We demonstrate that a novel functionalized interface, where molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles (nanoMIPs) are attached to screen-printed graphite electrodes (SPEs), can be utilized for the thermal detection of cardiac biomarker troponin I (cTnI). The ultrasensitive unique protein cTnI early diagnosis myocardial infraction (i.e., heart attacks), resulting in considerably lower patient m...

OBJECTIVE To investigate any seasonal variation in enzymatic size, mortality rate, and localization of ST-segment elevation myocardial infraction (STEMI). METHODS Between March 2003 and September 2006, all patients admitted to the Madani Heart Center, Tabriz, Iran with the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were included in this observational prospective study. Cases were divided ...

A 50-year-old male with a history of hemodialysis dependent chronic kidney disease presented to our emergency department with acute midsternal crushing chest pain. Patient was diagnosed with acute anterolateral wall Myocardial Infraction due to the presence of corresponding ST segment elevations in EKG and underwent emergent cardiac catheterization which revealed normal patent coronaries withou...

A failure of hemostasis and consequent formation of blood clots in the circulatory system can produce severe outcomes such as stroke and myocardial infraction. Pathological development of blood clots requires clinical intervention with fibrinolytic agents such as urokinase, tissue plasminogen activator and streptokinase. This review deals with streptokinase as a clinically important and cost-ef...

Oxidative and reductive stress are dual dynamic phases experienced by the cells undergoing adaptation towards endogenous or exogenous noxious stimulus. The former arises due to the imbalance between the reactive oxygen species production and antioxidant defenses, while the latter is due to the aberrant increase in the reducing equivalents. Mitochondrial malfunction is the common denominator ari...

In order to determine the relationship of paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia (PVT) to any antecedent (premonitory) ventricular arrhythmias during the early phases of acute myocardial infarctions, 24-hour Holter monitoring was begun on 52 male patients an average of 12.6 hours after the onset of prolonged chest pain that was documented as acute infraction. Twenty-four patients had PVT and 28 did...

The effect of digitalis therapy on 4-month posthospital cardiac mortality was investigated in 812 patients who survived the hospital phase of acute myocardial infraction. A stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify variables associated with increased mortality and to adjust for differences in confounding variables between digitalis and nondigitalis patients. The major ...

The goal of this study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity Myocardial Performance Index (MPI)for assessment acute right ventricular Infraction. This a descriptive type cross-sectional study. carried out in Coronary Care Unit, Department Cardiology, Sir Salimulla Medical College, Mitford Hospital. After exclusion total 72 patients were included study, which 24 had inferior MI with R...
