Management in unstable angina [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1988
That unstable angina is a serious and potentially dangerous condition which requires immediate attention is a statement with which few clinicians would disagree. However, if it is examined more closely and attempts are made to establish exactly just how serious and how dangerous, an apparent confusion emerges.

Fractional Flow Reserve Directed Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Optimization Using High‐Definition Intravascular Ultrasound in Non‐ST‐Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome Versus Chronic Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)‐guided optimization of suboptimal fractional flow reserve (FFR) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results in a significant increase in both post‐PCI FFR and minimal lumen and stent areas (MLA and MSA, respectively).

Coronary Plaque Characteristics Assessed by Optical Coherence Tomography and Plasma Lipoprotein(a) Levels in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, but its influence on plaque characteristics at optical coherence tomography (OCT) evaluation is not fully understood. Aims This study seeks to explore the impact of Lp(a) levels on plaque morphology as assessed by OCT in a very high‐risk subset of patients ...

Health behaviour of patients with unstable angina pectoris

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2018
Introduction. The illnesses of the cardiovascular system are the biggest cause of death in Poland [9,10]. Unstable angina pectoris is the most frequently occurring manifestation of the acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Prognosis in unstable angina. [PDF]

Heart, 1976
A retrospective study was made of 158 patients with unstable angina admitted to a coronary care unit over a 4-year period. Twenty patients (13 per cent) had myocardial infarcts while in hospital, and of these 3 died; three others died without preceding evidence of myocardial infarction. There was thus an acute mortality rate of 4 per cent.

Incidence and 1‐Year Prognostic of Unstable Angina After High‐Sensitivity Troponin Assessment

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Incidence and prognostic of unstable angina after high‐sensitivity troponin assesment is controversial. Aims This study evaluated prognostic of a contemporary population of patients with UA defined using high sensitive T troponin (T hs‐cTn) measurements and with significant coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods Consecutive patients

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A critical appraisal

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In spite of intensive research efforts driving spectacular advances in terms of prevention and treatments, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading health burden, accounting for 32% of all deaths (World Health Organization. “Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs).” WHO, February 1, 2017, https://www.who.int/news‐room/fact‐sheets/detail ...

TGF-β1 and TGFβR2 Gene Polymorphisms in Patients with Unstable Angina

Biomedicines, 2023
Acute coronary syndromes result from a sudden reduction in the lumen of a coronary artery as a result of atherosclerotic plaque rupture, its swelling or the formation of thrombotic lesions.

Extracting Angina Symptoms from Clinical Notes Using Pre-Trained Transformer Architectures [PDF]

AMIA Annual Symposium 2020, 2020
Anginal symptoms can connote increased cardiac risk and a need for change in cardiovascular management. This study evaluated the potential to extract these symptoms from physician notes using the Bidirectional Encoder from Transformers language model fine-tuned on a domain-specific corpus.

Clinical and Technical Predictors of Treatment Success After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy in Calcific Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is increasingly used to treat coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural factors associated with IVL treatment success. Methods This retrospective analysis included 454 patients (73 ± 9 years, 75% male) treated with IVL from the multicenter BENELUX‐IVL ...
