QT interval and corrected QT dispersion during haemodialysis.
The link between increased QT dispersion and cardiac death in subjects with diabetes and arterial disease is well recognised. Corrected QT dispersion was studied in subjects with end stage renal failure on haemodialysis. Thirty one stable, chronic subjects on haemodialysis had 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) taken before and after a single haemodialysis session. The QT interval was measured m...
متن کاملElevation of plasma homocysteine levels associated with acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on plasma homocystein (Hcy) levels, to determine the optimal time to measure this risk factor for coronary artery disease. DESIGN A prospective case study. SETTING The Division of Cardiac Sciences, Grey Nuns Hospital in Edmonton. PATIENTS Sixty-two patients (40 men, 22 women) admitted to hospital with AMI. INTERVENTION M...
متن کاملCorrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation and syncope associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia.
An adolescent presented with exercise-associated syncope and electrocardiographic corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation. Pseudohypoparathyroidism-induced hypocalcemia was diagnosed. The QTc (485 to 505 milliseconds) shortened during normalization of calcium levels, and syncope has not reoccurred.
