Objective: The prospective intervention study was conducted to investigate the effects of kale powder (Kale juice mixed with water or milk) consumption on metabolic syndrome in subjects with potential metabolic syndrome...

Although inaccurate, non-reproducible blood pressure values can result from non-standardized assessments, recommended approaches to standardize blood pressure measurement are often not followed in research studies. An expert consensus of nat...

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of patent haemostasis in avoiding radial artery occlusion after transradial catheterization. Background: Radial a...

Objective: To find out the diagnostic accuracy of admission ECG against coronary angiography (CAG) to predict the ARA in patients with USAP /NSTEMI. Background: In USAP even though m...

Background: This brief report presents a potential new technique for locating the sites of origin of focal atrial tachycardias from standard 12-lead electrocardiograms. Methods: ...

Backgroud: Metabolic acidosis, a common condition particularly in end stage renal disease patients, results in malnutrition and inflammation. In this study, we focused on the importance of metabolic acidosis on manifest...

A surgical review of factors influencing femoropopliteal bypass longevity, including lesion characteristics, techniques, graft materials, and post‑operative surveillance.

Background. Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet (MedD) is associated with a reduction of overall mortality and mortality from cardiovascular diseases and cancer. In a previous study we found a relationship between intak...

The aim of this review is to compile our understanding of microRNA (miRNA) and its significance in Hypertension (HTN) pathophysiology. The wide spectrum of health disparity is one of the reasons for the dominance of HTN in humans for decades...

This article reviews heart–kidney signaling in heart failure, contrasting adaptive and maladaptive pathways. It discusses neurohormonal activation, fibrosis, and emerging therapeutic targets.

An overview of blood pressure regulation in hypoxia addresses altitude physiology, sleep disordered breathing, and cardiopulmonary disease. It reviews pathophysiology and therapeutic implications.

This review discusses causes of lower‑limb bypass graft failure and strategies to improve durability. It considers patient selection, conduit choice, surveillance, and re‑intervention options.

Objective: Ablation of foci within the atria has been shown to resolve symptoms of atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. However, no standard has been established for anticoagulation after the procedure. Enoxaparin ha...

Exercise-dependent complete left bundle branch block is a rare entity.We present a case in which this phenomenon was demonstrated during the recovery period of a stress test. To the best of our knowledge such an observation has not been prev...

Objective: To determine whether age at menarche is an independent predictor of common carotid artery intima-media thickness in overweight and obese adult women. Methods: 403 overwe...

Background: Conventional transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) are usually unable to reveal very early subtle abnormalities in left ventricular (LV) systolic function caused by hypertensi...

Background: Western studies have shown that hypertension increases carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) as early as in childhood and adolescence. However, similar data from India is lacking. Indians have different genet...

Direct intercoronary continuity is a rare angiographic finding. We report an unusual case of a 51-year old male with coronary disease who demonstrated intermittent variability in the directions of flow as a result of changes in his coronary ...

We report the case of a 22 year-old-male patient affected by Sotos syndrome was preoperatively and urgently evaluated for tracheal stent implantation due to respiratory insufficiency caused by idiopathic tracheal stenosis. Rest elect...

A concise review of chronic atrial fibrillation covers mechanisms, stroke risk, and rate versus rhythm control. It highlights anticoagulation strategies and shared decision‑making to individualize therapy.

We describe a rare case of multiple coronary artery-left ventricular fistulas associated with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a 62 year asymptomatic old male admitted to our department for a perioperative evaluation of non cardiac surg...

Background: Heart valves share developmental signaling pathways with cartilage and bone. While calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) has been associated with valve calcification and stenosis, suggestive of osteogenesis, myxomatous mitral valv...

Introduction: Elevated serum troponin levels are a reliable indicator of right ventricular wall stress in patients with acute pulmonary artery embolism (PE). Raised troponin levels have been shown to predict adverse cli...
