Carcinogenic and toxic molecules produce DNA adducts that contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. Genetic polymorphisms of xenobiotic-detoxified enzymes, which control the level of DNA… Expand
Elevated Whole-Blood Tissue Factor Procoagulant Activity as a Marker of Restenosis After Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty and Stent Implantation
Background—Experimental data suggest that tissue factor (TF) may induce neointimal hyperplasia after arterial injury. In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that elevated levels of TF in the… Expand

Background: Elevated plasma homocysteine level is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. A common mutation (nucleotid 677C‐T) in the gene coding for methylenetetrahydrofolate… Expand
Echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function in chronic cor pulmonale.
In this study we hoped to understand the abnormalities of left ventricular filling dynamics in chronic cor pulmonale. Our findings showed a severe left ventricular diastolic impairment, directly… Expand
Restenosis after Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty: A Risk Factor Analysis
Background: Restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a major problem limiting the long-term efficacy of the procedure. The purpose of this study was to determine… Expand
Familial Mediterranean fever gene (MEFV) mutations in patients with rheumatic heart disease
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessively inherited inflammatory disease that primarily affects Jews, Armenians, Turks, and Arabs. It is characterised by recurrent self limited… Expand

OBJECTIVE
We examined the endothelial nitric oxide (eNOS) gene Glu298Asp polymorphism to assess its possible association with the extent of coronary collaterals.
METHODS
A total of 473 consecutive… Expand
