Dronedarone is a novel class III antiarrhythmic drug with moderate efficacy in preventing atrial arrhythmias. However, only few data from the real-world use of dronedarone with limited electrocardiographic monitoring are…
Developing countries face challenges in providing the best reperfusion strategy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction because of limited resources. This causes wide variation in the provision of cardiac…
Living alone is associated with adverse outcomes after acute coronary syndromes (ACS). One potential mediator of the relation between partner status and outcomes after ACS is physical activity. To evaluate…
Although an increased pulmonary trunk (PT) diameter to ascending aorta (AA) diameter ratio (PT/AA ratio) is associated with pulmonary hypertension, the prognostic utility of this metric remains unexamined. We investigated…
Prompt percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with improved survival in patients presenting with cardiac arrest. Few studies, however, have focused on patients with cardiac arrest not selected for coronary angiography….
Treatment of all coronary arteries is important to improve the prognosis of acute coronary syndrome after early reperfusion of the culprit lesion. Early statin treatment has been reported to cause…
Although inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes, the extent of inflammation is not routinely assessed, and its prognostic implications in patients with non–ST-segment elevation acute coronary…
