With the purpose of studying the condition of haemodynamics and function of the right ventricle in 28 patients with unstable stenocardia paired transesophageal electrocardiostimulation and bicycle ergometry [correction of veloergometry] were done with recording of echocardiographic indicators at the height of stress-tests. Important changes were identified in the right ventricular ejection fraction peculiar to changes of end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes in conditions of simulating myocardial infarction.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a major global health burden, encompassing a spectrum of conditions from unstable angina to acute myocardial infarction. Despite advancements in early detection and management, ACS is often complicated by the development of heart failure. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to identify factors associated with the development of heart failure following acute coronary syndrome.

Purpose: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), comprising unstable angina and acute myocardial infarction, is the most dangerous and fatal form of coronary heart disease. This study evaluates serum bile acids (BAs) and amino acids (AAs) as potential predictors of AMI in UA patients.
Patients And Methods: A total of 72 Non-Coronary Artery Disease (NCAD) patients, 157 UA patients, and 79 AMI patients were analyzed.

Objective: An association between white blood cell count (WBC-C) before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and prognosis has been established in patients undergoing PCI. However, the effect of WBC-C after PCI on the long-term prognosis of patients with unstable angina pectoris (UA) is unclear.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted in 1811 consecutive patients with UA.

Genotype-phenotype correlation and potential genetic risk in the compound heterozygosity for unstable hemoglobins (UHbs) and α-thalassemia were discussed. Capillary electrophoresis and gene sequencing helped to establish the diagnosis. Hematological analysis showed the following findings: MCV 80.

Background: Carotid webs are rare nonatherosclerotic disorders in the carotid artery and are increasingly recognized as factors of ischemic stroke in the young population. Asymptomatic webs can be treated with antithrombotic therapy, whereas symptomatic cases frequently require surgical interventions, including carotid endarterectomy (CEA). However, guidelines for the optimal timing of these treatments remain unestablished, especially compared to atherosclerotic stenotic lesions, due to the rarity of carotid webs.
