The Effect of Effort Test on the Levels of Ischemia Modified Albumin, 7-ketocholesterol and Cholestan-3β , 5α , 6β -triol and their Role in the Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease.
We evaluated the prognostic implications of serum indoxyl sulfate (IS) and albumin levels in patients with cardiovascular disease.We prospectively enrolled 351 consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous revascularization for coronary artery disease or peripheral artery disease.
Although peritoneal protein clearance was associated with increased age and severe comorbidity on univariate analysis, only dialysate IL-6, peritoneal solute transport rate, plasma albumin and cardiac comorbidities (ischaemic heart disease and left ventricular dysfunction) were independent explanatory variables on multivariate analysis.
To investigate whether lower serum albumin is associated with prolonged QT interval by recording 12-lead electrocardiography in patients with coronary artery disease and chronic kidney disease.
Glycated albumin and specific inflammatory mediators have been reported to play various roles in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance, atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, retinopathy, and nephropathy.
Logistic regression showed peak flow in the leg to be independently associated with the 6-min walk distance adjusted for age, hemoglobin level, albumin, creatinine, presence of sarcopenia, and coronary artery disease (hazard ratio, 0.903; 95% confidence interval, 0.835-0.976; P = .01).
The combined effects of serum albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP) on clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were investigated.Methods and Results:A total of 2,164 all-comer patients with coronary artery disease who underwent their first PCI and had data available for preprocedural serum albumin and hs-CRP levels between 2000 and 2011 were studied.
The following variables were determined: age, sex, body mass index, diabetes duration, medications used, history of coronary artery disease and its complications, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), fasting plasma glucose, hemoglobin A1c, total cholesterol, low- and high-density lipoproteins, triglycerides, plasma creatinine, and 24-h urine albumin excretion.
Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are carried by oxidized plasma proteins, especially albumin and accumulate in subjects with renal disease and coronary artery disease.
The following variables were determined for each patient: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), diabetes duration and the drugs used, history of coronary artery disease and its complications, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), fasting blood sugar (FBS), haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol (Chol), low-density lipoproteins (LDL), high-density lipoproteins (HDL), triglycerides (TG), plasma creatinine (Crt) and 24 h urine albumin excretion.
In 257 Dutch IDDM patients (188 with urinary albumin excretion (UAE) <30 mg/24 h), logistic regression analysis was used to study the relationships among, on the one hand, the insertion/deletion gene polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene (ACE-ID), the M235T gene polymorphism of the angiotensinogen gene (AGT-M235T), and the A1166C gene polymorphism of the angiotensin type 1 receptor gene (AT1-A1166C), and, on the other hand, UAE, retinopathy, hypertension, and coronary heart disease.
We found that in patients with type 2 diabetes the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase VV genotype was associated with a low urinary albumin excretion but not with coronary artery disease or diabetes per se.
