Chagas heart disease: pathophysiologic mechanisms, prognostic factors and risk stratification.
Chagas heart disease (CHD) results from infection with the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi and is the leading cause of infectious myocarditis worldwide. It poses a substantial public health burden due to high morbidity and mortality. CHD is also the most serious and frequent manifestation of chronic Chagas disease and appears in 20-40% of infected individuals between 10-30 years after the ...
متن کاملRisk stratification by CMR in Chagas' disease
Chagas’ disease (CD) still remains an important health problem in Latin America. Cardiac involvement in CD is associated wiht a high mortality and morbidity and one of the major challenges is to identify high risk patients.Therefore a risk score to predict death in CD was recently developed and validated by Rassi and colleagues. Considering the hole of myocardial fibrosis(MF) on the pathogenesi...

ارزش در معرض ریسک یکی از مهمترین معیارهای اندازه گیری ریسک در بنگاه های اقتصادی می باشد. برآورد دقیق ارزش در معرض ریسک موضوع بسیارمهمی می باشد و انحراف از آن می تواند موجب ورشکستگی و یا عدم تخصیص بهینه منابع یک بنگاه گردد. هدف اصلی این مطالعه بررسی کارایی روش copula-garch شرطی در برآورد ارزش در معرض ریسک پرتفویی متشکل از دو سهام می باشد و ارزش در معرض ریسک بدست آمده با روشهای سنتی برآورد ارزش د...
QT interval variations and mortality risk: Is there any relationship?
Abnormal prolongation and shortening of the electrocardiographic QT interval duration, which occur in the hereditary forms of long and short QT syndromes, are associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Even within the normal range, these altered durations are associated with an increased mortality risk in the general population. While extreme prolonga...
