Cancer antigen-125 levels predict long-term mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(INFORMA HEALTHCARE, 2015)
Background: Cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) might be a useful biomarker to predict long-term mortality in patients with recent exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: A total of 87 consecutive ...
Association between oxidative stress index and post-CPR early mortality in cardiac arrest patients: A prospective observational study
(TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2015)
Objective: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a series of lifesaving actions that improve the chance of survival following cardiac arrest (CA). Many clinical and laboratory parameters, such as the presence of asystole, ...
Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 for risk stratification in outpatients with heart failure Reply
(TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2018)
…
Increased gamma-glutamyl transferase levels predict early mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2012)
Background: Increased gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) level is associated with increased oxidative stress, all-cause mortality, the development of cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome. However, its role in acute ...
Higher cancer antigen 125 level is associated with the presence of permanent atrial fibrillation in systolic heart failure patients
(ACTA CARDIOLOGICA, 2016)
Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia in heart failure (HF). Recent studies have shown that serum cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) levels are elevated in HF, and high levels of CA-125 in HF patients with ...
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 ...
Atypical antipsychotic use is an independent predictor for the increased mean platelet volume in patients with schizophrenia: A preliminary study
(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 ...
Influence of Regular Blood Donation Onto Flow Mediated Vasodilatation
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2013)
…
Regular blood donation improves endothelial function in adult males
(TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2016)
Objective: Endothelial dysfunction, secondary to systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, is known to play a major role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. It is hypothesized that the lower incidence ...
Elevated gamma glutamyl transferase levels are associated with the location of acute pulmonary embolism. Cross-sectional evaluation in hospital setting
(ASSOCIACAO PAULISTA MEDICINA, 2015)
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The location of embolism is associated with clinical findings and disease severity in cases of acute pulmonary embolism. The level of gamma-glutamyl transferase increases under oxidative stress-related ...
