This study was to investigate the effect of total flavones of rhododendra (TFR) on ischemic myocardial injury in rabbits. Rabbit ischemic myocardial injury was induced by occluding the anterior descent of the left artery (LAD). The ECG was recorded; the plasma creatine kinase (CK), nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) levels were measured using spectrophotometry, Griess method and radioimm...
Currently, left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) and/or LV volumes are the established predictors of mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and severe LV dysfunction. With contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), precise delineation of infarct size is now possible. The relative merits of LVEF/LV volumes and infarct size to predict long-term outcome are unknow...
BACKGROUND The lipoprotein(a) pathway is a causal factor in coronary heart disease. We used a genetic approach to distinguish the relevance of two distinct components of this pathway, apolipoprotein(a) isoform size and circulating lipoprotein(a) concentration, to coronary heart disease. METHODS In this mendelian randomisation study, we measured lipoprotein(a) concentration and determined apol...
AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate seven methods for quantifying myocardial oedema [2 standard deviation (SD), 3 SD, 5 SD, full width at half maximum (FWHM), Otsu method, manual thresholding, and manual contouring] from T2-weighted short tau inversion recovery (T2w STIR) and also to reassess these same seven methods for quantifying acute infarct size following ST-segment myocardial infa...
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine whether remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) initiated prior to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) could reduce myocardial infarct (MI) size in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. BACKGROUND RIC, using transient limb ischemia and reperfusion, can protect the heart against acute ischemia-reperfusion injury. ...
BACKGROUND Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) isolated from human endomyocardial biopsies reduce infarct size and improve cardiac function in mice. Safety and efficacy testing in large animals is necessary for clinical translation. METHODS AND RESULTS Mesenchymal stem cells, which resemble CDCs in size and thrombogenicity, have been associated with infarction after intracoronary infusion. To m...
Introduction: In the present study, potential differences between the effects of L-carnitine (LC) and acetyl-Lcarnitine (ALC) on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial infarction size were investigated. Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups and then anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital. Hearts of the animals were removed and quickly mounted on a Langendorff app...
Background In the Preventive Angioplasty in Myocardial Infarction trial (PRAMI; ISRCTN73028481), immediate multivessel PCI (MV-PCI) of non-IRA (infarct related artery) lesions in patients with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel coronary disease (MVD) improved long term prognosis. We assessed infarct distribution and size in a pre-specified cardiac magnetic resonanc...
BACKGROUND Infarct size is an important surrogate end point for early and late mortality after acute myocardial infarction. Despite the high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with atherosclerotic diseases, adequate data are still lacking regarding the extent of myocardial necrosis after acute myocardial infarction in these patients. OBJECTIVES In the present study we aimed to compa...
OBJECTIVES The Acute Myocardial Infarction STudy of ADenosine (AMISTAD) trial was designed to test the hypothesis that adenosine as an adjunct to thrombolysis would reduce myocardial infarct size. BACKGROUND Reperfusion therapy for acute myocardial infarction (MI) has been shown to reduce mortality, but reperfusion itself also may have deleterious effects. METHODS The AMISTAD trial was a pr...
