متن کاملCarotid artery intima-media thickness and erectile dysfunction in patients with metabolic syndrome
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MS) has become a pandemic in Turkey, as is the case globally. Increase in carotid artery intima-media thickness (CIMT) and erectile dysfunction (ED) may be evident before the clinical signs of cardiovascular disease appear. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of increased CIMT and ED as markers of atherosclerotic disease in patients with MS. MATERIAL AND METH...
متن کاملElevated red blood cell distribution width in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients with metabolic syndrome.
Red blood distribution width (RDW) is a novel prognostic marker that reflects oxidative stress and inflammation in patients. Chronic inflammation has been proposed as a candidate mechanism between benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, the relationship between RDW and MetS in BPH patients is unclear. Men aged 50 year-old or older with BPH were recruited into ...
متن کاملCarotid artery Intima-Media thickness and cardiovascular risk factors in chronic hemodialysis patients
Introduction: Common carotid artery intima-media thickness (CCA-IMT) correlates with cardiovascular mortality in patients under hemodialysis. In this investigation, we evaluated relationship between CCA-IMT with dependent and independent cardiovascular risk factors in chronic hemodialysis patients. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 51 chronic hemodialysis patients, (31 males and 20 fema...
