Investigation was performed on 54 patients with angina pectoris. The patients were divided into three groups. Group 1 included patients with angina pectoris of functional classes I-II, group 2 consisted of the patients with angina pectoris classes III-IV, and group 3--unstable angina pectoris. All the patients underwent investigation of content and ratio of some fraction of the phospholipids and cholesterol metabolites in the thrombocyte membranes. Results of investigation showed damage of phospholipid metabolism of the thrombocyte membranes. This is manifested by increased in content of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPCh), phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidyletanolamine (PEA), decreased levels of sphingomyelin (SM) and phosphatidylcholine (PCh). The angina pectoris of effort of the functional classes III-IV and unstable angina pectoris were manifested by severe damage of lipid metabolism in the thrombocyte membranes.

Background: Reduced insulin secretion is linked to diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD), but its role in non-diabetic CVD patients is unclear. The homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-β) measures pancreatic β-cell function. This study investigated the association between HOMA-β and adverse cardiovascular events in non-diabetic CVD patients.

An 83-year-old female patient presented with angina pectoris, hemoglobinuria and jaundice. Laboratory diagnostics proved difficult due to hemolysis in all blood tubes, following re-evaluation after warming the blood sample.With low haptoglobin, elevated lactate dehydrogenase and elevated indirect bilirubin, we made a suspected diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia with cold antibodies, which was confirmed through a positive Coombs test and detection of C3d-loaded erythrocytes.

Repeated use of nitroglycerin results in a loss of its vasodilatory efficacy which limits its clinical use for the treatment of angina pectoris. This tolerance phenomenon is a defining characteristic of all compounds classified as nitrodilators, which includes NTG as well as S-nitrosothiols and dinitrosyl iron complexes. These compounds vasodilate via activation of soluble guanylate cyclase, although they do not release requisite amounts of free nitric oxide (NO) and some do not even cross the plasma membrane.

Due to their strong aromaticity and difficulties in chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity control, asymmetric hydrogenation of naphthol derivatives to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthols has remained a long-standing challenge. Herein, we report the first example of homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation of naphthol derivatives catalyzed by tethered rhodium-diamine catalysts, affording a wide array of optically pure 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthols in high yields with excellent regio-, chemo-, and enantioselectivities (up to 98% yield and >99% ee). Mechanistic studies with experimental and computational approaches reveal that fluorinated solvent 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) plays vital roles in the control of reactivity and selectivity, and 1-naphthol is reduced via a cascade reaction pathway, including dearomative tautomerization, 1,4-hydride addition, and 1,2-hydride addition in sequence.

Objective: Vascular inflammation affects acute coronary syndrome (ACS) occurrence in patients with stable angina. Coronary inflammation can be represented by the pericoronary fat attenuation index (FAI).This study investigated the quantitative prognostic value of plaque characteristics and FAI in patients with stable angina.
