OBJECTIVE
γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is an independent prognostic marker for cardiac death and reinfarction in patients with coronary artery disease, but its clinical significance during early postmyocardial infarction period is unclear.
METHODS
This short-term prospective study included 40
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) serum levels were measured in 42 female patients within 72 hours, and on day 10, after an ischaemic cerebral infarction (CI) and correlated with neurological impairment at admission and with mortality during hospitalization. Mean +/- SEM GGT serum value within 72
OBJECTIVE
Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase activity (gamma-GT) is able to catalyse low-density lipoprotein oxidation and has been detected in coronary atherosclerotic plaques. gamma-GT has been documented as an independent risk factor for cardiac mortality in middle-aged men. The purpose of this
The relationship between extent, severity, and complexity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and serum γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity has not been adequately studied. We evaluated the relationship between GGT activity and the
BACKGROUND
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) level was found to be elevated in plasma of patients with cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of our study was to assess the relationship between serum GGT levels and the occurrence of no-reflow as well as to evaluate the prognostic value of GGT in
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and has been associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ischemic heart disease. However, the association between GGT and long-term mortality has not been studied in patients with acute
OBJECTIVE
Serum γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity has been shown to be related to the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of GGT in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing a
OBJECTIVE
Although there is substantial evidence that serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is associated with cerebrovascular diseases, its role in silent brain infarcts (SBIs) has not been addressed. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between serum GGT and the presence of SBI in a
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is associated with adverse short- and long-term outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) for risk of CIN in patients with ST-segment elevation
Gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a new marker for predicting myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiac death and inflammation. There is also a strong relationship between Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) and cardiovascular disease. This study was designed to investigate the association
We examined whether long-term gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) variability can predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in individuals with diabetes. We included 698,937 Koreans diabetes patients older than 40 years without histories of CVD, chronic liver disease, or heavy alcoholics who
High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), gamma-glutamyl-transferase, testosterone and oestradiol were determined in plasma in non-diabetic males who had survived an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) before the age of 60. They also had serum levels of cholesterol
Preclinical studies in cardiovascular medicine are necessary to translate basic research to the clinic. The porcine model has been widely used to understand the biological mechanisms involved in cardiovascular disorders for which purpose different closed-chest models have been developed in the last
Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) activity is a general clinical marker of excessive alcohol consumption, and GGT reflects changes in oxidative stress and implicated in the progression of hypertension. Recent guidelines classify persons with above-optimal blood pressure (BP) but not clinical
γ-Glutamyl transferase (GGT) participates in oxidative and inflammatory reactions inside the atheroma plaque and platelets. We evaluated whether platelet membrane γ-glutamyl transferase (Plt-GGT) activity is a predictor of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) during 3 months follow-up of patients
