Increased d-dimer levels predict cardiovascular mortality in patients with systolic heart failure
(SPRINGER, 2012)
D-dimer is a fibrin degradation product, and is implicated in pathologies of cardiovascular system. Thrombosis within the vascular system in relation with inflammation and stasis might be associated with poor prognosis in ...

(ISFAHAN UNIV MED SCIENCES, 2013)
Background: Cardiovascular diseases, cardiovascular risk factors, and mortality due to these situations are more frequently encountered in schizophrenic patients when compared with the general population. The mean platelet ...

Relationship between red cell distribution width and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(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 ...
COHgb levels predict the long-term development of acute myocardial infarction in CO poisoning
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2016)
Background: There are several studies evaluating the cardiac effects of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning during the acute period; however, the number of studies evaluating the long-term cardiac effects is limited. Objective: ...
Usefulness of Admission Red Cell Distribution Width as a Predictor of Early Mortality in Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
(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. ...
D-dimer is a predictor of cardiovascular death, and new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with systolic heart failure
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2017)
…
Usefulness of parathyroid hormone as a predictor of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2012)
Objective: To investigate the relation between parathyroid hormone (PTH) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF) in outpatients. Methods: One hundred consecutive patients who had preserved left ventricular ...
Sonographic Evaluation for Predicting the Presence and Severity of Coronary Artery Disease
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2013)
Purpose: The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between age, sex, obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), and both the presence and severity of coronary ...
Is Preoperative Eosinopenia an Independent Predictor of Early Mortality for Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery?
(FORUM MULTIMEDIA PUBLISHING, LLC, 2016)
Objective: Coronary artery bypass graft surgery in one of the most effective and widely used methods employed in the treatment of ischemic heart disease, but many factors to various degrees are directly associated with ...
