Journal ArticleDOI
New atrial fibrillation after acute myocardial infarction independently predicts death : The GUSTO-III experience
Cheuk-Kit Wong,Harvey D. White,Robert G. Wilcox,Douglas A. Criger,Robert M. Califf,Eric J. Topol,E. Magnus Ohman +6 more
TL;DR: Worsening heart failure, hypotension, third-degree heart block, and ventricular fibrillation were independent predictors of new-onset AF and independently portends a worse prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical outcomes after detection of elevated cardiac enzymes in patients undergoing percutaneous intervention
Barbara E. Tardiff,Robert M. Califf,James E. Tcheng,A. Michael Lincoff,Kristina N. Sigmon,Robert A. Harrington,Kenneth W. Mahaffey,E. Magnus Ohman,Paul S. Teirstein,James C. Blankenship,Michael M. Kitt,Eric J. Topol +11 more
TL;DR: Elevations in cardiac enzymes, including small increases (between one and three times normal) often not considered an infarction, are associated with an increased risk for short-term adverse clinical outcomes after successful or unsuccessful PCI.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and Predictors of Bleeding After Contemporary Thrombolytic Therapy for Myocardial Infarction
Scott D. Berkowitz,Christopher B. Granger,Karen S. Pieper,Kerry L. Lee,Joel M. Gore,Maarten L. Simoons,Paul W. Armstrong,Eric J. Topol,Robert M. Califf +8 more
TL;DR: A small number of patients with a history of bleeding and known risk factors for bleeding have responded to thrombolytic therapy, and these results suggest that this therapy may be beneficial in patients with high levels of bleeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic Importance of Physical Examination for Heart Failure in Non–ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes: The Enduring Value of Killip Classification
Umesh N. Khot,Gang Jia,David J. Moliterno,A. Michael Lincoff,Monica B. Khot,Robert A. Harrington,Eric J. Topol +6 more
TL;DR: Kilip classification is a powerful independent predictor of all-cause mortality in patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes and should receive particular attention in the initial assessment of these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the ABC/2 Estimation Technique to Computer-Assisted Volumetric Analysis of Intraparenchymal and Subdural Hematomas Complicating the GUSTO-1 Trial
James Gebel,Cathy A. Sila,Michael A. Sloan,Christopher B. Granger,Joseph P. Weisenberger,Cynthia L. Green,Eric J. Topol,Kenneth W. Mahaffey +7 more
TL;DR: The ABC/2 method is a simple and accurate technique for the measurement of intraparenchymal hematomas volume, and a simple adaptation allows for a similarly accurate measurement of subdural hematoma volume as well.
