• To evaluate the impact of the regionalised Integrated Cardiovascular Clinical Network (ICCNet) on 30-day mortality among patients with myocardial infarction (MI) in an Australian rural setting. (mja.com.au)
  • As part of the Ontario Myocardial Infarction Database project the linked administrative data pertaining to these patients were used to examine cohort characteristics, cardiac procedures used and mortality rates for each of the 5 cohorts over time. (cmaj.ca)
  • Five-year risk of cardiac mortality in relation to initial severity and one-year changes in depression symptoms after myocardial infarction. (medhelp.org)
  • Interestingly, post-infarction coronary angiography and coronary artery bypass grafting rates were consistently lower in the older and the female patients throughout the study period. (cmaj.ca)
  • Low dose dobutamine echocardiography and myocardial contrast echocardiography were used to study patients before hospital discharge who had suffered a recent myocardial infarction and had a patent infarct-related artery (TIMI flow grade 3). (nih.gov)
  • In patients with post-infarct dysfunctioning myocardium but a patent infarct-related artery, microvascular integrity, as assessed by myocardial contrast echocardiography, is an indicator of myocardial viability in terms of preserved contractile reserve, as demonstrated by dobutamine infusion and functional recovery at follow-up. (nih.gov)
  • Patients receiving β-adrenergic blockers for an extended period following myocardial infarction have a higher chance of surviving. (benthamscience.com)
  • Although many patients benefited from β-blockers, many do not, including those with myocardial infarction, left ventricle dysfunction, chronic pulmonary disease, and elderly people. (benthamscience.com)
  • Beta-blockers in patients without heart failure after myocardial infarction. (benthamscience.com)
  • For AMI patients undergoing PCI, TMZ reduced circulating biomarkers of myocardial infarction, reduced values of ALT, AST, and glucose, and improved cardiac function compared with the control group. (hindawi.com)
  • John Brush Jr, MD, Sentara Cardiology Specialists, says his findings, published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes , might explain why heart attacks are missed more often in women than in men and should encourage physicians to expand their thinking when it comes to diagnosing female patients.

  • Imaging tests such as stress radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging or stress echocardiography can confirm a diagnosis when a person's history, physical exam, ECG and cardiac biomarkers suggest the likelihood of a problem. (wikipedia.org)
  • For the end point infarct size, estimated by biomarkers of myocardial necrosis, an overall pooled effect was SMD =−0.58, 95% CI: −0.96 to −0.19. (dovepress.com)
  • Heart failure (see the images below) may be caused by myocardial failure but may also occur in the presence of near-normal cardiac function under conditions of high demand. (medscape.com)
  • The results showed that a total of 278 proteins with significant changes were identified by quantitative proteomic analysis, of which 118 proteins were significantly upregulated and 160 proteins were significantly downregulated in myocardial tissue. (frontiersin.org)
  • Cardiac markers or cardiac enzymes are proteins that leak out of injured myocardial cells through their damaged cell membranes into the bloodstream. (wikipedia.org)
  • Now, the markers most widely used in detection of MI are MB subtype of the enzyme creatine kinase and cardiac troponins T and I as they are more specific for myocardial injury. (wikipedia.org)
  • In addition, a significant decrease in the activities of myocardial injury markers i.e., creatine phosphokinase-MB (CK-MB isoenzyme) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was also observed in the heart of ISP control group as compared to sham control. (scialert.net)
  • Of those, urokinase plasminogen activator surface receptor, adrenomedullin, and KIM-1 (kidney injury molecule 1) were also related to several markers of subclinical CVD in Prospective Investigation of Obesity, Energy production and Metabolism, reflecting myocardial or arterial pathologies.

  • In the US, about 1.0 million myocardial infarctions occur annually. (msdmanuals.com)
  • The possible underlying mechanism of the cardioprotective effect of T. terrestris could be due to restoration of endogenous myocardial antioxidant status or free radical scavenging activity along with correction of the altered hemodynamic parameters and preservation of histoarchitectural and ultrastructural alterations.
