ST2 in Stable and Unstable Ischemic Heart Diseases [PDF]

, 2015
Circulating suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) predicts cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in ischemic heart disease (IHD). ST2 does not correlate with traditional risk indicators as closely as N-terminal pro–brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP ...

Scleroderma Heart Disease

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2005
Heart disease is a frequent and often severe feature of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma). Cardiomyopathy, with ventricular diastolic dysfunction and arrhythmias, is the most important form, since it is associated with a very poor prognosis. The current challenge is to define its pattern and identify individuals at risk, but evaluation in vivo may be ...

Prognostic significance of positive family history in outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting: Do we need to update our assumptions?

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022
Background Recent research suggests a protective role for positive family history of premature cardiovascular disease (FHpCVD) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. We aimed to further investigate this unlikely association.
