The polymorphic markers Ala455Val of the THBD gene and Arg353Gln of the F7 gene were tested for association with the frequency of unfavorable outcomes in patients with a history of acute ischemic heart disease. The study involved 1145 patients hospitalized in cardiology clinics of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan, Chelyabinsk, Perm, Stavropol, and Rostov-on-Don because of acute ischemic heart disease.

Aim: Effects of levosimendan treatment compared to dopamine treatment on a clinical course, central hemodynamics and prognosis in patients with resistant cardiac failure (RCF).

Material And Methods: A total of 30 RCF patients (16 females and 14 males aged 50-80 years) were divided into two groups. Patients of group 1 received inotropic drug levosimendan intravenously in the initial dose 12-24 mcg/kgfor 10 min with subsequent 24-hour infusion in a dose 0.

With the aim to assess prevalence of aortic stenosis (AS) and prognostic value of its detection among survivors of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) we examined 851 patients included into multicenter prospective study of risk factors of serious vascular events and death after acute coronary syndrome. The patients were enrolled into the study in stable condition on 10th day after onset of myocardial infarction (MI) or unstable angina (UA). Examination involved medical history, laboratory tests and echocardiography.

Patients (n=52) with acute myocardial infarction (MI) and diabetes mellitus type 2 older than 18 years were distributed within first 24 hours of MI into 2 groups. In patients of group 1 (n=28) standard therapy was supplemented with trimetazidine (70 mg/day) for 30 days, patients of group 2 received only standard therapy. The following parameters were assessed: rate of recurrent MIs, inhospital mortality, dynamics of MB CR, rate of development and progression of heart failure, dynamics of brain natriuretic peptide, parameters of echocardiogram.

Forty patients with acute Q-wave myocardial infarction and Killip class I-II heart failure were randomized to treatment with esmolol (n=22) or just to standard therapy (n=18) and followed up for 30 days. Esmolol treated patients had significantly lower in-hospital mortality (p<0.02), less frequently had postinfarction angina (p<0.
