Item Could Plasma Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Level Be A Novel Predictor Beyond The Classic Predictors of Stent Restenosis?(2014) Bal, Ugur Abbas; Yildirir, Aylin; Aydinalp, Alp; Kaynar, Gamze; Kanyilmaz, Suleyman; Murat, Koza; Muderrisoglu, Ibrahim Haldun; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9446-2518; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8750-5287; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3761-8782; 25233494; AAK-4322-2021; A-4947-2018; AAD-5841-2021Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the factors associated with coronary stent restenosis and if there is an association between plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) levels and stent restenosis. Methods: Ninety-one patients, who had a history of coronary bare metal stent implantation due to any cause in the last one year period, were admitted to this observational cross-sectional study. Coronary angiography was performed to all patients and quantitative angiography was used to determine the presence of stent restenosis. Laboratory parameters and angiographic features that contribute to stent restenosis were evaluated. Plasma ADMA levels were measured by using high performance liquid chromatography. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent factors of stent restenosis. Results: Angiographic restenosis was found in 35 patients (38.5%). Stent diameter (p=0.038) and left ventricular ejection fraction (p=0.023) were lower and stent implantation history due to acute coronary syndrome (p=0.029), plasma ADMA level (5.0 +/- 1.8x10(-4) mmol/L vs. 3.9 +/- 1.0x10(-4) mmol/L, p=0.001), C-reactive protein concentration (p=0.016), white blood cell count (p=0.044) and stent length (p=0.005) were higher in patients with restenosis. Plasma ADMA level (beta=0.536; OR: 1.710; CI: 1.022-2.861; p=0.041), C-reactive protein concentration (beta=0.062; OR: 1.064; CI: 1.003-1.129; p=0.041), stent diameter (beta=-3.047; OR: 0.048; CI: 0.007-0.313; p=0.002) and length (beta=0.165; OR: 1.179; CI: 1.036-1.343; p=0.013) were found to be the independent predictors of stent restenosis in logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: We conclude that plasma ADMA levels may be used as a novel marker for stent restenosis beyond the classic stent restenosis markers.Item Recommendations for Ramadan Fasting to Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases; Turkish Society of Cardiology Consensus Report(2021) Alper, Ahmet Taha; Akboga, Mehmet Kadri; Ozcan, Kazim Serhan; Tengiz, Istemihan; Turk, Ugur Onsel; Yildiz, Mustafa; Yilmaz, Mehmet Birhan; Kayikcioglu, Meral; Gazi, Emine; Yildirir, Aylin; 33960303Item Consensus paper on the evaluation and treatment of resistant hypertension by the Turkish Society of Cardiology(2020) Sahinarslan, Asife; Gazi, Emine; Sahinarslan, Asife; Gazi, Emine; Aktoz, Meryem; Ozkan, Cigdem; Okyay, Gulay Ulusal; Elalmis, Ozgul Ucar; Belen, Erdal; Bitigen, Atila; Derici, Ulver; Tutuncu, Neslihan Bascil; Yildirir, Aylin; 0000-0002-1816-3903; 0000-0001-8750-5287; 32870176; ABG-5027-2020; A-4947-2018Item 2020 ESC Core Curriculum for the Cardiologist: What has changed?

We evaluated whether platelet membrane gamma-glutamyl transferase (Plt-GGT) activity is a predictor of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) during 3 months follow-up of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS; MACE-3M). We included 105 patients who were hospitalized consecutively with the diagnosis of ACS. Patients with an MACE-3M were older, more likely to have hypertension, hyperlipidemia, family history of coronary artery disease(CAD), thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) risk score >4, higher Plt-GGT and serum GGT activities, serum C-reactive protein level, and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) when compared to those without MACE-3M (all P values <=.05). By receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, 265 mU/mg for Plt-GGT, 30 U/L for serum GGT, and 45% for LVEF were determined as cutoff values to discriminate MACEs. Platelet GGT activity >265 mU/mg, TIMI risk score >4, and family history of CAD were independent predictors of MACE-3M (all P values <.05). Platelet GGT activity was as an independent predictor for MACEs in patients with ACS during the 3 months follow-up.Item Turkish Society of Cardiology consensus report on recommendations for athletes with high-risk genetic cardiovascular diseases or implanted cardiac devices(2019) Ozel, Erdem; Kosar, Mustafa Feridun; Ozcan, Emin Evren; Hunuk, Burak; Ulus, Taner; Aytekin, Vedat; Yildirir, Aylin; Ozin, Bulent; Erdinler, Izzet; Akyurek, Omer; 0000-0001-8750-5287; 31475950; A-4947-2018Item The opinion and recommendations of Turkish Board for Accreditation in Cardiology on Board Examination(2019) Yildirir, Aylin; Altun, Armagan; Ural, Dilek; Ozdemir, Murat; Aslan, Ozgur; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; 31582681; ABB-5844-2020Item ADMA is a useful marker, but many confounding factors should be considered!
