Öğe THE EVALUATION OF RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PLASMA ASYMMETRIC DIMETHYLARGININE (ADMA) AND AORTIC STIFFNESS IN PATIENTS 'WITH SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS(Nobel Ilac, 2013) Ariturk, Zuhal; Dag, Sevin; Elbey, M. Ali; Kaya, Hasan; Ertas, Faruk; Bozkurt, Mehtap; Cevik, RemziObjective: Endothelial dysfunction and vasculopathy are crucial pathogenic factors in systemic sclerosis. Increased concentrations of plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) may also contribute to endothelial dysfunction in patients with systemic sclerosis. We evaluated the relationship between ADMA and aortic elastic properties in patients with systemic sclerosis. Material and Method: Plasma ADMA levels were measured in 30 patients with systemic sclerosis (28females, mean age 40.7 +/- 11.6) and 30 healthy subjects (27 females, mean age 40.6 +/- 13). Aortic stiffness was determined with echocardiography Results: In patients with systemic sclerosis, the mean value of ADMA was 0.53 +/- 0.13ymolficompared with 0.46 +/- 0.15 mu mol/l for control group. Systolic blood pressure, pulse pressure and aortic 'strain' were found to be higher in patients with systemic sclerosis (p=0.027, p=0.048, p=0.037, respectively), diyastolic blood pressure and aortic distensibility was found lower in systemic sclerosis (p=0.039, p=0.045, respectively). There was no significant correlations between ADMA and aortic 'strain'. Conclusion: ADMA serum levels were increased in patients with systemic sclerosis, but no significant correlation was found between ADMA and aort's elastic structure (aortic 'strain', distensibility, and aortic stiffness index).Öğe Resolution of Intracoronary Thrombus with Tirofiban Infusion: A Case Report(Aves Press Ltd, 2010) Ariturk, Zuhal; Tekbas, Ebru; Cil, Habib; Islamoglu, Yahya; Elbey, M. Ali; Yazici, MehmetA 27 year-old man presented with chest pain lasting for fourteen-hour duration. The patient had electrocardiographic evidence of subacute anterior wall myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed total occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Tirofiban infusion was administered for 48 hours. Then, coronary angiography showed intraluminal filling defects due to a massive thrombus in the proximal segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Vie present a case of effective thrombolysis with tirofiban in young myocardial infarction case.Öğe Widespread Scarring in Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy(Modestum Ltd, 2013) Islamoglu, Yahya; Tekbas, Ebru; Cil, Habib; Aktas, M.
