Diagnosis of myocardial infarction is very important in a patient with chest pain. Chest pain is not always present or it may be from other causes rather than myocardial infarction. Q wave is present in 30] of infarction. ST,T wave changes are present in all myocardial infarctions, but these changes also are present in myocardial ischernia.  For these reasons diagnosis of myocardial infarction...

Background: Acute myocardial infarction is one of the emerging cardiovascular events worldwide. Infarcts inferior wall were present between one-third and half patients with RV involvement. The worse outcome was strongly associated cardiogenic shock, 7% cases caused by failure. Objective: This study aimed to describe diagnosis management shock in STEMI Case presentation: A male his 40s brought o...

BACKGROUND We report relationships between cardiovascular disease risk factors and myocardial structure, function, and scar in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study. METHODS AND RESULTS Cardiac magnetic resonance was obtained in 1017 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitu...

Most patients survive their first non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke (IS), but a significant proportion of them experience second within the year. The main directions for prevention recurrent IS are antihypertensive and lipid-lowering therapy, control glucose levels in with diabetes mellitus, smoking cessation. Clinical guidelines recommend use antiplatelet therapy noncardioembolic or transient ...

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD), accounting for almost half all cases failure that necessitate replacement therapy. Cardiovascular (CVD) death in patients with T2DM and CKD. To lower blood glucose levels by inhibiting reabsorption proximal tubule, sodium/glucose cotransporter inhibitors (SGLT2-i) were developed. Consistent reductions risks se...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The adverse effects of systemic hypertension and diabetes mellitus in coronary patients are well known, although their long-term prognostic influence on patients with unstable angina (UA) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary stenting is uncertain. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of these pathologies in this population a...

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus, primarily type 2 diabetes mellitus, is increasing at epidemic rates in the United States and worldwide, driven largely by increasing rates of obesity and advancing age for populations living in westernized countries. Diabetes mellitus is associated with a 2to 4-fold increase in the risk of coronary heart disease, and among people with diabetes, about two thi...

A patient with type 2 diabetes carries a cardiovascular risk similar to that of a non-diabetic with a prior history of myocardial infarction. Endothelial dysfunction, an early event in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is present in diabetes mellitus in the absence of clinical cardiovascular disease. The assessment of the endothelium dependent vasodilatory effect in response to various stimul...

BACKGROUND There is accumulating evidence for an increased cardiovascular burden in inflammatory arthritis, but the true magnitude of this cardiovascular burden is still debated. We sought to determine the prevalence rate of non-fatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) in inflammatory arthritis, diabetes mellitus and osteoarthritis (non-systemic inflammatory comparator) compared to controls, in prima...

BACKGROUND Incidence, any trend over time, and predictors of ischemic stroke after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in diabetic patients are unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Data for 173,233 unselected patients with an AMI, including 33,503 patients with diabetes mellitus, were taken from the Swedish Register of Information and Knowledge about Swedish Heart Intensive Care Admissions (RIKS-HIA...
