Article Synopsis
- The study assessed left ventricular ultrasound parameters in postmenopausal breast cancer patients undergoing anti-cancer therapy, focusing on cardiac dysfunction.
- A total of 74 patients were monitored over two years, and 36.5% developed cardiac issues (CTRCD), with no signs of symptomatic heart failure reported.
- Key findings indicated that global longitudinal strain (GLS) and ejection fraction (EF) declined in patients with CTRCD, while certain measurements remained normal in those without cardiac dysfunction.
Background: In coronary artery disease (CAD), an alternative way of improvement of blood circulation in the ischemic area of the myocardium is coronary collateral circulation. Our study aimed to investigate the rheological parameters of blood and nitric oxide (NO) content in patients with various degrees of collateral development and the likelihood of the influence of blood fluidity on collateral angiogenesis.
Methods: We studied patients with stable CAD who underwent elective coronary angiography and a control group with the same mean age.
Coronary collateral circulation (CCC) has been shown to have a prognostic role in acute myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to identify factors associated with CCC development in patients with acute myocardial ischemia. In the present analysis, 673 consecutive patients aged 27 - 94 years (64.

This study aimed to identify the key socio-demographic determinants of premature and avoidable RTI mortality in reproductive-aged women (15-49 years) in Georgia.
Materials And Methods: The study employed verbal autopsy data from the second national reproductive age mortality survey (RAMOS 2014).
Purpose: Worldwide, noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of premature death of women, taking the highest toll in developing countries. This study aimed to identify key socio-demographic determinants of NCD mortality in reproductive-aged women (15-49 years) in Georgia.
Materials And Methods: The study employed the verbal autopsy data from the second National Reproductive Age Mortality Survey 2014.
