Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) (known as contrast-induced acute kidney injury) occurs as a result of acute worsening of renal function following a procedure with administration of iodine contrasts agent and remains a substantial concern in clinical practices. The purpose of this study is to investigate the preventive effect of Pentoxifylline supplementation on reduction of CIN occurrence af...
BACKGROUND The Melody transcatheter pulmonary valve (TPV) was approved for implantation in obstructed right ventricular outflow tract conduits in 2010 after a multicenter trial demonstrating improvements in conduit obstruction, regurgitation, and right ventricular pressure. A recognized risk and contraindication to TPV implantation is the demonstration of coronary artery (CA) compression during...
Background: Unstable angina is a critical phase of coronary heart disease with widely variable symptoms and prognosis. In recent years, the pathophysiological roles of platelet activation and inflammation in unstable angina have been elucidated. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the role of C-reactive protein (CRP) and neutrophil count as predictive factors for future events (in a six...
AIMS To evaluate whether comprehensive evaluation of coronary anatomy and delayed enhancement (DE) by multidetector-computed tomography (MDCT) would allow determination of etiology of left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) as compared with coronary angiography (CA) and DE-magnetic resonance (CMR). METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy-one consecutive patients (50 males, 59 +/- 16 years) with LVD (ejection ...
BACKGROUND Multi-detector computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a modality for the non-invasive assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). Prior studies have selected patients for evaluation and have excluded many of the "real-world" patients commonly encountered in daily practice. We compared 64-detector-CT (64-CT) to conventional coronary angiography (CA) to investigate the accuracy of 64...
Background: Cardiac X Syndrome is the occurrence of angina pectoris in spite of a normal coronary angiogram, probably due to a disorder of the cardiac sensory nervous system (pain perception). The insulin resistance (metabolic X) syndrome is an important determinant of coronary artery disease. There is a dearth of research on the association between insulin resistance and cardiac X syndrome. We...
background coronary artery disease is the single most important cause of mortality and morbidity in diabetic patients. electrocardiographic stress test is a non-invasive modality to screen significant coronary involvement in minimally symptomatic diabetics. objectives we investigated the positive predictive value (ppv) of this test in comparison with coronary angiography. materials and methods ...
BACKGROUND The use of coronary angiography (CA) for diagnosis and management of chest pain (CP) has several flaws. The assessment of coronary artery disease using fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a well-validated technique for describing lesion-level ischemia and improves clinical outcome in the context of percutaneous coronary intervention. The impact of routine FFR at the time of diagnostic C...
A 56 year old man was admitted to our center for further evaluation of typical chest pain of ten months' duration. Selective coronary angiography was done and showed a sewing needle-like foreign body which was lying in very close proximity to the anatomic location of the right coronary artery. At operation two pieces of sewing needles were removed, one from the coronary sinus and the other...
background: according to the angiographic findings, 3%-8% of atherosclerotic coronary artery patients suffer from coronary artery ectasia (cae). we conducted this study to estimate the prevalence of cae among patients who underwent angiography and compared this group with those patients without cae and atherosclerosis in terms of common coronary heart disease (chd) risk factors. methods : this ...
