aim and background: patients with ischemic heart disease in acute stage experienced great anxiety and in compared with patients had less anxiety were affected 5 times more to ischemia, re-infarction, tachycardia, arrhythmias and ventricular fibrillation.  excessive anxiety delays recovery and increases the probability of their death in the first month. numerous studies have shown that heart dis...

Health Reports, Vol. 17, No. 1, November 2005 Statistics Canada, Catalogue 82-003 Diseases of the circulatory system are the major cause of illness, disability, and death in Canada.1 The most common of these diseases are ischemic heart disease (which includes acute myocardial infarction or heart attack ), congestive heart failure, and cerebrovascular disease (stroke). A heart attack is typicall...

Vitamin D deficiency is associated with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Cardiovascular diseases, in turn, are responsible for mortality of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We investigated whether a single parenteral dose of 25(OH) Vit D could improve the endothelial function in T2D patients with ischemic heart disease. A randomized, placebo-controlled, and double-blind trial was perf...

Major heart diseases such as ischemia and hypertrophic myocardiopathy are accompanied with significant changes in the passive mechanical properties and active contractility of myocardium. Identification of these changes helps diagnose heart diseases, monitor therapy, and design surgery. A dynamic cardiac elastography (DCE) framework is developed to assess the anisotropic viscoelastic passive pr...

Ischemic cardiac diseases are the leading causes of mortality in the developed and developing regions of the world. Although vascular problems may accompany coronary artery disease, association of primary cardiac tumors with ischemic heart disease and the treatment of the combination are rarely reported in the literature. This report presents a male patient who successfully underwent concomitan...

background: ischemic heart disease (ihd) is the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and a considerable part of these patients attend to emergency departments, which increases the burden to these busy departments. the aim of this study was to develop a prediction model enabling prediction of all cause emergency department (ed) visits in patients with documented coronary stenosis in ...
