Myocardial infarction in familial hyper-alpha and hypo-beta-lipoproteinaemia.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is the documentation of an acute myocardial infarction in a 45-year-old woman with familial hyper-alpha- and hypo-beta-lipoproteinaemia. This dyslipoproteinaemia has been rarely associated with clinical evidence of ischaemic heart disease. Documentation of angiographically normal coronary arteries in this patient is consistent with the concept that increased alpha-lipoprotein (HDL) and low beta-lipoprotein (LDL) may prevent atherosclerosis. Thus, myocardial infarction in patients with this dys-lipoproteinaemia should be attributable to factors other than coronary atherosclerosis.

Early contrast-enhanced MRI predicts late functional recovery after reperfused myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND We have observed 3 abnormal patterns on contrast-enhanced MRI early after reperfused myocardial infarction (MI): (1) absence of normal first-pass signal enhancement (HYPO), (2) normal first pass signal followed by hyperenhanced signal on delayed images (HYPER), or (3) both absence of normal first-pass enhancement and delayed hyperenhancement (COMB). This study examines the associatio...
متن کاملScreening for familial hyper-beta-lipoproteinaemia in children in hospital.
1510 plasma cholesterol estimations were made in 1391 children admitted to hospital as part of a biochemical profile. Babies under 1 year and children known to have familial hyperlipoproteinaemia were excluded. The mean concentration was 4-28 mmol/l +/- 1-04 (1 SD) (165-3 mg/100 ml +/- 38-6), and levels exceeded 5-93 mmol/l (229 mg/100 ml) in 68 children. Repeat estimations on 55 of these child...

Myocardial infarction sequel of coronary artery diseases, can be sometimes asymptomatic, called silent myocardial infarction. Some risk factors predispose the patients to this condition. In this study, we intend to determine the predisposing factors in such patients.Methods and Materials: We included those patients with electrocardiogram changes, consistent with myocardial infarction, who had n...

Background: Contradictory results have been obtained regarding the role of integrin, beta 3 (ITGB3) gene polymorphisms in occurrence of myocardial infarction (MI). Objectives: We aimed to assess the association between 1565C/T polymorphism of ITGB3 gene and increased risk for acute MI in patients with premature coronary artery disease (CAD). <strong...
