background: studies on the prognosis of st elevation myocardial infarction (stemi) versus non-st elevation myocardial infarction (non-stemi) have shown different results. the present study was designed to compare the early outcome and left ventricular systolic function of patients with st and non-st elevation myocardial infarction. methods: the patients' information was derived from 10,065 cons...

introduction: myocardial infarction (mi) is associated with increased oxidative stress and reduced antioxidants. some studies have shown that exercise training increases the serum level antioxidants. therefore, this study investigated the effect of rehabilitation training on antioxidant status in patients with myocardial infarction. materials and methods: in this study, 20 patients with myocard...

conclusions a significant proportion of coronary atherosclerotic plaques in cadavers with confirmed acute myocardial infarction were detected to be infected with cytomegaloviruses while no infections of c. pneumoniae and h. pylori were detected. patients and methods sixty cadavers in two equal groups were analyzed. acute myocardial infarction group included cadavers with acute myocardial infarc...

Abstract Introduction: Myocardial Infarction, also known as heart attack, normally occurs due to such causes as smoking, family history, diabetes, and so on. It is recognized as one of the leading causes of death in the world. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the performance of classification models in order to predict Myocardial Infarction, using a feature selection method tha...

Objective(s): In heart failure, the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio of the delayed image and washout rate (WR) are well-known as a powerful cardiac event predictors. H/M ratio quantifies the accumulation rate of MIBG in the myocardium and WR quantifies reduction of meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) accumulation in the heart from the early planar image to the delayed pla...

background and objectives: gingival and periodontal diseases are associated with specific bacterial infections. the main aim of the study was to know whether the periodontitis is associated with an increased risk for acute myocardial infarction (ami) and to know the distribution of porphyromonas gingivalis in patients with acute myocardial infarction associated with chronic periodontitis and ac...

Background: Unstable angina and myocardial infarction are developed due to atherosclerosis of coronary arteries. At present, cholestrol, triglyceride, and lipoproteins are the most common risk factors of death. The purpose of this study was to assess the serum levels of LP (a), LDL-C, VLDL-C, HDL-C in cases of unstable angina and myocardial infarction.Methods: This study was conducted to compar...

To assess whether the site of myocardial infarction is an independent prognostic indicator, the outcome of patients with anterior myocardial infarction was compared with that of patients with inferior infarction. A consecutive series of patients who had suffered their first myocardial infarction was analyzed (398 with anterior and 391 with inferior infarction). Patients with anterior myocardial...
