Increased homocysteine levels are a risk factor for atherosclerosis and its sequelae. A common genetic mutation in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), an enzyme required for efficient homocysteine metabolism, creates a thermolabile enzyme with reduced activity. We determined the prevalence of this mutation in many subjects with and without vascular disease and related it to homocysteine and folate levels.

Traumatic aortic rupture (TAR) is a pathological entity with a high mortality, both spontaneous and perioperative. Delayed surgical repair has been proposed when associated lesions are stabilized. The aim of this study was to validate MRI for detecting both the presence and type of TAR and to monitor posttraumatic aneurysm and associated lesions.
4563. Comparative hemodynamic, left ventricular functional, and antiadrenergic effects of chronic treatment with metoprolol versus carvedilol in the failing heart.

The basic pharmacology of the third-generation beta-blocking agent carvedilol differs considerably from second-generation compounds such as metoprolol. Moreover, carvedilol may produce different, ie, more favorable, clinical effects in chronic heart failure. For these reasons, we compared the effects of carvedilol and metoprolol on adrenergic activity, receptor expression, degree of clinical beta-blockade, hemodynamics, and left ventricular function in patients with mild or moderate chronic heart failure.

The most important factor for improving out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation survival rates is early defibrillation. This can be achieved if small, lightweight, inexpensive automatic external defibrillators are widely disseminated. Because automatic external defibrillator size and cost are directly affected by defibrillation waveform shape and because of the favorable experience with truncated biphasic waveforms in implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, we compared the efficacy of a truncated biphasic waveform with that of a standard damped sine monophasic waveform for transthoracic defibrillation.

Patients with early Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 2 flow after thrombolysis appear to have outcomes similar to thrombolytic failures. To evaluate the origin and evolution of early TIMI 2 flow, we examined early and late angiographic and ventriculographic data from the Global Utilization of Streptokinase and TPA for Occluded Arteries (GUSTO-1) angiographic study.

Elevated blood pressure remains a widespread major impediment to health. Obesity and specific dietary factors such as high salt and alcohol intake and low potassium intake adversely affect blood pressure. It is a reasonable hypothesis that additional dietary constituents, particularly macronutrients, may also influence blood pressure.

Thrombin plays an important role in the pathogenesis of acute coronary thrombosis. We studied the effects of a direct thrombin inhibitor, recombinant desulfatohirudin, and heparin on plasma levels (at 0, 4, 12, and 24 hours) of fibrinopeptide A (FPA), which reflects thrombin action, and prothrombin fragment F1.2, which reflects thrombin generation, in patients with unstable angina.

Whether prophylactic insertion of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) improves the survival of high-risk patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is being assessed in the CABG Patch Trial. This report describes the surgical aspects of the study.
4580. Vasodilator effects of endothelin-converting enzyme inhibition and endothelin ETA receptor blockade in chronic heart failure patients treated with ACE inhibitors.
The importance of endothelin-1 in chronic heart failure (CHF) is unclear. We therefore investigated the effects of endothelin-converting enzyme (ECE) inhibition and endothelin ETA receptor blockade in CHF patients treated with ACE inhibitors. We also compared the function of ETA and ETB receptors in healthy subjects and patients with CHF.
