Prognostic relevance of coronary collateral circulation: Clinical and epidemiological implications
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2009)
Coronary collateral circulation provides an important response to ischemic heart disease and partially determines the severity of ischemic myocardial damage. Practical significance of coronary collateral circulation has ...
Heart rate turbulence: An additional parameter in determining the need for mechanical relief of mitral stenosis?
(I C R PUBLISHERS, 2007)
Background and aim of the study: Heart rate turbulence (HRT) is a relatively newer parameter which has predictive value for mortality and severity in a variety of cardiovascular diseases. The study aim was to investigate ...

Impact of beta-blockers on sleep in patients with mild hypertension: a randomized trial between nebivolol and metoprolol
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Introduction: Sleep is an innate and essential part of human life. Various aspects of sleep are negatively affected by beta-blockers. We compared the impact of two beta-blockers, metoprolol succinate (extended release) and ...
Evaluation of tumor markers CA-125 and CEA in acute myocardial infarction
(HEALTH COMMUNICATIONS INC, 2006)
Serum carbohydrate antigen (CA-125) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) have always been of clinical importance in the diagnosis and follow-up of various tumors. This study was devised to investigate the relationship between ...
Geodesic pattern of coronary arteries as a predictor for cardiovascular risk: Clinical perspectives
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010)
Coronary angiography, despite current shortcomings, has been regarded as golden standard for the assessment of coronary arteries. Geodesic pattern of coronary arteries characterized by curvature, torsion and tortuosity ...
Clinical importance of elevated CK-MB and troponin I levels in congestive heart failure
(HEALTH COMMUNICATIONS INC, 2006)
Myocyte necrosis has been considered to play a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of congestive heart failure (CHF), which has usually evolved as a consequence of depletion of compensatory mechanisms and contractile ...
Sleep quality among relatively younger patients with initial diagnosis of hypertension: Dippers versus non-dippers
(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''. ...
