ASSOCIATION OF PLASMA TMAO VALUES WITH ANOTHER ISCHEMIC EVENT DURING LONG-TERM FOLLOW-UP IN PATIENTS WITH MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Anno:
2023
Background: Elevated plasma trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) levels, a metabolite derived from the intestinal microbiota, are closely related to atherosclerosis due to its involvement in increased inflammation, oxidative stress and cholesterol reverse transport.  Objectives: Blood samples were collected at admission from 81 patients who survived acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and from 10 healthy individuals. TMAO concentrations…
Season variability in atherosclerosis composition: insights from 1848 non-culprit coronary plaques.
Anno:
2023
Background. Several environmental and seasonal factors are thought to be crucial in the risk of acute coronary syndromes (ACS), including temperature, latitude, longitude, atmospheric air pressure, wind velocity and circadian period. However differences in coronary plaque composition according to season variation is still poorly understood.  Purpose. Our study aims to analyse…
ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION OR SOMETHING MORE? CASE REPORT AND CHALLENGES ASSESSMENT OF GIANT CORONARY ANEURYSM MANAGEMENT
Anno:
2023
Background: Coronary Artery Aneurysms (CAA) are defined as localized coronary artery dilations more than 1.5 times the diameter of the adjacent segments. Giant CAA (GCAAs) are rare coronary diseases and the presence of multiple CAAs, located in more than one coronary artery, is even more uncommon. The pathophysiology is unknown but…
