Aims Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is the preferred reperfusion therapy
in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We conducted this study to evaluate the …

Objective: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a new predictor for cardiovascular risk
and mortality. The SYNTAX score is an angiographic tool used in grading the complexity of …

BACKGROUND: Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been associated with poor outcomes
in patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the role of NLR in …

A novel fully automated system is introduced to facilitate lesion detection in dynamic contrast-enhanced,
magnetic resonance mammography (DCE-MRM). The system extracts breast …

Objectives: To study the effect of endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture on the vascular
response to coronary stenting. Background: The introduction of drug‐eluting stents has …

Introduction. Red cell distribution width (RDW) has been associated with poor outcomes in
patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the role of RDW in …

Admission hyperglycemia is associated with high inhospital and long-term adverse events
in patients that undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to …

Platelet distribution width (PDW) measures the variability in platelet size and is a marker of
platelet activation. We investigated whether PDW is associated with the extent of coronary …

SciELO - Brasil - Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and in-hospital mortality in patients with acute
heart failure Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and in-hospital mortality in patients with acute …

Introduction The data about the incidence of subclavian venous (SCV) obstruction or
thrombosis after biventricular device implantation is limited. Therefore, we aimed to assess the …
