Role of CA-125 in Identification of Right Ventricular Failure in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(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, ...
Relation of Serum Parathyroid Hormone Level to Severity of Heart Failure
(EXCERPTA MEDICA INC-ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012)
Increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) level is associated with all-cause mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). However its role for identifying advanced HF has not been previously studied. We aimed to investigate ...
Usefulness of admission matrix metalloproteinase 9 as a predictor of early mortality after cardiopulmonary resuscitation in cardiac arrest patients
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2012)
Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have a central role in disease progression after ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, its prognostic significance in cardiac arrest (CA) patients having cardiopulmonary ...
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, ...

Microalbuminuria is Associated With the Severity of Coronary Artery Disease Independently of Other Cardiovascular Risk Factors
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2012)
The potential early predictive value of microalbuminuria (MA) in the estimation of atherosclerosis and the relation between the degree of urinary albumin excretion and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) were ...
Letter to editor: Clinical profile and predictors of in-hospital outcome in patients with heart failure
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2011)
…
C-type natriuretic peptide is associated with the severity of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012)
Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is characterized by vascular dysfunction, indicating the involvement of endothelial cells. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) plays a critical role in the coordination of ...
Central Diastolic Blood Pressure Is Associated With the Degree of Coronary Collateral Development
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2013)
Coronary collaterals (CCs) serve as alternative conduits for blood flow in obstructive coronary artery disease. We investigated the association of various components of blood pressure (BP) parameters with the the degree ...
