[ 1 ] - Coronary Artery Bypass Graft in Six Members of a Family: A Case Series
Abstract: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a multifactorial problem. Although hyperlipidemia (HLP), diabetes (DM), and hypertension (HTN) are known as the familial and cardiac risk factors, CABG is rare in the several members of a family. We reported the six members of a family who presented with MI and/or advanced angina pectoris during the 6 years. CABG(Coronary artery bypass graft) considere...
[ 2 ] - Effectiveness of Moderate Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution Combined with Tranexamic Acid on the Reduction of Allogenic Blood Transfusion in Patients Undergoing Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass
Introduction: There are different approaches to reduce the amount of blood loss and allogenic transfusion in cardiac surgery. Regarding this, the present study aimed to evaluate the blood sparing effect of acute normovolemic hemidilution (ANH) combined with intrao-perative tranexamic acid in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB).Material and Methods: This study was conduct...

[ 5 ] - The Evaluation of Survival in Patients Who Need Intra Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) after Cardiac Surgery
Introduction: Insome cases, assist devices are required to ensure an adequate cardiac output after cardiac surgery. Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is the most commonly used cardiac assist device, which provides first-line support for patients with heart failure. The aim of this study was to determine factors affecting the mortality rate of patients receiving IABP. Materials & Methods: In thi...
[ 6 ] - Comparison of Unstable Hemodynamic Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery with on- or off-Pump Methods
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common type of heart disease, with a mortality rate of 385,000 person per year in the United States. There are two main methods for CAD treatments: angioplasty and bypass surgery. Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is one of the greatest surgical operations of the 20th century and it is presented as most effective and long-term therapi...
[ 7 ] - Supportive Data for Galectin-3 as a Prognostic Factor in Coronary Artery Disease
Introduction: Galectin-3 is known as a biomarker in patients with heart failure. This protein participates in different mechanisms involved in atherosclerosis including inflammation and plaque formation. This study was conducted to investigate whether this factor could be a predictive biomarker for the severity of atherosclerosis. Materials and Methods: The study group consisted of 80 patients ...
