The Relationship between Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure and Quality of Life in Patients with Mitral Stenosis
Zorlu, Ali; Amioglu, Gullu; Yilmaz, Nuryil; Semiz, Murat; Ege, Meltem Refiker; Aydin, Gulay; Tandogan, Izzet; Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan (KARGER, 2011)Objectives: We aimed to evaluate echocardiography-guided hemodynamic determinants of quality of life (QoL) via the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form (SF-36) questionnaire in patients with mild to moderate mitral stenosis ... -
Relationship between red cell distribution width and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Sincer, Isa; Zorlu, Ali; Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan; Dogan, Omer Tamer; Ege, Meltem Refiker; Amioglu, Gullu; Aydin, Gulay; Ardic, Idris; Tandogan, Izzet (MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2012)BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressively debilitating disease limiting patients' survival. The prognosis of COPD worsens with the addition of right ventricular (RV) failure. Red cell ... -

Oezdemir, Levent; Turgut, Okan O.; Aslan, Seher; Tandogan, Izzet; Candan, Ferhan; Nur, Naim; Cetin, Ilhan; Demir, Oemer F. (SAUDI MED J, 2009)Objectives: To investigate the frequencies of risk factors and the prevalence of coronary heart disease (CAD) in heavy vehicle drivers. Methods: This cross-sectional type study was conducted between November 2004 and ... -
Role of CA-125 in Identification of Right Ventricular Failure in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan; Zorlu, Ali; Dogan, Omer Tamer; Karahan, Oguz; Tandogan, Izzet; Akkurt, Ibrahim (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive and debilitating disease. Cor pulmonale, characterized by right ventricular (RV) failure, can severely influence prognosis in these patients. Hence, ... -
The severity of ST segment elevation in acute inferior myocardial infarction: Does it predict the presence of a proximal culprit lesion along the right coronary artery course?
Erdem, Alim; Yilmaz, Mehment Birhan; Yalta, Kenan; Turgut, Okan Onur; Tandogan, Izzet (TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2007)Objective: Acute inferior myocardial infarction (AIMI) is generally characterized by ST segment elevation in the limb leads (D2, D3, aVF). Many trials have reported the close relation between the severity of this ST segment ... -
Sleep quality among relatively younger patients with initial diagnosis of hypertension: Dippers versus non-dippers
Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan; Yalta, Kenan; Turgut, Okan Onur; Yilmaz, Ahmet; Yucel, Oguzhan; Bektasoglu, Gokhan; Tandogan, Izzet (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2007)Background. Sleep is a basic physiological process. Normal sleep yields decrease in sympathetic activity, blood pressure ( BP) and heart rate. Those, who do not have expected decrease in their BP are considered "non-dippers''. ... -
Tortuosity of coronary arteries: an indicator for impaired left ventricular relaxation?
Turgut, Okan; Yilmaz, Ahmet; Yalta, Kenan; Yilmaz, Birhan M.; Ozyol, Ali; Kendirlioglu, Omer; Karadas, Filiz; Tandogan, Izzet (SPRINGER, 2007)Objective To investigate the relationship between coronary tortuosity and impaired left ventricular relaxation. Methods One hundred and four subjects who underwent coronary angiography were included in the study. Left ... -
Usefulness of Admission Red Cell Distribution Width as a Predictor of Early Mortality in Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
Zorlu, Ali; Bektasoglu, Gokhan; Guven, Fatma Mutlu Kukul; Dogan, Omer Tamer; Gucuk, Esra; Ege, Meltem Refiker; Altay, Hakan; Cinar, Ziynet; Tandogan, Izzet; Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan (EXCERPTA MEDICA INC-ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012)Red cell distribution width (RDW) is strongly associated with prognosis in cardiopulmonary disorders such as coronary artery disease, acute myocardial infarction, acute and chronic heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension. ...
