The serum chromium in 45 subjects with no clinical evidence of ischemic heart disease was found to be 1.71 parts per billion (ppb) (S.E. +/- 0.14). In 34 patients with a previously documented myocardial infarction, it was 1.84 ppb (S.E. +/- 0.18). The difference was not significant nor was there any
OBJECTIVE
To determine clinical outcome and rates of target vessel revascularization (TVR) in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI who were treated with cobalt-chromium stents compared to stainless steel bare metal stents (BMS).
BACKGROUND
The newer
In the case of experimental heart muscle infarction, the infarcted tissue of 18 pigs had a cadmium content of 0.38 μg/g dry weight and a cobalt content of 0.45 μg/g dry weight. In 25 non-infarcted pig hearts, the cadmium concentration amounted to 0.27 μg/g dry weight and the cobalt concentration to
OBJECTIVE
Because of the reduction in the rate events related with in-stent restenosis, most events after drug-eluting stent implantation occur shortly after coronary stenting. Cobalt-chromium alloys allow to reduce strut thickness and improve flexibility and deliverability of coronary stent
Chromium intake may increase insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, and the ratio of high density lipoprotein cholesterol to low density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, the epidemiologic evidence on the association between chromium and cardiovascular disease is very limited. To determine whether
Background: Second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) reduce the incidence of stent thrombosis, even in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the early local vascular healing after DES implantation in
The use of cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents (CoCr-EES) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) reduces the incidence of stent thrombosis compared with bare metal stents, and a substantial difference is apparent in the initial 2 weeks. However, vascular behavior during this
The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of an everolimus-eluting stent (EES/Xience; Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) compared with a cobalt chromium stent (CoCr/Multi-Link Vision; Abbott Vascular) in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
OBJECTIVE
To assess the performance of the everolimus-eluting stent (EES) versus cobalt chromium bare-metal stent (BMS) in the setting of primary percutaneous coronary intervention for treatment of patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The implantation of a
It has been speculated that trace elements may play a role in the pathogenesis of heart diseases In the present study, we aimed to access the levels of chromium (Cr) and manganese (Mn) in biological samples (whole blood, urine, and scalp hair) of myocardial infarction (MI) patients of both gender
OBJECTIVE
Accumulating evidences suggest a critical role of trace metal dyshemostasis in oxidative stress and cardiac dysfunction after myocardial infarction (MI). This study investigated the cardioprotective effects of selenium yeast (Se), chromium picolinate Cr(pic)3, zinc sulfate (Zn) and their
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this trial was to assess the feasibility and safety of endothelial progenitor cells capture (EPC) stent in the treatment of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) when compared with cobalt-chromium stents (CoCr).
METHODS
Between July 2006 and May 2008, 100 patients
Hyperglycemia is common after acute stroke and is associated with a worse outcome of stroke. Thus, a better understanding of stress hyperglycemia is helpful to the prevention and therapeutic treatment of stroke. Chromium is an essential nutrient required for optimal insulin activity and normal
Bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) represents a breakthrough in interventional cardiology. Despite BVS is used in various settings, nowadays only few studies compared BVS outcome with everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction. We analyzed the currently available
