Journal ArticleDOI
Visualization of coronary atherosclerotic plaques in patients using optical coherence tomography: comparison with intravascular ultrasound.
Ik-Kyung Jang,Brett E. Bouma,Dong-Heon Kang,Dong-Heon Kang,Seung-Jung Park,Seong-Wook Park,Ki-Bae Seung,Kyu-Bo Choi,Milen Shishkov,Kelly Schlendorf,Eugene Pomerantsev,Stuart L. Houser,H. Thomas Aretz,Guillermo J. Tearney +13 more
TL;DR: Comparison between OCT and histology demonstrated that lipid-rich plaques and fibrous plaques have distinct OCT characteristics, and intracoronary OCT appears to be feasible and safe.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Glu298Asp polymorphism in the endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene is strongly associated with coronary spasm
Kiyuk Chang,Sang Hong Baek,Ki-Bae Seung,Pum-Joon Kim,Sang-Hyun Ihm,Jang-Seong Chae,Jae-Hyung Kim,Soon-Jo Hong,Kyu-Bo Choi +8 more
TL;DR: This result supports the notion that diffuse coronary spasm is significantly associated with endothelial dysfunction, in contrast to focal spasm, and the Glu298Asp polymorphism in the eNOS gene is a definite risk factor for coronarySpasm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PIP) is a marker of diastolic dysfunction in patients with early type 2 diabetes mellitus
Sang-Hyun Ihm,Ho-Joong Youn,Dong-Il Shin,Sung-Won Jang,Chul Soo Park,Pum Joon Kim,Hee-Yeol Kim,Kiyuk Chang,Ki-Bae Seung,Jae-Hyung Kim,Kyu-Bo Choi +10 more
TL;DR: Results show a relation between LV diastolic function and serum PIP levels in early T2DM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronary collaterals: the role of MCP-1 during the early phase of acute myocardial infarction.
Hun-Jun Park,Kiyuk Chang,Chan Seok Park,Sung Won Jang,Sang-Hyun Ihm,Pum Joon Kim,Sang-Hong Baek,Ki-Bae Seung,Kyu-Bo Choi +8 more
TL;DR: During the early phase of AMI, the plasma levels of MCP-1 were significantly increased in the patients with well-developed collateral circulation as compared to those patients with absent collateral circulation, suggesting that the shear stress-induced overexpression of M CP-1 contributes significantly to the development of coronary collaterals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognosis of large, symptomatic pericardial effusion treated by echo-guided percutaneous pericardiocentesis.
Uk Hyun Kil,Hae Ok Jung,Yoon Seok Koh,Hun Jun Park,Chan Seok Park,Pum Joon Kim,Sang-Hong Baek,Ki-Bae Seung,Kyu-Bo Choi +8 more
TL;DR: This study was performed to evaluate the etiology, clinical outcome, and prognosis of patients with large, symptomatic PE treated by echo‐guided pericardiocentesis at Kangnam St. Mary's Hopital.
