Hemoconcentration is a valuable predictor of prognosis in patients with acute heart failure

Recurrent Implantation Failure Is More Frequently Seen in Female Patients with Poor Prognosis

Plasma adrenomedullin, a new independent predictor of prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure.

BACKGROUND Adrenomedullin, a potent endogenous vasodilating and natriuretic peptide, may play an important role in the pathophysiology of chronic heart failure. Plasma levels of immunoreactive adrenomedullin were examined for prediction of prognosis in chronic heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS Plasma levels of immunoreactive-ADM (ir-ADM) were measured by radioimmunoassay in 117 chronic heart...

HEART RATE: A PREDICTOR OF EARLY MORTALITY IN PATIENTS WITH MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

A number of epidemiologic studies have reported a positive relationship between heart rate, cardiovascular disease and mortality. To examine the correlation between heart rate and mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), 2147 patients hospitalized in coronary care units in Isfahan were investigated in a cross-sectional study. Their heart rate was measured according to an electroca...

Metabolic flux as a predictor of heart failure prognosis.

The creatine kinase (CK) system is thought to play an integral role in maintaining levels of chemical energy in the form of ATP, which is essential for normal cardiac function. In the failing heart, it has long been established that multiple components of CK energy metabolism are commonly impaired and that these correlate with disease severity. A recent study published in Science Translational ...
