There is still much controversy concerning the impact of gender on mortality during ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The COVID-19 pandemic deeply affected clinical history these patients, both in terms presentation time and management. Our study focuses STEMI patients hospitalized darkest period pandemic. From a total 283 women represented 26.8% population, with mean age 72 ±...

Abstract Introduction Conflicting data exist upon whether patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) during on- or off-hours differ regarding outcomes. Moreover, definitions of and vary in literature. The notion a weekend effect increased mortality has been raised, mostly seen relation to lesser use invasive treatment. Purpose This multi-center study investigated the baseline chara...

Objectives: In this study, we evaluated the differences in clinical and angiographic profiles of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with without diabetes mellitus (DM) at a tertiary care cardiac hospital Karachi, Pakistan. Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted The included consecutive adult (≥ 18 years age) diagnosed STEMI undergoing primary ...

We prove low regularity a priori estimates for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in Besov spaces with positive index conditional upon small L2-norm. This covers full subcritical range. use power series expansion of perturbation determinant introduced by Killip-Vi?an-Zhang completely integrable PDE. makes it possible to derive conservation laws from determinant.

In 1971, Golinskii and Ibragimov proved that if the Verblunsky coefficients, {αn}n=0, of a measure dμ on ∂D obey ∑∞ n=0 n|αn| < ∞, then the singular part, dμs, of dμ vanishes. We show how to use extensions of their ideas to discuss various cases where ∑N n=0 n|αn| diverges logarithmically. As an application, we provide an alternative to a part of the proof of a recent theorem of Damanik and Kil...

We compared two groups of patients after acute myocardial infarction. First group was treated with fibrinolytics and they were hospitalized within six hours from the beginning of the first chest-symptoms, and second group that did not come within optimal time was treated with anticoagulants only. The patients were classified according to Killip-classification, shock-index and TIMI-risk-score af...

Abstract Background Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous intervention (PCI) still experience a high rate of in-hospital complications. Liver fibrosis (LF) is risk factor for mortality in the general population. However its prognostic role ACS patients has been poorly investigated. Purpose We investigated whether presence LF detected by validated fibrosis-4 (FIB-4)...
