Could plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine level be a novel predictor beyond the classic predictors of stent restenosis?
CONCLUSION: We conclude that plasma ADMA levels may be used as a novel marker for stent restenosis beyond the classic stent restenosis markers. PMID: 25233494 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: The Anatolian Journal of Cardiology)

The relationship between oxidative stress markers and visual evoked potentials in different hypertension models.
CONCLUSION: Lipid peroxidation measured in serum and brain was associated with increased electrophysiological alterations recorded as VEPs. This study might suggest that serum PON1 activity may be protective against brain and serum lipid peroxidation as well as electrophysiological alterations in the brain in different hypertension models.

Relationship between brain natriuretic peptide, microalbuminuria, and contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
CONCLUSION: A relationship between BNP, microalbuminuria, and contrast agent-induced nephropathy was not found in patients hospitalized in a coronary care unit with a diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome who were scheduled for coronary angiography. Additional multicenter studies with larger patient groups should be conducted to obtain more data. PMID: 25233496 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: The Anatolian Journal of Cardiology)

The effect of irritable bowel syndrome on carotid intima-media thickness, pulse wave velocity, and heart rate variability.
CONCLUSION: We demonstrated decreased parasympathetic modulation in patients with constipation predominant IBS. However, we could not demonstrate any changes in vascular structure and functions measured by carotid intima-media thickness and pulse wave velocity. Our results do not support accelerated atherosclerosis in IBS population. PMID: 25233499 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: The Anatolian Journal of Cardiology)
