Aim: To study the associations between risk factors, clinical characteristics, severity of brachiocephalic artery (BCA) atherosclerosis and severity of coronary artery (CA) disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Material And Methods: The study included patients with any type of ACS and obstructive coronary artery disease confirmed by coronary angiography. A quantitative analysis of coronary angiography data was performed with an assessment of the number of CAs with significant stenosis and calculation of the SYNTAX score.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to evaluate the variability in measurements of atherosclerotic plaque (ASP) area and height in carotid arteries, proposing these as potential indicators for assessing the effectiveness of secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
- Analysis was conducted on patients with confirmed ACS and recorded ASP, revealing that variability in measurements between different studies was notably higher than that within the same study, indicating inconsistencies in data collection or methodology.
- Although some changes in ASP parameters were observed over a six-month follow-up, the differences were not statistically significant, highlighting the need for improved protocols and training for the specialists involved in these evaluations.
Aim To evaluate the endothelial function using an Endo-PAT2000 instrument before and after mental stress tests in patients with Tacotsubo syndrome (TS) during acute and long-term periods and to compare the obtained results with laboratory markers of endothelial dysfunction (ED).Material and methods This study included 45 patients with TS (mean age, 63.5±13.

The study included 97 patients with acute coronary syndrome. Mean age was 63±10 years; 60 men and 37 women.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTakotsubo syndrome (TS) is characterized with a reversible disorder of left ventricular contractility. At present time, it is established that various factors, both psycho-emotional and clinical, can trigger this disease. Notably, according to current opinions, coronary atherosclerosis may accompany TS and not be its exclusion criteria as it was previously thought.
