Patients on statins with elevated transaminases: Frequency of follow‐up creatine kinase testing and gastroenterology referral

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To quantify how often creatine kinase (CK) is measured after newly elevated aminotransferases in statin users, and whether absent CK data are associated with gastroenterology (GI) referrals. Methods Retrospective chart review of adult outpatients on statins with a first alanine/aspartate aminotransferase (ALT/AST) elevation during a 5 ...

Impact of empiric potassium supplementation on mortality, sudden cardiac arrest and stroke in furosemide initiators

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

External validation of the BAN‐ADHF diuretic‐resistance score in the DAPA‐RESIST clinical trial

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Diuretic resistance in worsening heart failure (HF) is associated with poorer outcomes and, although common, can be challenging to identify. The recently developed BAN‐ADHF score can potentially identify patients with worsening HF at risk of diuretic resistance.

Myocardial performance index and cardiovascular diseases

Echocardiography, 2023
AbstractThe Myocardial Performance Index (MPI), also known as the Tei Index, is a measure of the overall performance of the heart that takes into account both systolic and diastolic function. It is a non‐invasive echocardiographic index that provides information about the efficiency of the heart's pumping action. The MPI is a useful tool for evaluating

[Myocardial performance index].

open access: yesAnadolu kardiyoloji dergisi : AKD = the Anatolian journal of cardiology, 2008
Myocardial performance index (MPI) is a numeric value, which could be obtained by using cardiac time intervals. This numeric value is defined as the sum of isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) and isovolumetric relaxation time (IRT) divided by ejection time (ET) and could be calculated for each ventricle individually.

Myocardial Performance Index in Evaluation of Acute Right Ventricular Myocardial Infarction

Echocardiography, 2004
The goal of this study was to evaluate the role of Doppler time interval‐derived myocardial performance index (MPI) in the setting of acute right ventricular myocardial infarction (RVMI). Inferior myocardial infarction is accompanied by RVMI in over a third of cases. We do not have easily applicable noninvasive tools for reliably quantifying the right

Index of myocardial performance after early phase of myocardial infarction in relation to its location

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2004
To define the degree of heart derangement in recent myocardial infarction (MI) occurring in different wall locations of myocardium, we echocardiographically evaluated left ventricular volumes, ejection fraction, wall-motion score index, isovolumetric contraction and relaxation time, ejection time, and index of myocardial performance in 74 patients with

Feasibility of Measuring Myocardial Performance Index of the Right Ventricle in Anesthetized Patients

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2010
Myocardial performance index, the sum of the 2 isovolumic times divided by the ejection time, contains information on global systolic and diastolic function.
