    Objectives: Coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is the slow or late progression of the opaque material to the distal vascular structures during angiography in patients with normal or near-normal coronary arteries. This study aims to evaluate left atrial volumes and functions using conventional transthoracic and tissue Doppler echocardiographic parameters in patients with CSFP. Materials and Methods: According to criteria determined by Gibson, 50 patients with slow flow in at least one coronary artery were included as cases, and 40 subjects with normal coronary flow were included as controls. Results: In the transmitral and tissue Doppler analysis, mitral early velocity (E), mitral late velocity/mitral early velocity (E/A), and Em were significantly lower in the coronary slow flow (CSF) group. LA, Am, mitral early velocity/earlydiastolic velocity (E/Em), LAVmax, LAVmin, LAVpreA, index volumes, LAAEV, LATEV, and LAAEF were found to be higher in the CSF group. A significant positive correlation was observed between Frame LAD and LAAEF (r=0.66, p<0.001) and between Frame LAD and E/Em (r=0.34, p<0.001). A significant negative correlation was found between LAAEF and E/A ratio (r=-0.4, p=0.003). There was also a significant positive correlation between LAPEF and E/A (r=0.44, p<0.001) and between the mean frame and LAAEF (r=0.4, p=0.002). Conclusion: Impaired LV diastolic functions and significant changes in LA volumes were found in patients with CSFP.

    Prognostic value of the leuko-glycemic index in coronary chronic total occlusion patients
    (Prusa Medikal Yayıncılık, 2023) Peker, Tezcan; Özbek, Mehmet; Boyraz, Bedrettin; Aslan, Selen Filiz; Demir, Muhammed; Aslan, Burhan
    Objectives: Inflammation parameters are related to the prevalence and mortality of coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the leuko-glycemic index (LGI) and determine mortality in patients with chronic coronary total occlusion (CTO). Methods: A total of 546 patients were evaluated in the study. All-cause death was the primary endpoint. The leuko-glycemic index was calculated from the blood samples at admission and patients were divided into 3 groups according to their LGI levels. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were performed and logistic regression analyses was used for all multivariable analysis. Results: The mean age of the study population was 63.1 ± 11.1 years and 70.3% were male. Median followup time 58.2 ± 22.4 months. The mortality rate was 33.6% in the high LGI group and significantly higher compared to the other group. In multivariable analysis, LGI (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1,0-1.2; p = 0.02) and age (OR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.04-1.11; p = 0.001) were found as predictors of all-cause death. Conclusions: The study revealed that high LGI is associated with all-cause death in CTO patients and LGI was a predictor of all-cause death.
