Assessment of left ventricular myocardial function in wrestlers: A focus on speckle tracking echocardiography
Objective: Athlete’s heart is related with physiological adaptation as a result of recurrent cardiac overloading. However, these exercise-induced changes can be confused with pathological conditions, and it can be difficult ... -
Combined value of left ventricular ejection fraction and the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score for predicting mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome who were undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Kırış, Tuncay; Avcı, Eyüp; Çelik, Aykan (Biomed Central Ltd, 2018)Background: The purpose of the study was to investigate whether the addition of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) to the MELD score enhances the prediction of mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) ... -
Combining clinical predictors to better predict for the no-reflow phenomenon
Avcı, Eyüp; Yıldırım, Tülay; Aydın, Gökhan; Kırış, Tuncay; Dolapoğlu, Ahmet; Kadı, Hasan; Şafak, Özgen; Bayata, Serdar (Verduci Publisher, 2018)OBJECTIVE: We aimed to determine whether the combination of a CHA2DS2-VASc score (C: Congestive Heart Failure, H: Hypertension, A2: Age ≥ 75 years, D: Diabetes mellitus, S: Stroke history, V: Vascular disease, A: Age ≥ ... -
Comparison of the Framingham risk and SCORE models in predicting the presence and severity of coronary artery disease considering SYNTAX score
Günaydın, Zeki Yüksel; Karagöz, Ahmet; Bektaş, Osman; Kaya, Ahmet; Kırış, Tuncay; Erdoğan, Güney; Işık, Turgay; Ayhan, Erkan (2016)Objective: Although various risk stratification models are available and currently being used, the performance of these models in different populations is still controversial. We aimed to investigate the relation between ... -
A new risk factor for predicting stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation: Morning blood pressure surge
Görcan, Ayberk; Argan, Onur; Avcı, Eyüp; Kırış, Tuncay; Şafak, Özgen; Yıldırım, Tarık; Yıldırım, Seda Elçim; Kısacık, Halil Lütfi; Kadı, Hasan (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2023)Background Stroke, the most feared complication in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), is still an important cause of mortality and morbidity. In our study, we aimed to investigate the frequency of stroke and related ... -
Prognostic value of rising mean platelet volume during hospitalization in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention
Avcı, Eyüp; Kırış, Tuncay; Çelik, Aykan; Varış, Eser; Esin, Fatma Kayaaltı; Köprülü, Diyar; Kadı, Hasan (BMC, 2018)BackgroundThe prognostic significance of changes in mean platelet volume (MPV) during hospitalization in ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention ... -
Relationship between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and the red cell distribution width in patients with coronary artery disease
Avcı, Eyüp; Kırış, Tuncay; Demirtaş, Abdullah Orhan; Kadı, Hasan (Biomed Central Ltd, 2018)Background: The red cell distribution width (RDW) is a numerical measurement of variability in the size of red blood cells. Many studies have shown that high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), has an anti-inflammatory ... -
Short-term effects of levosimendan on strain/strain rate markers in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy
Kırış, Tuncay; Avcı, Eyüp (Wiley, 2018)Objective To investigate whether repetitive measurements of speckle tracking echocardiography (STE)-derived strain (S) and strain rate (SR) could reveal changes in left ventricular function in patients with nonischemic ...
