Ilknur Balta,Sevket Balta,Sait Demirkol,Dimitri P. Mikhailidis,Turgay Celik,Muharrem Akhan,Omer Kurt,Yasemin Gulcan Kurt,Ibrahim Aydin,Selim Kilic +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that endocan is a novel human endothelial cell‐specific molecule‐1 (endocan) that may be a novel endothelial dysfunction marker and associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher Neutrophil to Lymhocyte Ratio in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome
TL;DR: Although the authors have showed patients with MS had significantly higher N/L ratio compared to those without MS, some of the factors affecting these markers such as smoking, alcohol, and malignancy were not mentioned in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric Dimethylarginine and Augmentation Index in Newly Diagnosed Patients With Hypertension
Mustafa Cakar,Fatih Bulucu,Murat Karaman,Seyit Ahmet Ay,Omer Kurt,Sevket Balta,Sait Demirkol,Hakan Sarlak,Muharrem Akhan,Battal Altun,Halil Yaman,Erol Arslan,Seref Demirbas,Kenan Saglam +13 more
TL;DR: In both women and men, there was no difference in terms of age, body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, PWV, CAP and the levels of ADMA, while Aix and CRP levels were significantly higher in women (P = .004, P = .046, respectively).
Journal ArticleDOI
Arterial stiffness and endothelial inflammation in prediabetes and newly diagnosed diabetes patients
Mustafa Cakar,Sevket Balta,Hakan Sarlak,Muharrem Akhan,Sait Demirkol,Murat Karaman,Seyit Ahmet Ay,Omer Kurt,Tuncer Cayci,Satılmış İnal,Seref Demirbas +10 more
TL;DR: Serum e-selectin may be a good marker of endothelial inflammation and dysfunction increasing in parallel with serum glucose levels, predicting future cardiovascular events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epicardial adipose tissue measurement: inexpensive, easy accessible and rapid practical method
TL;DR: The authors concluded that EAT was related to increased LVM independent of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and other risk parameters, in patients with UHT.
