Association of mitral annular calcification with cardiovascular risk factors and cardiac structural disease in patients with mitral regurgitation
Yildirimtürk Ö.; Tayyareci Y.; Tu?cu A.; Börkü B.; Çoruh B.; Aytekin S. (2010)Objective: Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is the degenerative calcification of the supportive ring of mitral valve. In previous studies, MAC has been shown to be associated with atherosclerosis, and be an independent ... -
Clinical spectrum, presentation, and risk factors for mortality in infective endocarditis: a review of 68 cases at a tertiary care center in Turkey
Tu?cu A.; Yildirimtürk O.; Baytaro?lu C.; Kurto?lu H.; Köse O.; Şener M.; Aytekin S. (2009)Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate clinical, laboratory, microbiological, and echocardiographic characteristics of infective endocarditis (IE) at a tertiary care center in Turkey and to identify predictors of ... -
Impact of anemia on nonfatal coronary events after percutaneous coronary interventions
Anemia is associated with higher rates of cardiovascular events in patients with heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, and in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Although studies have focused ... -
Progressive subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction in severe aortic regurgitation patients with normal ejection fraction: A 24 months follow-up velocity vector imaging study
Yurdakul S.; Tayyareci Y.; Yildirimturk O.; Behramoglu F.; Colakoglu Z.; Memic K.; Aytekin S. (2011)Objectives: We aimed to evaluate long-term changes in left ventricular (LV) longitudinal systolic functions in patients with asymptomatic, severe aortic regurgitation (AR) by using novel 2D strain imaging. Methods and ... -
Relationship between endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular risk factors and the extent and severity of coronary artery disease
Gümüşel H.K.; Çatako?lu A.B.; Yildirimtürk Ö.; Yurdakul S.; Helvacio?lu F.; Ziyrek M.; Aytekin S. (Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2014)Objectives: Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and cardiovascular risk factors.

Subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in asymptomatic chronic mitral regurgitation patients with normal ejection fraction: A combined tissue doppler and velocity vector imaging-based study
Yurdakul S.; Tayyareci Y.; Yildirimturk O.; Memic K.; Aytekin V.; Aytekin S. (2011)Background: The optimal timing of the surgery in asymptomatic severe mitral regurgitation (MR) remains a challenge. The aim of the study is to evaluate the subclinical changes in LV longitudinal functions by using a novel ... -
The comparison between the efficiency of diffferent anti-arrhythmic agents in preventing postoperative atrial fibrillation after open heart surgery [Açik kalp cerrahisi sonrasi gelişen atriyal fibrilasyonu önlemek için kullanilan ilaçlarin etkinlik yönünden karşilaştirilmasi]
Men E.E.; Yildirimtürk O.; Tu?cu A.; Aytekin V.; Aytekin S. (2008)Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most frequent complications that may occur after open-heart surgery. Clinical reports regarding comparison of different anti-arrhythmic agent's usage to maintain sinus ... -
The relation between coronary flow rate, plasma endothelin-1 concentrations, and clinical characteristics in patients with normal coronary arteries
Celebi H.; Catakoglu A.B.; Kurtoglu H.; Sener M.; Hanavdelogullari R.; Demiroglu C.; Aytekin S. (2008)Background: Coronary slow flow (CSF) is characterized by delayed opacification of epicardial arteries in the absence of occlusive disease. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the relation between coronary flow ...
