Angiographic results from the PRISM-PLUS trial (Platelet receptor inhibition for ischemic syndrome management in patients limited by unstable signs and symptoms). PRISM-PLUS Investigators.
The present study describes the effects of tirofiban, a nonpeptide platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor blocker, on the characteristics of culprit lesions in patients with unstable angina (UA) or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (NQWMI).

Two phase III trials of enoxaparin for unstable angina/non-Q-wave myocardial infarction have shown it to be superior to unfractionated heparin for preventing a composite of death and cardiac ischemic events. A prospectively planned meta-analysis was performed to provide a more precise estimate of the effects of enoxaparin on multiple end points.

Low-molecular-weight heparins are attractive alternatives to unfractionated heparin (UFH) for management of unstable angina/non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (UA/NQMI).
4144. Angiographic findings in patients with refractory unstable angina according to troponin T status.
The CAPTURE (C7E3 fab AntiPlatelet Therapy in Unstable REfactory angina) trial enrolled patients with refractory unstable angina and documented a therapeutic benefit for abciximab, a platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist, that was particularly evident in patients with elevated troponin T (TnT) levels. In the current study, we related the angiographic data to the TnT status of the CAPTURE patients.

Enhanced nocturnal heart rate variability (HRV) has been evoked in sleep-related breathing disorders. However, its capacity to detect obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) has not been systematically determined. Thus, we evaluated the discriminant power of HRV parameters in a first group of patients (G1) and validated their discriminant capacity in a second group (G2).
4146. Evidence for prothrombotic effects of exercise and limited protection by aspirin.
Exercise may activate platelets and leukocytes and promote thrombosis. The effects of aspirin treatment on the prothrombotic effects of exercise have not been established.
4147. Regular aerobic exercise augments endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation in normotensive as well as hypertensive subjects: role of endothelium-derived nitric oxide.

Several nonpharmacological interventions, including exercise, are recommended in primary prevention of hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases in which the pathogenetic role of endothelial dysfunction has been suggested. We studied the effects of long-term aerobic exercise on endothelial function in patients with essential hypertension.
4148. Geometric vascular remodeling after balloon angioplasty and beta-radiation therapy: A three-dimensional intravascular ultrasound study.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷11期1182-8页
Endovascular radiation appears to inhibit intimal thickening after overstretching balloon injury in animal models. The effect of brachytherapy on vascular remodeling is unknown. The aim of the study was to determine the evolution of coronary vessel dimensions after intracoronary irradiation after successful balloon angioplasty in humans.
4149. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of a new antibody glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor (YM337) in healthy subjects.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷11期1175-81页
This study describes the first administration of YM337, the Fab fragment of a humanized monoclonal antibody against the fibrinogen GP IIb/IIIa receptor, in healthy male humans.
4150. Role of lipoprotein(a) and apolipoprotein(a) phenotype in atherogenesis: prospective results from the Bruneck study.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷11期1154-60页
Experimental studies have suggested both atherogenic and thrombogenic properties of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], depending on Lp(a) plasma concentrations and varying antifibrinolytic capacity of apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] isoforms. Epidemiological studies may contribute to assessment of the relevance of these findings in the general population.
4151. Comparison of candesartan, enalapril, and their combination in congestive heart failure: randomized evaluation of strategies for left ventricular dysfunction (RESOLVD) pilot study. The RESOLVD Pilot Study Investigators.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷10期1056-64页
We investigated the effects of candesartan (an angiotensin II antagonist) alone, enalapril alone, and their combination on exercise tolerance, ventricular function, quality of life (QOL), neurohormone levels, and tolerability in congestive heart failure (CHF).
4152. Influence of balloon pressure during stent placement in native coronary arteries on early and late angiographic and clinical outcome: A randomized evaluation of high-pressure inflation.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷9期918-23页
High-pressure dilatation is considered a better stent placement strategy, but this has not yet been proved by appropriately designed studies. The objective of this randomized trial was to assess the role of high-pressure dilatation in the early and late outcome of patients undergoing coronary stent placement.
4153. Ventricular pacing with premature excitation for treatment of hypertensive-cardiac hypertrophy with cavity-obliteration.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷8期807-12页
Hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy with supranormal systolic ejection and distal cavity obliteration (HHCO) can result in debilitating exertional fatigue and dyspnea. Dual-chamber pacing with ventricular preactivation generates discoordinate contraction, which can limit cavity obliteration and thereby increase potential ejection reserve. Accordingly, we hypothesized that pacing may improve exercise tolerance long-term in this syndrome.
4154. Acute platelet inhibition with abciximab does not reduce in-stent restenosis (ERASER study). The ERASER Investigators.
来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷8期799-806页
Although stents reduce restenosis compared with balloon angioplasty, their long-term efficacy is limited by neointimal hyperplasia. Platelet and alpha(v)beta(3) integrin receptor inhibition limits neointimal proliferation in animal models of arterial injury.
4155. Increased proinflammatory cytokines in patients with chronic stable angina and their reduction by aspirin.

来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷8期793-8页
Proinflammatory cytokines released by injured endothelium facilitate interaction of endothelial cells with circulating leukocytes and thus may contribute to development and progression of atherosclerosis. We investigated whether cytokines and C-reactive protein (CRP) are indicative of myocardial ischemia or of diseased vessels and whether they are influenced by aspirin treatment in patients with chronic stable angina.
4156. Is 8-mm more effective than 4-mm tip electrode catheter for ablation of typical atrial flutter?

The prospective, randomized study comparing 4- with 8-mm tip electrodes for radiofrequency linear ablation of typical atrial flutter is not available.
4157. Effect of postmenopausal hormones on inflammation-sensitive proteins: the Postmenopausal Estrogen/Progestin Interventions (PEPI) Study.
作者: M Cushman.;C Legault.;E Barrett-Connor.;M L Stefanick.;C Kessler.;H L Judd.;P A Sakkinen.;R P Tracy.
来源: Circulation. 1999年100卷7期717-22页
Observational studies in healthy women suggest postmenopausal hormone therapy reduces risk of coronary events. In contrast, in a recent clinical trial of women with coronary disease, a subgroup analysis demonstrated increased risk during the early months of therapy. Because higher levels of inflammation factors predict vascular disease outcomes, the effect of hormones on these factors is of interest.
