Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a multifactorial and heterogenic disease. Recently, genome-wide association studies have reported that rs1333040 (C/T) and rs1004638 (A/T) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 9p21 locus have very strong association with CAD. This study aimed to examine these associations in Southwest of Iran. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 200 C...

Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) causes electrical heterogeneity on ventricular myocardium and arrhythmia due to myocardial ischemia linked repolarization abnormalities. Objective Our aim is investigate the impact of increased level CAD spectrum severity via Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT Tp-e/QTc ratios. Methods 127 patients with normal coronary (group 1), 129 stable 2) 121 acute syndrome 3) w...

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of resveratrol (RES) on Canonical β-catenin/Wnt and forkhead box O (FOXO) pathways in CAD patients.Method: We performed this study on 10 metabolic syndrome patients with three-vessel CAD and 10 sex-aged matched healthy subjects. The effects of RES on...

Background: The utility of telomere G-tail length to predict coronary artery disease (CAD) remains controversial. CAD results from narrowing due cholesterol and lipid accumulation, augmented by inflammatory cells other factors. This study explored the significance in suspected patients.

background coronary artery disease is the single most important cause of mortality and morbidity in diabetic patients. electrocardiographic stress test is a non-invasive modality to screen significant coronary involvement in minimally symptomatic diabetics. objectives we investigated the positive predictive value (ppv) of this test in comparison with coronary angiography. materials and methods ...

Self-monitoring of Blood Pressure (BP) among hypertensive patients is a significant for the management and prevention hypertension related complications such as atherosclerosis, Heart Failure (HF), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), stroke, kidney disease, peripheral arterial disease.

Atherosclerosis is one of the most important coronary artery disease (CAD) caused by lipid accumulation, hypertension, smoking, and many other factors such as environmental and genetic factors. It has been recorded that genetic variations in rs10757278 and rs1333049 are correlated with CAD. In the present study, 100 blood samples were collected (50 CAD patients and 50 appeared to be healthy con...
