Background To investigate whether insufficient myocardial reperfusion plays an important role in left ventricular (LV)remodeling and on the prognosis for functional recovery in patients with TIMI flow
Background Here we were to assess the possible associations between variations in CCL5, CCL2, CCR5, and CCR2genes and susceptibility to myocardial infarction (MI) in a case-control study.Methods Genot
Background It is unclear whether selective infarct-related artery (IRA) administration of glycoprotein Ⅱb/Ⅲa receptor inhibitors (GPI) may further improve myocardial reperfusion but do not increase ma
Objective To determine the safety and efficacy of short-term intensive atorvastatin therapy among Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome.Methods A total of 235 patients with acute coronary synd
Background Remodeling of the extracellular matrix plays a major role in left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction.Cathepsin S (CTSS) is a member of the lysosomal cysteine protease family
Background Myocardial bridging (MB) is defined as an intramural segment of a coronary artery that normally courses epicardially.MB is usually a benign condition; however, some cases resulting in myoca
Background Analysis of the relative factors about reperfusion arrhythmia (RA) during percutaneous coronaryintervention (PCI) in 12 hours of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).To conclude
Background Electroacupuncture (EA) has been widely accepted as a useful cardiac protection strategy with low or no risk in the clinical prevention of cardiac disease.However, the physiological mechani
Background To compare the sexual differences in risk factors and coronary artery features of patients with premature coronary artery disease (PCAD).Methods Two hundred and seventy patients with PCAD w
Background Myocardial injury during percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)occurs in 10-40% of cases and is often characterized by a slight increase in the markers of myocardial necrosis, without symp
