Journal ArticleDOI

Nephrotoxicity of ionic and nonionic contrast media in 1196 patients: A randomized trial

TL;DR: In patients undergoing cardiac angiography, only those with pre-existing RI alone or combined with DM are at higher risk for acute contrast nephrotoxicity, according to a multivariate analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary thrombolysis with recombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator: a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.

TL;DR: Either intravenous or intracoronary rt-PA induced coronary thrombolysis without eliciting clinically significant fibrinogenolysis in patients with evolving myocardial infarction due to thrombotic coronary occlusion is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transmitral pressure-flow velocity relation. Importance of regional pressure gradients in the left ventricle during diastole.

TL;DR: Effects of regional diastolic pressure differences within the left ventricle on the measured transmitral pressure-flow relation were determined by simultaneous micromanometric left atrial and left ventricular pressure measurements, and Doppler echocardiograms in 11 anesthetized, closed-chest dogs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary thrombolysis with tissue-type plasminogen activator in patients with evolving myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: Observations indicate that clot-selective coronary thrombolysis can be induced in patients with evolving myocardial infarction by means of tissue-type plasminogen activator, without concomitant induction of a systemic lytic state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specificity of elevated serum MB creatine phosphokinase activity in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction

TL;DR: Elevated serum MB CPK activity is a highly specific as well as sensitive criterion of myocardial injury.
