Impact of Female Sex on Death and Bleeding After Fibrinolytic Treatment of Myocardial Infarction in GUSTO V

wugongliang submitted, created time 1 year 2 months (www.discover8.com)

Background Women with acute myocardial infarction are more likely than men to experience reinfarction, bleeding, or death. This difference has been hypothesized to be due to older age, treatment delay, and comorbidities in women. Use of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities may also differ. There is controversy regarding whether female sex is an independent risk factor for death and/or bleeding

Cardioprotection Afforded by Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Therapy Is Mediated by Cyclooxygenase-2 via a Nuclear Factor-{kappa}B–Dependent Pathway

007RA submitted, created time 1 year 3 months (circ.ahajournals.org)

"These data provide strong genetic evidence that COX-2 is an obligatory downstream effector of iNOS-dependent cardioprotection and that NF-{kappa}B is a critical link between iNOS and COX-2. Thus, iNOS imparts its protective effects, at least in part, by recruiting NF-{kappa}B, leading to COX-2 upregulation. However, COX-2 does not play an important cardioprotective role under basal conditions"

A Common Variant on Chromosome 9p21 Affects the Risk of Myocardial Infarction

addict submitted, created time 1 year 6 months (www.sciencemag.org)

"The global endemic of cardiovascular diseases calls for improved risk assessment and treatment. Here, we describe an association between myocardial infarction (MI) and a common sequence variant on chromosome 9p21. This study included a total of 4587 cases and 12,767 controls. "

Effect of Rosiglitazone on the Risk of Myocardial Infarction and Death from Cardiovascular Causes

cappuccion submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (content.nejm.org)

Rosiglitazone is widely used to treat patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but its effect on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has not been determined. We conducted searches of the published literature, the Web site of the Food and Drug Administration, and a clinical-trials registry maintained by the drug manufacturer (GlaxoSmithKline). Rosiglitazone was associated with a significant increase in the risk of myocardial infarction and with an increase in the risk of death from cardiovascular causes that had borderline significance

Meta-Analysis Comparing the Effectiveness and Adverse Outcomes of Antifibrinolytic Agents in Cardiac Surgery

DanyC submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (circ.ahajournals.org)

"All antifibrinolytic agents were effective in reducing blood loss and transfusion. There were no significant risks or benefits for mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, or renal failure. However, high-dose aprotinin was associated with a statistically significant increased risk of renal dysfunction."

Influenza epidemics and acute respiratory disease activity are associated with a surge in autopsy-confirmed coronary heart disease death: results from 8 years of autopsies in 34 892 subjects

"Influenza epidemics are associated with a rise in autopsy-confirmed coronary deaths. Influenza vaccination should be advocated for patients at high risk of developing cardiovascular events. "

Dietary Intakes of Flavonols and Flavones and Coronary Heart Disease in US Women

badboy submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (aje.oxfordjournals.org)

"Dietary flavonols and flavones are subgroups of flavonoids that have been suggested to decrease the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). The authors prospectively evaluated intakes of flavonols and flavones in relation to risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction and fatal CHD in the Nurses' Health Study. They assessed dietary information from the study's 1990, 1994, and 1998 food frequency questionnaires and computed cumulative average intakes of flavonols and flavones. Cox proportional hazards regression with time-varying variables was used for analysis

Relationship between circulating endothelial cells and the predicted risk of cardiovascular events in acute coronary syndromes

amanda submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (eurheartj.oxfordjournals.org)

"There is a significant and positive correlation between increasing CECs and increasing CV risk in ACS. The diagnostic accuracy of CECs in this setting is only ‘moderate’. Whilst it is good at confirming the presence of MI, a CEC value of <7.0/mL is less reliable at confidently excluding patients without disease.

"In this large prospective cohort of apparently healthy men, migraine was associated with increased risk of major CVD, which was driven by increased risk of myocardial infarction.

Effects of Percutaneous Coronary Interventions in Silent Ischemia After Myocardial Infarction

badboy submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (jama.ama-assn.org)

"Among patients with recent MI, silent myocardial ischemia verified by stress imaging, and 1- or 2-vessel coronary artery disease, PCI compared with anti-ischemic drug therapy reduced the long-term risk of major cardiac events. "

Which common genetic variation is linked to heart attack ?

crackpot submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (english.people.com.cn)

Researchers found individuals with the variation have a 1.64-fold greater risk of suffering a heart attack (myocardial infarction) and a 2.02-fold greater risk of suffering a heart attack early in life (before age 50 for men and before age 60 for women) than those without the variation. This study was now project led by the Icelandic genomics company deCODE Genetics, along with U.S. researchers at Emory University School of Medicine, Duke University, and the University of Pennsylvania.

Identifying Heart Failure Patients at High Risk for Near-Term Cardiovascular Events With Serial Health Status Assessments

julie submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (circ.ahajournals.org)

"Identification of heart failure outpatients at increased risk for clinical deterioration remains a critical challenge, with few tools currently available to assist clinicians. We tested whether serial health status assessments with the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) can identify patients at increased risk for mortality and hospitalization. "

Effect of Tilarginine Acetate in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock

medal submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (jama.ama-assn.org)

"Tilarginine, 1-mg/kg bolus and 5-hour infusion, did not reduce mortality rates in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock complicating MI despite an open infarct artery. Early mortality rates in this patient group are high. Further research is needed to develop effective therapies for patients with cardiogenic shock following acute MI. "

Microcirculatory dysfunction in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: cause, consequence, or both?

Plasma matrix metalloproteinase-9 and left ventricular remodelling after acute myocardial infarction in man: a prospective cohort study

julie submitted, created time 1 year 9 months (eurheartj.oxfordjournals.org)

"Both MMP-9 and MMP-2 are elevated following AMI. The biphasic profile of plasma MMP-9 is related to LV remodelling and function following AMI in man. Higher early levels of MMP-9 associate with the extent of LV remodelling and circulating WBC levels. In contrast, higher plateau levels later after AMI are associated with relative preservation of LV function. Temporal profile, rather than absolute magnitude, of MMP-9 activity appears to be important for LV remodelling after AMI. "
