background: early clinical investigations indicate that an infusion of autologous bone-marrow cells into the infarct-related coronary artery is feasible after acute myocardial infarction. there is increasing evidence that cell transplantation may improve the perfusion and contractile function of the ischemic myocardium . the present study reports primarily the safety of intracoronary bone marro...

background: coronary artery disease is known as the main cause of death in industrialized countries. relation between this disease and some infections such as helicobacter pylori (h.pylori) has been shown in several studies. the purpose of this study was to dermine the relationship between hypylori and mycardical infarctions. methods: seventy-three myocardial infarction patients and 78 individu...

to evaluate the prognostic significance of clinicopathological measurement in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (mi) in sheep, acute mi was induced by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery (lad). for this purpose, twenty four healthy sheep were divided into the sham-operated or control group (group i, thoracotomy without mi) and the experimental group (group ii, with m...

background and aims: cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of mortality among men and women so that the difference in acute myocardial infarction (ami) symptoms between men and women can affect diagnosis and time of decision making for treatment and consequently disease outcomes. therefore, knowledge of different symptoms affects the prognosis of the disease according to the gender. this s...

introduction: percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (ptca) is an effective method for revascularizing of stenotic coronary vessels. lack of response to this treatment, either in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients, is usually due to incomplete revascularization, restenosis, and/or irreversibility of myocardial perfusion. introduction of a noninvasive method with high predictive value ...

introduction: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (nadph) oxidase-2 (nox2) is one of the predominant sources of ros production during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and can be induced by angiotensin ii. the evidence suggests that pharmacological blockers of renin-angiotensin system can exert direct tissue effects independent of their ability to regulate blood pressure. the mechanism(s)...

The results obtained in the present investigations point to a definite correlation between the onset of myocardial injury, electrocardiographic changes and biochemical changes. Changes in the electrocardiogram and elevated serum levels were paralleled by an increased excretion of magnesium in urine as early as one hour. Serum calcium and serum potassium levels did not show any significant ...
