TL;DR: Rosiglitazone for 12 months did not appear to affect CIMT in this population, although it did have beneficial effects on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, high-density lipoprotein, and triglycerides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac MRI Assessment of Left and Right Ventricular Parameters in Healthy Australian Normal Volunteers
Karen S.L. Teo,Angelo Carbone,Cynthia Piantadosi,Derek P. Chew,C. Hammett,Michael A. Brown,Stephen G. Worthley +6 more
TL;DR: Cardiac MRI provides high quality information about cardiac function with a high level of reproducibility and establishes means for these parameters in a selected normal non-Aboriginal Australian population, using cardiac MRI.
Journal ArticleDOI
An examination of clinical intuition in risk assessment among acute coronary syndromes patients: Observations from a prospective multi-center international observational registry
Derek P. Chew,Craig P. Juergens,John K. French,William A. Parsonage,Matthew Horsfall,David Brieger,Stephen Quinn +6 more
TL;DR: Advanced age, hypotension, tachycardia and ST changes on ECG were associated with increased perceived risk, while female gender was associated with lower perceived risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
QRS duration alone misses cardiac dyssynchrony in a substantial proportion of patients with chronic heart failure.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used tissue synchronization imaging (TSI) to determine the prevalence of dyssynchrony in a cardiomyopathy population referred for echocardiography irrespective of QRS duration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rationale and design of a randomized controlled trial of pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine for prevention of cardiovascular events: The Australian Study for the Prevention through Immunization of Cardiovascular Events (AUSPICE)

TL;DR: This is the first registered randomized controlled trial to be conducted to test whether vaccination with the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine will reduce cardiovascular events, and if successful, vaccination can be readily extended to at-risk groups to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
