Journal ArticleDOI

The prevalence of polyvascular disease in patients referred for peripheral arterial disease.

TL;DR: The level of systemic inflammation, reflected by hs-CRP levels, is moderately associated with the extent of polyvascular disease, which is a common condition in patients who have undergone vascular surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of noninvasive cardiovascular imaging in primary prevention: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials.

TL;DR: Limited evidence suggesting that noninvasive cardiovascular imaging alters primary prevention efforts is found, given the imprecision of these results, further high-quality studies are needed.
Journal Article

Risk Stratification of Patients with Angina Pectoris by Stress 99mTc-Tetrofosmin Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

TL;DR: Stress 99mTc-tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion imaging provides independent information for predicting mortality in patients with stable angina pectoris, and patients with normal perfusion have a low mortality rate during long-term follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI

β blockers in non-cardiac surgery: haemodynamic data needed

TL;DR: Improved understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms might lead to improved drugs, with reduced potential for side-eff ects compared with today’s uricosurics, and a better understanding of some of the most relevant medical problems of the authors' time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pulsed-wave tissue Doppler quantification of systolic and diastolic function of viable and nonviable myocardium in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: Quantification of myocardial motion by pulsed-wave TDI demonstrates that at low-dose dobutamine stress, systolic velocity is markedly improved in viable myocardium, indicating the presence of contractile reserve in viable regions.
