The eNOS T786C mutation, prinzmetal's variant angina, and amelioration of angina by L-arginine in 59 patients with intractable angina despite calcium channel blockers- nitrates
Conclusions In patients with intractable angina despite CaCH-LAN, the eNOS T-786C mutation appears to facilitate CAS via reduced NO production, a condition susceptible to treatment with L-arginine. (Source: IJC Metabolic and Endocrine)

The Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Outcome of Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
Conclusion TAVR outcome is probably driven by baseline characteristics and post-operative complications while diabetes itself is not associated with poor outcome after TAVR. (Source: IJC Metabolic and Endocrine)

Accumulation of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Increases Coronary Morbidity in Non-obese Patients with Suspected Coronary Artery Disease
Conclusion Our findings suggest that suspected CAD patients with low BMI but high EAT volume are at increased risk of major coronary events, but not all-cause death. (Source: IJC Metabolic and Endocrine)

The Cardio-Renal Syndrome (CRS)
Publication date: Available online 17 April 2015 Source:IJC Metabolic & Endocrine Author(s): Enrico V. Scabbia , Luca Scabbia The presence of impaired kidney function during heart failure and vice versa is a frequent occurrence. This situation is defined “Cardio-Renal Syndrome”. In the Cardio-Renal Syndrome (CRS) are included 5 different sub-syndromes defined on the basis of the organ primitively responsible: Acute Cardio-Renal Syndrome (Type 1), Chronic Cardio-Renal Syndrome (Type 2), Acute Reno-Cardiac Syndrome (Type 3), Chronic Renal-Cardiac Syndrome (Type 4) and Secondary Cardio-Renal Syndrome (Type 5...

Serum levels of free T3 are associated with ApoA1 and ApoA2, whereas free T4 levels are associated with ApoB and LDL-cholesterol in euthyroid cardiovascular patients
Conclusions : This is the first report demonstrating a significant correlation between the serum levels of FT3 and both ApoA1 and ApoA2; the serum levels of FT4 and ApoA2, ApoB, TC and LDL-C; and the serum levels of TSH and ApoA1, ApoE, DHA, TG and HDL-C. (Source: IJC Metabolic and Endocrine)

Complement C3c and C4c as predictors of death in Heart Failure
Conclusion Lower C3c levels are independently associated with higher risk of death. Our results reinforce the role of innate immunity in HF pathophysiology. (Source: IJC Metabolic and Endocrine)

Toxic urban waste's assault on cardiovascular risk
Publication date: March 2015 Source:IJC Metabolic & Endocrine, Volume 6 Author(s): M.L. De Rosa , M. Cerini A cardiovascular health survey of 1203 persons in households located near the hazardous waste disposal sites and in a reference community, was conducted from 2009 until today to assess whether rates of adverse cardiovascular health outcomes were elevated among persons living near the sites. Data included medical records of reported cardiovascular disease certificates and hospital admission for cardiovascular diseases from hospital database. The study areas appeared similar with respect to mortality, can...
