Stress-induced release of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in patients with coronary artery disease: The possible influence of cortisol.

Stress and inflammation are both important risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the susceptibility to stress-induced inflammation and its determinants have been little explored in patients with CAD. Here, our aim was to study the stress-induced inflammatory response, more precisely the early release of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, and its association with cortisol respo...

Myocardial 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...
