Using the Cardiac-Electrophysiological Balance Index to Predict Arrhythmia Risk After Colonoscopy.

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S., and colonoscopy is a critical tool for colon cancer screening and diagnosis.

Evaluation of risk factors for postpartum cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, a multicenter retrospective observational study.

The postpartum period is a well-defined risk factor for cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). However, it is unclear which patients are at risk for CVST in the postpartum period. Thus, determining some CVST risk factors in postpartum patients may be useful for preventing the disorder in this population.

Evaluation of the effect on stroke mechanism, stroke recurrence and clinical outcome in stroke patients with basilar artery atherosclerosis: A single centre retrospective observational study.

Objectives: Basilar artery atherosclerotic plaque is the predominant cause of stroke in the posterior circulation. İscheamic stroke caused basilar artery atherosclerosis faces a high risk of recurrence despite optimal medical treatment, which might lie in the less than ideal recognition of underlying stroke mechanism and lack of individualized treatment for strokes of different mechanisms. We aim in this study to investigate the effect on stroke mechanism, stroke recurrence and clinical outcome in stroke patients with basilar artery atherosclerosis.

Association of atherogenic indices with myocardial damage and mortality in COVID-19.

Background: Lipoproteins in cell membranes are related to membrane stability and play a role against microorganisms. Patients with COVID-19 often experience myocyte membrane damage.

Objective: This study aimed to search the relationship of atherogenic indices with myocardial damage and mortality in COVID-19.

Index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis patients treated with fingolimod.

Background: Fingolimod is indicated for the treatment of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and also targets cardiovascular system due to receptors on cardiomyocytes. Results of previous studies are controversial for the effect of fingolimod in terms of ventricular arrhythmias. Index of cardio-electrophysiological balance (iCEB) is a risk marker for predicting malignant ventricular arrhythmia.
