Journal ArticleDOI

Synergistic relationship between hyperglycaemia and inflammation with respect to clinical outcomes in non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes: analyses from OPUS-TIMI 16 and TACTICS-TIMI 18

TL;DR: Among ACS patients, diabetes was associated with both greater inflammation and higher glucose levels and patients with both hyperglycaemia and inflammation had worse outcomes, and better control of both inflammation and hyper glycaemia should be assessed in future ACS trials as a means to reduce the cardiovascular risk among diabetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of intravenous fluorocarbons during and without oxygen enhancement on acute myocardial ischemic injury assessed by measurement of intramyocardial gas tensions.

TL;DR: It is concluded that circulating PFCs reduce acute regional myocardial ischemia during ventilation with either 100% O2 or ambient air, and that PFC-O2 treatment augments myocardian O2 availability in the central ischemic zone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcomes and Optimal Antithrombotic Therapy in Women Undergoing Fibrinolysis for ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: Women had similar relative and greater absolute risk reductions than men when treated with enoxaparin compared with unfractionated heparin as adjunctive therapy with fibrinolysis in the ExTRACT-TIMI 25 study.
Journal ArticleDOI

A cost-effectiveness model for coronary thrombolysis/reperfusion therapy

TL;DR: Therapeutic strategies involving intravenous administration of thrombolytic agents were found to be consistently more cost effective than were strategies involving intracoronary administration of THS agents and primary angioplasty.
