(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2014)
Objective: This study was aimed to investigate the effects of olmesartan or nebivolol treatment on blood pressure and some endothelial function markers in newly diagnosed patients with stage 1 essential hypertension. ...
Diagnostic Accuracy of 16- Versus 64-Slice Multidetector Computed Tomography Angiography In The Evaluation of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafts: A Comparative Study
(Oxford Univ Press, 2012)
OBJECTIVES: Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography, which is used for native coronary vessels and bypass graft (CABG) imaging is a non-invasive test. Here, we aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of 16- ...
Simultaneous Subacute Thrombosis of Bare Metal Coronary Stents in Two Different Arteries Early After Clopidogrel Cessation
(Via Medica, 2012)
Coronary stent thrombosis is a rare event leading to ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and death. Although early thrombosis of drug-eluting and bare metal stents is relatively frequent, simultaneous thrombosis of ...
Evaluating The Effects Of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy On Pathophysiological Pathways Of Heart Failure Using Surrogate Biomarkers
(Via Medica, 2018)
Background: Several studies have investigated the effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on heart failure (HF), but none have evaluated the pathophysiological pathways involved in a single group of patients. ...
Effects Of Pacemaker And Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Electrodes On Tricuspid Regurgitation And Right Sided Heart Functions
(Via Medica, 2015)
Background: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of trans-tricuspid placement of permanent pacemaker (PPM), implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) leads prospectively ...

(Aves, 2014)
Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of cabergoline use in patients with Parkinson's disease on valvular and biventricular functions. Methods: In this observational cohort study, patients with Parkinson ...
Emergency Polytetrafluoroethylene-Covered Stent Implantation To Treat Right Coronary Artery Perforation During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
(Via Medica, 2012)
Coronary artery perforations are life-threatening complications with a poor outcome. Historically, if the perforation was not controlled using conservative methods such as prolonged balloon inflation and protamine ...
Total White Blood Cell Count Is Associated With The Presence, Severity And Extent Of Coronary Atherosclerosis Detected By Dual-Source Multislice Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography
(Via Medica, 2011)
Background: Total white blood cell (WBC) count has been consistently shown to be an independent risk factor and predictor for future cardiovascular outcomes, regardless of disease status in coronary artery disease (CAD). ...
The Use Of Amplatzer Vascular Plug (R) To Treat Coronary Steal Due To Unligated Thoracic Side Branch Of Left Internal Mammary Artery: Four Year Follow-Up Results
(Via Medica, 2012)
Left internal mammary artery (LIMA) is the most commonly used graft during coronary bypass surgery. LIMA side branches are clipped during surgery in order to prevent coronary steal. In cases of patent LIMA side branches, ...
