Objectives An association of sleep with cardiovascular disease has been suggested. We analyzed the association of sleep duration with carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) as measure of generalized atherosclerosis. Methods IMT of the common carotid ar

Septic shock (SS) has recently been identified as stimulus of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) release. We tested whether SS mediates NT-proBNP release through cardiomyocyte necrosis. Moreover, the discriminative value of NT-proBN

Activation of endothelial cells is an incipient process in atherogenesis and leads to induction of the cellular adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. Their expression can be induced by cytokines as well as other inflammatory mediators. The effects of

Serum ferritin levels are assumed to be an atherosclerotic risk factor. Ferritin production is increased in individuals with activated liver production, which has been shown in hyperthyroid conditions. An association between subclinical hyperthyroidi

The Glu298→Asp (E298D; 894G→T) polymorphism of eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) has been related with cardiovascular disease. In the present study, we investigated the association of Glu298→Asp with atherosclerotic plaques in different

A 42 year-old female, admitted to the ICU, with Addisonian crisis developed acute cardiopulmonary failure after hydrocortisone therapy was initiated. An echocardiogram showed severe reduction in the left-ventricular ejection fraction. Additionally, p
