PREVALENCE OF IRON DEFICIENCY AND ANEMIA IN PATIENTS ADMITTED TO HOSPITAL WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE.

Anemia and iron deficiency (ID) are important and common comorbidities that often coexist in patients with heart failure (HF). Both conditions, together or independently, are associated with poor clinical status and worse outcomes. The aim of our research was to study prevalence and clinical impact of ID and anemia in HF patients attending cardiology department of our hospital.

CARDIOVASCULAR EVENT ASSESSMENT IN PATIENTS WITH NONOBSTRUCTIVE CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE UNDERGOING DUAL ANTIPLATELET TREATMENT.

The aim of our study was to learn the differences in baseline presentation between NObCAD and obstructive coronary artery disease (ObCAD) subjects, to compare the likelihood of several clinical outcomes and the rate of primary endpoints between this groups. Out study included 165 patients: 115 patients with NObCAD ACS, 50 - with ObCAD ACS. Inclusion criteria: age >18 year; Presence of any atherosclerotic stenosis greater than 20% but less than 50% in the left main coronary artery, and greater than 20% but less than 70% in any other major epicardial coronary artery.
