The relationship between acute myocardial infarction and periodontitis
Background: Periodontitis is common in adults and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the most common cause of adult death in the world. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between CVD and periodontitis. Methods: Sixty patients with myocardial infarction (MI) as case and 63 subjects with periodontitis without MI as control were studied. Periodontitis was assessed according to Ramfjo...
متن کاملRelationship of Total Homocysteine, Cholesterol, Triglyceride in the Serum and Diastolic Blood Pressure of Patients with Myocardial Infarction
Recent studies have documented the importance of lipids and lipoproteins as determinants of serum total homocysteine concentrations in persons with myocardial infarction, and in healthy subjects. Associations between various biological systems and total homocysteine have also been reported. However, some of these associations are poorly understood. The purpose of our study was to measure serum ...
متن کاملPatient satisfaction and its relationship with quality and outcomes of care after acute myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND Patient satisfaction is a widely used measurement for the evaluation of medical care. We examined the extent to which quality of care received after acute myocardial infarction predicted subsequent patient satisfaction with care and whether patient satisfaction itself was associated with long-term survival after acute myocardial infarction. METHODS AND RESULTS In a longitudinal coh...
متن کاملEffect of antecedent hypertension and follow-up blood pressure on outcomes after high-risk myocardial infarction.
The influence of blood pressure on outcomes after high-risk myocardial infarction is not well characterized. We studied the relationship between blood pressure and the risk of cardiovascular events in 14 703 patients with heart failure, left ventricular systolic dysfunction, or both after acute myocardial infarction in the Valsartan in Myocardial Infarction Trial. We assessed the relationship b...
متن کاملBlood Pressure Targets and Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The optimal blood pressure (BP) target in patients with a history of acute myocardial infarction (MI) remains as a subject of debate. The 'J curve phenomenon' has been suggested as a target for BP control, however, it is unclear whether this phenomenon can be applied to MI patients. We analyzed patients with acute MI and investigated whether the 'J curve phenomenon' ex...
