The Importance of Nitric Oxide and Oxidative Stress in Atrial High-Rate Episodes in Patients with Cardiac Devices
CONCLUSION: The study findings indicated that plasma levels of NT-proBNP, MDA, nitric oxide, and the expression of iNOS and eNOS were significantly associated with AHRE. Moreover, elevated plasma MDA concentrations, increased iNOS activity, and decreased eNOS activity were identified as independent predictors of AHRE.PMID:38465533 | DOI:10.5543/tkda.2023.07433 (Source: Turk Kardiyoloji Dernegi arsivi)

Complete Percutaneous Retrieval of Migrated VSD Occluder Device from the Pulmonary Artery: Management of a Catastrophic Complication
Turk Kardiyol Dern Ars. 2024 Mar;52(2):149-152. doi: 10.5543/tkda.2023.93350.ABSTRACTTranscatheter closure of muscular ventricular septal defects (VSD) remains a safe and effective method with low complication rates. However, device migration can pose a significant challenge to interventional cardiologists due to potential mortal consequences. A 21-year-old female presented to our clinic with exertional dyspnea and was diagnosed with a muscular VSD. The defect was percutaneously closed using an Amplatzer occluder device. On the first post-procedural day, the patient experienced repeated episodes of coughing and mild hemopt...

Supporting Role of Adequate Affected Tissue Biopsy in the Diagnostic Algorithm for Cardiac Amyloidosis
Turk Kardiyol Dern Ars. 2024 Mar;52(2):143-148. doi: 10.5543/tkda.2023.92265.ABSTRACTAmyloidosis is a pathology that occurs as a result of the accumulation of various misfolded proteins in the extracellular space. It is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality due to multi-organ involvement. One of the most important determinants of mortality and morbidity is cardiac involvement. Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) may present with a variety of clinical findings. In this article, we aim to demonstrate the supportive role of cardiac and extra-cardiac tissue in the routine diagnostic pathway for CA.PMID:38465529 | DOI:10.5543/tkd...
