چکیده

Serial measurements of left ventricular posterior wall movement were made in eight patients with acute myocardial infarction by an ultrasound technique. Maximum posterior wall velocity and excursion were decreased during the first 36-hour period after infarction. In two patients a reduction in posterior wall velocity was associated with an increased pulmonary artery pressure and as the pressure returned towards normal the posterior wail motion also improved. It is suggested that this method provides a convenient, noninvasive bedside assessment of left ventricular function after acute myocardial infarction.

Enzymatic and Immunogenic Changes of Myocardial Infarction

Diagnosis of myocardial infarction is very important in a patient with chest pain. Chest pain is not always present or it may be from other causes rather than myocardial infarction. Q wave is present in 30] of infarction. ST,T wave changes are present in all myocardial infarctions, but these changes also are present in myocardial ischernia.  For these reasons diagnosis of myocardial infarction...

The Effect of Eight Weeks of Intermittent Training with Quercetin Encapsulated Nanoparticles on JNK and ERK Apoptosis Regulators in the Rat Model of Myocardial Infarction

Introduction: Restoration of blood flow to the ischemic heart muscle causes infarction and myocyte death. Quercetin can be effective in treating heart disease due to its antioxidant effect, but its use is limited due to its low solubility in water. Quercetin restriction can be removed by embedding it in carrier nanoparticles. The present study was designed to determine the effect of quercetin e...

Comparison of Efficacy of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy on Depression in Patients with Myocardial Infarction

Aims: Depression is a common psychiatric disorder after myocardial infarction. So it is necessary to find the appropriate intervention to reduce depression. This study aimed at comparing the effect of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on depression in patients with myocardial infarction. Materials & Methods: In this clinical trial, 90 e...

study of platelet parameters in the patients with acute myocardial infarction referred to Ali Shariati Hospital in 2018

Introdution: The rapid and accurate diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is essential for effective treatment. Recently, troponin has been introduced as a biochemical marker for early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Platelet parameters (P-LCR, MPV, PDW) play a key role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome. The aim of this study was to evaluate platelet indexes in the ...
