Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the role of inflammation-related biomarkers (SII, SIRI, NLR, PLR) in predicting mid-term mortality and restenosis in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).
  • During an average follow-up of about 21 months, researchers found that higher levels of these biomarkers correlated with increased mortality rates, particularly highlighting NLR as a significant independent risk factor.
  • However, no significant links were established between these biomarkers and the occurrence of restenosis in the study participants.

Background: The control of the cardiovascular system depends on the autonomic nerve system. Chronic anabolic andorogenic steroids (AAS) use causes sympathovagal imbalance and increases sympathetic nerve activity.

Objective: The reduction in heart rate from the peak exercise rate following the end of the exercise stress test is known as the heart rate recovery index (HRRI).

Background: Concomitant coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) infection and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are associated with increased adverse in-hospital outcomes.

Objectives: This study aimded to evaluate the angiographic, procedural, laboratory, and prognostic differences in COVID-19-positive and negative patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods: A single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted between November 2020 and August 2022 in a tertiary-level hospital.

Objective: We aimed to investigate the echocardiographic characteristics of workers with resting major electrocardiography (ECG) anomalies and risk factors of sudden cardiac death in the large Turkish workers population in different heavy industry sectors.

Methods: Between April 2016 and January 2020, 8668 consecutive ECGs were obtained and interpreted during health examinations of working in İstanbul, Turkey. ECGs were classified as major, minor anomaly, and normal according to the Minnesota code criteria.

Objective: Although electrocardiography scanning is routinely performed during the employ ment of employees in business sectors and during periodic controls, there is no large-scale study in our country that scans these electrocardiography data. The purpose of this study was to analyze the resting electrocardiography properties and basal clinical characteristics of the worker groups in a wide age range working in different business lines in the heavy industry sector.

Methods: Between April 2016 and January 2020, 9102 consecutive electrocardiographs were obtained during health examinations of working in İstanbul.
