Study of atheromatous plaque using intravascular ultrasound.
T he increasing incidence of metabolic risk factors in the modern world makes it reasonable to predict that atheromatous cardiovascular disease will become the primary cause of death worldwide by 2020. An understanding of the factors that influence the natural history of atherosclerosis and its complications is essential for the future development of strategies for prevention and therapeutic in...

نتایج این مطالعه نشان می دهد که مقدار کلسیم (یونیزه و تام)، منیزیم و فسفر به طور معنی داری تغییر پیدا کرد به جزء مقدار کلسیم تام و منیزیم در روش داخل عضلانی که تغییر معنی داری نداشته است. بر اساس نتایج این مطالعه می توان نتیجه گیری کرد که اکسی تتراساکلین بر روی مقادیر سرمی کلسیم و منیزیم تأثیر می گذارد باید مقدار این کاتیون ها در بیماران، در هنگامی که اکسی تتراسایکلین استفاده می شود مورد توجه ق...
15 صفحه اولCorrelation Between Tissue Densities in Computed Tomography and Three Different Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Units (In Vitro)
Background and Aim: Bone density is of great assistance in the selection of the proper implant site. The present study aimed to assess the correlation between tissue densities in computed tomography (CT) and three different cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) units. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, a radiographic phantom consisting of a transparent polymethyl methacrylate (PM...
متن کاملUsefulness of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography Evaluating the Clinical Importance of Coronary Artery Calcium and Noncalcified Plaque in Asymptomatic Patients
Direct noninvasive assessment of the characteristics of coronary atherosclerotic plaques is important to improve cardiovascular risk stratification and to monitor the course of coronary artery disease. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has become an effective tool for noninvasive evaluation of coronary artery calcium and plaque components. Using CCTA, atherosclerotic plaques can b...
متن کاملPrevalence of soft plaque detection with computed tomography.
oronary calcium assessment is being increasingly used in linical practice for risk stratification. Higher coronary alcium scores are associated with increased plaque burden nd increased cardiovascular risk. One concern is the presnce of isolated lipid-laden (soft) plaque in the setting of a egative study (zero calcium score). In this issue of the ournal, Hausleiter et al. (1) suggest that the a...
