Association between the triglyceride–glucose index and severity of coronary artery disease
Background The triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index, which is a reliable surrogate marker of insulin resistance (IR), has been associated with cardiovascular diseases.

ObjectiveTwo-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) has been used as a diagnostic tool for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, whether vessel supplied myocardial strain and strain rate (SR) predict the severity of coronary artery ...

Development of the Coronary Vessel System [PDF]
Formation of the coronary vessels is a fundamental event in heart development. Congenital abnormalities in the coronary system can have major deleterious effects on heart function. It is also possible that subtle variation in the patterning of coronary vessels has significant but uncharacterized effects on myocardial structure and function. In addition,

Immunolocalization of KATP channel subunits in mouse and rat cardiac myocytes and the coronary vasculature. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Electrophysiological data suggest that cardiac KATP channels consist of Kir6.2 and SUR2A subunits, but the distribution of these (and other KATP channel subunits) is poorly defined.

Anatomic and Hemodynamic Plaque Characteristics for Subsequent Coronary Events
ObjectivesWhile coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) enables the evaluation of anatomic and hemodynamic plaque characteristics of coronary artery disease (CAD), the clinical roles of these characteristics are not clear.

Diabetes mellitus and ischemic heart disease. the role of ion channels [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus is one the strongest risk factors for cardiovascular disease and, in particular, for ischemic heart disease (IHD). The pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia in diabetic patients is complex and not fully understood: some diabetic ...

Generalised anxiety disorder doubles risk of cardiovascular events in people with stable coronary heart disease [PDF]
Does generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) affect cardiovascular events associated with coronary heart disease (CHD)? Population: 1015 patients with stable coronary heart. Eligible patients had at least one of the following: history of myocardial infarction
