Aspirin thromboprophylaxis of asymptomatic antiphospholipid-positive subjects.
The appropriateness of aspirin prophylaxis to prevent the occurrence of thrombosis in asymptomatic patients with confirmed positivity of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) has been recently debated. On the one side, Meroni and his group [1] support the reasons in favor of aspirin administration, particularly to patients considered at high risk of thrombosis. These patients are identified as thos...
متن کاملpredictive accuracy of nonstress test in high risk pregnancies
there are now several tests available that can assess fetal status. a series of 164 cases of high risk pregnancies were studied in order to assess predictive value of a nonstress test. the majority (36%) of patients complained about postdate pregnancy. a nonreactive test was identified in 24 of the patients (14.6%). fetal distress, low apgar score in 1 and 10 minutes after birth and mean of apg...
متن کاملClinical value and severity of myocardial perfusion defects in asymptomatic diabetic patients with negative or weakly positive exercise treadmill test
Objective: Although coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in type 2 diabetic patients, it is frequently asymptomatic. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is reported to show ischemia in a significant number of asymptomatic diabetic patients. We studied the prevalence and severity of myocardial perfusion defects in asymptomatic diabetic patients and its clinical impact. Meth...
متن کاملA Consistent Test for Nonlinear Out of Sample Predictive Accuracy∗
In this paper, we draw on both the consistent specification testing and the predictive ability testing literatures and propose an integrated conditional moment type predictive accuracy test that is similar in spirit to that developed in Bierens (1982,1990) and Bierens and Ploberger (1997). The test is consistent against generic nonlinear alternatives, and is designed for comparing nested models...
متن کاملMyocardial perfusion scan accuracy in detection of coronary artery disease - Comparison with exercise stress test [Persian]
Introduction: In patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) noninvasive evaluation for detection of ischemia is important to avoid invasive interventions like angiography. Exercise stress test is conventionally the first study used in evaluation of CAD. Considering the noninvasive nature of the myocardial perfusion scan, we decided to compare its accuracy with stress test. Methods: Patie...
