Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated plasma angiotensin converting enzyme 2 activity is an independent predictor of major adverse cardiac events in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease.
TL;DR: Plasma ACE2 activity independently increased the hazard of adverse long-term cardiovascular outcomes in patients with obstructive CAD.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Compared with normal-weight individuals, overweight and obese patients had lower in-hospital and 12-month MACE and mortality rates after PCI and had a higher rate of guideline-based medication use at 12 months, which might in part explain the obesity paradox seen after PCI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hui-Chen Han,Francis J. Ha,Prashanthan Sanders,Ryan J. Spencer,Andrew W. Teh,David O'Donnell,Omar Farouque,Han S. Lim +7 more
TL;DR: Clinicians should have a high suspicion for the development of atrioesophageal fistula in patients presenting with infective, neurological, gastrointestinal, or cardiac symptoms within 2 months of an atrial fibrillation ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma ACE2 Activity Predicts Mortality in Aortic Stenosis and Is Associated With Severe Myocardial Fibrosis
Jay Ramchand,Sheila K Patel,Leighton G Kearney,George Matalanis,Omar Farouque,Piyush M Srivastava,Louise M Burrell +6 more
TL;DR: In patients with AS, elevated plasma ACE2 was a marker of myocardial structural abnormalities and an independent predictor of mortality with incremental value over traditional prognostic markers.
