| Reasons for ICD failure remain unclear after further investigation of IRIS Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT IRIS study investigators have found no evidence from a fresh analysis of their data to explain why early implantation with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator following myocardial infarction increases rather than decreases patient mortality. |
| Mitral repair added to CABG lowers mortality Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT Mitral valve repair at the time of coronary artery bypass graft surgery may decrease perioperative mortality and result in improved survival in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction and moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation, according to investigators in the STICH trial. |
| Smoking, obesity hinder CVD risk control in US diabetics Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT Substantial progress has been made in the control of key risk factors for cardiovascular disease among adults with diabetes in the United States, research shows. |
| Fasting glucose predicts heart rate recovery in CHD patients Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT Fasting plasma glucose is an independent predictor of heart rate recovery in people with coronary heart disease, research shows. |
| Low blood pressure targets reduce arterial and ventricular mass in diabetics Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT Achieving low blood pressure levels in diabetic patients is significantly associated with a regression of arterial and ventricular mass, research shows. |
| High rate of metabolic syndrome following heart transplantation Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT Nearly half of all patients who undergo heart transplantation develop the metabolic syndrome, research suggests. |
| BIM inversely associated with stent thrombosis risk Posted: 01 Sep 2011 05:00 PM PDT People with a high body mass index may have a lower risk for stent thrombosis than those with a low body mass index, Danish researchers report. |
