AIM: We investigated the relationship between small dense low-density cholesterol (sdLDL-C) and risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients treated with high- or low-dose statin therapy. METHODS: This was a prospective case-coho...
Concern has been raised about the effectiveness of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine in the population of patients with various comorbidities such as heart disease. We investigated the humoral response to the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 v...
The prognostic role of D-dimer in different types of heart failure (HF) is poorly understood. We investigated the prognostic value of D-dimer on admission, both independently and in combination with the Get With The Guidelines-Heart Failure (GWTG-...
Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography has been established as a standard noninvasive tool for risk stratification of coronary artery disease (CAD). We evaluated the diagnostic performance of on-site wo...
