How to detect silent myocardial ischemia.

Postgraduate medicine

Weiner DA.
PMID: 2813228
Postgrad Med. 1989 Nov 15;86(7):81-4, 95-7. doi: 10.1080/00325481.1989.11700775.

Anginal pain alone is not a sensitive marker of ischemia. In one study of 2,014 completely asymptomatic men, 2.5% were found to have silent ischemia when they underwent treadmill exercise testing. Another method of detection, ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring, can...

Methylprednisolone pulse therapy and intravenous cyclophosphamide therapy combined with cocktail therapy in severe pediatric Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis patient.

Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a common self-limited vasculitis in children. The long-term prognosis depends on renal involvement. In severe Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) patients, >50 % have crescent formation and nephrotic syndrome that are important predicted outcomes. Therefore, for...

Prognostic models in coronary artery disease: Cox and network approaches.

Royal Society open science

Mora A, Sicari R, Cortigiani L, Carpeggiani C, Picano E, Capobianco E.
PMID: 26064595
R Soc Open Sci. 2015 Feb 11;2(2):140270. doi: 10.1098/rsos.140270. eCollection 2015 Feb.

Predictive assessment of the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases is usually provided by computational approaches centred on Cox models. The complex interdependence structure underlying clinical data patterns can limit the performance of Cox analysis and complicate the interpretation of...

Effects of Mitral Balloon Valvuloplasty on Coronary Blood Flow and Flow Reserve.

The Journal of heart valve disease

Bektaş O, Yüksel Günaydın Z, Karagöz A, Kaya A, Kırış T, Serdar Yılmazer M, Dağdeviren B.
PMID: 27997779
J Heart Valve Dis. 2015 Nov;24(6):729-735.

BACKGROUND: While the effects of percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV) on left ventricular, right ventricular, left atrial and right atrial functions have been well demonstrated, the effects on coronary flow velocity remain unclear. The study aim was to evaluate...

A review of the role of anticoagulation in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease.

The International journal of angiology : official publication of the International College of Angiology, Inc

Whayne TF.
PMID: 24293975
Int J Angiol. 2012 Dec;21(4):187-94. doi: 10.1055/s-0032-1330232.

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a major medical/surgical problem associated with high risk for coronary heart disease (CHD). Anticoagulation plays a significant role in the management of the PAD patient. However, evidence-based medicine supports only select anticoagulants, mainly antiplatelet...

Dipyridamole Treatment Prior to Stroke Onset: Examining Post-stroke Cerebral Circulation and Outcome in Rabbits.

Translational stroke research

d'Esterre CD, Tichauer KM, Aviv RI, Eisert W, Lee TY.
PMID: 24323622
Transl Stroke Res. 2011 Jun;2(2):186-94. doi: 10.1007/s12975-010-0062-0. Epub 2011 Jan 11.

Clinical observations have indicated that secondary treatment with dipyridamole (DIP) may ameliorate stroke severity. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of pre-stroke DIP treatment on stroke outcome in a rabbit model of embolic occlusion. Twenty...

Preanalytical Procedures for DNA Studies: The Experience of the Interinstitutional Multidisciplinary BioBank (BioBIM).

Biopreservation and biobanking

Palmirotta R, Ludovici G, De Marchis ML, Savonarola A, Leone B, Spila A, De Angelis F, Della Morte D, Ferroni P, Guadagni F.
PMID: 24850204
Biopreserv Biobank. 2011 Mar;9(1):35-45. doi: 10.1089/bio.2010.0027.

Preanalytical variables, including the anticoagulants and stabilizing agents, time, storage temperature, and methods of DNA extraction applied to blood samples, may affect quality and quantity of isolated nucleic acids for future genomic applications. Considering the large number of collected...

Comparison of Hemodynamic Effects and Negative Predictive Value of Normal Adenosine Gated Myocardial Perfusion Scan With or Without Caffeine Abstinence.

World journal of nuclear medicine

Uz Zaman M, Fatima N, Zaman A, Zaman U, Tahseen R.
PMID: 27651740
World J Nucl Med. 2016 Sep;15(3):190-5. doi: 10.4103/1450-1147.176887.

For vasodilator stress, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with at least 12-h caffeine abstinence is recommended, as it attenuates cardiovascular hyperemic response of adenosine and dipyridamole. However, many published conflicting results have shown no significant effect upon perfusion abnormalities in...

OBJECTIVE: To compare the immediate postoperative outcomes of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia undergoing Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP) with and without full anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy at the time of surgery.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective review...

Higher event rate in patients with known CAD despite a normal myocardial perfusion scan.
