Poor Nutritional Status Is Associated with Arrhythmic Events on 24-Hour Holter Recording.

Background: Malnutrition is associated with cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Arrhythmias may be the cardiac consequences of malnutrition.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to evaluate the association between prognostic nutritional index (PNI), Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, and arrhythmic events on 24-h electrocardiography (ECG) Holter recording in patients without manifested arrhythmia.

Prognostic Nutritional Index as a New Prediction Tool for Coronary Collateral Development.

Background: Nutritional status is a predictor of the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. The association between the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), which is an immunonutritional parameter, and cardiovascular diseases has been extensively studied in the literature.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate whether PNI is associated with coronary collateral development.

Nutritional status and severity of coronary artery disease.

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), a simple tool to assess nutritional status, and coronary artery disease severity and complexity in patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Methods: This study is a retrospective analysis of 822 patients undergoing coronary angiography. Patients with previous revascularization were excluded.

Impact of Admission Blood Glucose on Coronary Collateral Flow in Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

In patients with acute myocardial infarction, glucose metabolism is altered and acute hyperglycemia on admission is common regardless of diabetes status. The development of coronary collateral is heterogeneous among individuals with coronary artery disease. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether glucose value on admission is associated with collateral flow in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients.
