Objective: This study aimed to investigate the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and cryptogenic stroke (CS) in patients diagnosed with patent foramen ovale (PFO) using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).

Methods: A retrospective, single-center study was conducted at a tertiary education and research hospital from January 2015 to December 2023. The study population included 1017 consecutive patients with sinus rhythm diagnosed with PFO, of whom 210 had CS.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate how in-hospital declines in hemoglobin levels affect long-term mortality and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who received primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
  • Researchers categorized patients based on hemoglobin decline into low (<3 g/dl or no decline) and high (≥3 g/dl) groups, analyzing their mortality and MACCE rates.
  • Findings revealed that patients with high hemoglobin decline experienced significantly higher mortality (65%) and MACCE rates (71%) compared to those with low decline, suggesting a concerning link between hemoglobin decline and adverse outcomes in STEMI patients after PCI.

Background: Controlling Nutritional Assessment (CONUT) score has been shown to have a higher predictive value compared to other nutritional scores in acute coronary syndrome.

Aim: To determine the relationship between CONUT score and long-term mortality in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS).

Methods: Between 2017 and 2020, 585 consecutive patients newly diagnosed and proven to have CCS by coronary angiography were included in the study.

Background: The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), based on white blood cell, neutrophil, and platelet counts, is a proposed marker of systemic inflammation and immune activation. This study aimed to explore the relationship between SII and complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) development in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 883 patients who underwent primary PCI for STEMI between January 2009 and December 2017.
