Relation Between Serum Uric Acid to Albumin Ratio and Severity of Chronic Coronary Artery Disease.

Uric acid (UA) to albumin ratio (UAR) is an emerging marker to predict coronary artery disease (CAD)-related events. There is limited data on the relationship between UAR and the severity of the disease in chronic CAD patients. We aimed to evaluate UAR as an indicator for CAD severity using the Syntax score (SS).

An error in interpretation and real extraordinary electrocardiographic changes in patient with acute traumatic spondylolisthesis.

Background: Acute cervical spinal trauma may lead to cardiac effects by influencing cardiac sympathetic preganglionic fibers. Some of these effects, which are vital, may occur in ECG.

Case Presentation: A 52-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency department with acute traumatic spondylolisthesis at C6-C7 level and paraplegia.

CHA2DS2-Vasc score and saphenous vein graft disease in patients with coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Background: Saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) are still frequently used in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). However, the patency rate of SVGs is lower than arterial grafts. CHA2DS2-VASc score gives important information about the prognosis of various cardiovascular diseases.
