Dept. of Cardiology, SKIMS, Srinagar, India. Electronic address:
Background: Copeptin is a novel biomarker of potential diagnostic and prognostic value in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between plasma copeptin levels at admission and final infarct size in STEMI patients.
Materials And Methods: This observational study was conducted in Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical sciences, Srinagar, for a period of 1year.
Pulmonary function derangements in isolated or predominant mitral stenosis - Preoperative evaluation with clinico-hemodynamic correlation.

MPS Hospital, Department of Cardiac Surgery, Peoples Friendship University of Russia Moscow Russian Federation.
Introduction: It is well known that mitral stenosis (MS) is complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH) of varying degrees. The hemodynamic derangement is associated with structural changes in the pulmonary vessels and parenchyma and also functional derangements. This article analyzes the pulmonary function derangements in 25 patients with isolated/predominant mitral stenosis of varying severity.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFImmune inflammation is an important link in pathogenesis of chronic heart failure (CHF). It has been proven that hyperproduction of proinflammatory cytokines (TNFa, IL-6, IL-1, etc) with associated endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress affect unfavorably clinico-hemodynamic parameters and prognosis of life of patients. However attempt to augment efficacy of treatment of CHF by means of inclusion of TNFa activity inhibitors in the complex of main remedies turned out unsuccessful.
