Abstract

Objective: To compare the levels of microRNA (miRNA) 24 levels in diabetic patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS)with non-diabetics suffering from ACS. Methodology: A prospective case-control study was carried out among 40 patients with ACS residing in Belagavi, Karnataka, South India. Patient characteristics based on demographics, ACS related information and treatment, biochemical parameters, and miRNA-24 levels were compared between diabetics and non-diabetics. Finally, miRNA-24 was evaluated for effectiveness as a clinical biomarker for CAD severity in ACS pateints in both the groups. Results: The majority of patients were males between the age group of 18 and 77 years living in urban areas with physical activities restricted to NHYA class 2. A significant level of differences was found between the cases and controls inpatient characteristics such as duration of diabetes diagnosis, treatment of diabetes, family history of diabetes, comorbidities, random blood sugar and HbA1c. Within the levels of miR-24 also, significant variation was observed between the diabetics and non-diabetics. The ROC analysis for evaluating the efficiency of miR-24 as a clinical biomarker for diabetic patients with ACS was established. Conclusions: The control (non-diabetic) group showed significant CT values of miRNA-24 compared to diabetics, suggesting an up-regulation of mi-RNA and thereby may play a protective role of miRNA-24 in these patients. Moreover, the ROC analysis for fold change in miRNA-24 level in diabetic patients with ACS was found to be significant, suggestive of a possible link between expression of miRNA-24 and glucose levels. Therefore, the current study supports the use of miRNA-24 as a prognostic marker inACS outcome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

One of the most interesting congenital malformations is that of conjoined twins. We report echocardiographic features of twin heart in dicephalus, tribrachius, dispinous, thoracoomphalopagus twin. It showed two hearts fused at atrial level. Right-sided heart had single atrial chamber with a single ventricle. A single great vessel, aorta, originated from it. Left-sided heart was well developed with two atria and two ventricles. There was a small mid muscular ventricular septal defect and a small patent ductus arteriosus. Great arteries had normal origins.

AVS: Aortic valve sclerosis CAD: Coronary artery disease
Abstract

Introdution: Aortic valve sclerosis is defined as calcification of the aortic leaflets without impairment in leaflet excursion or antegrade velocity across the valve < 2.5 m/s. It is characterized by a gradual progression beginning with calcium deposition that may ultimately transform to aortic stenosis (AS) with obstruction of outflow from the left ventricle. Aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) presence is associated with an increase in cardiovascular mortality and morbidity . Aims & Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the association between presence of AVS with occurrence of coronary artery disease and classical risk factors. Materials And Methods: The relationship among aortic sclerosis, the presence and acuity of CAD and cardiovascular outcomes in patients presenting with chest pain was studied by prospective follow-up of a cohort of patients from an observational cross-sectional study. A total of 275 Patients were enrolled for the study and all the patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography and diagnostic coronary angiography to assess AVS and to evaluate the extent of coronary artery involvement respectively. Results: Elderly patients aged > 60 years with aortic valve sclerosis had higher prevalence of obstructive coronary artery disease with p value of

30. Successful Treatment of Double-Orifice Mitral Stenosis with Percutaneous Balloon Mitral Commissurotomy

Author

Article Subject, cardiovascular system, cardiovascular diseases
Abstract

Double-orifice mitral valve (DOMV) is an uncommon congenital anomaly, being present in 0.05% of the general population. The isolated occurrence of this anomaly is very rare and, to our knowledge, no data are currently available on the incidence of an isolated DOMV. A DOMV is characterized by a mitral valve with a single fibrous annulus with 2 orifices opening into the left ventricle (LV). Subvalvular structures, especially the tensor apparatus, invariably show various degrees of abnormality. It can substantially obstruct mitral valve inflow or cause mitral valve incompetence. We present a rare case of nineteen-year-old male who underwent percutaneous mitral balloon commissurotomy in stenotic DOMV.

Abstract

Prehypertension as an entity has been given Importance after JNC VII report. The magnitude of this problem in India and the importance of recognising prehypertension is slowly growing and getting established. Under these circumstances it was decided to study the prevalence of prehypertension in the city of Belgaum in Karnataka and the literature was reviewed. The objective of this study was to find out the prevalence of prehypertension in the urban population of Belgaum above thirty years of age. The urban population of Belgaum city was screened for prehypertension and hypertension by measuring blood pressure of all individuals aged 30 years and above. Blood pressure of 52196 persons was checked and the data was analysed. JNC VII criteria was used for defining hypertension, prehypertension and normal blood pressure. Among 52196 persons prehypertension was present in 41.1%, 67.1% were in the age group of 30-50 years. The prevalence was similar in both male and female population. Thirty-three percent of diabetic population had prehypertension. About 22.8% of prehypertensives were obese. Prehypertension is highly prevalent in urban population of India, more often seen in persons below 50 years of age. This study recognises the importance of detection of prehypertension and emphasises the need for mass education on life style modification to prevent the development of hypertension and its complications.
