Aerobic Exercise Training Delays Cardiac Dysfunction and Improves Autonomic Control of Circulation in Diabetic Rats Undergoing Myocardial Infarction
(Churchill Livingstone Inc Medical Publishers, 2012-09-01)Background: Exercise training (ET) has been used as a nonpharmacological strategy for treatment of diabetes and myocardial infarction (MI) separately. We evaluated the effects ET on functional and molecular left ventricular ...

Angiotensin II antagonists - therapeutic benefits spanning the cardiovascular disease continuum from hypertension to heart failure and diabetic nephropathy
(Librapharm, 2006-01-01)Background: the cardiovascular benefits of angiotensin II antagonists (AIIAs) have been evaluated not only in terms of their ability to lower blood pressure but also on their ability to prevent strokes, cardiac events, and ...

Association between air pollution and ischemic cardiovascular emergency room visits
(Elsevier B.V., 2003-05-01)This study observed the relationship between air pollutants and ischemic cardiac diseases such as angina and acute myocardial infarction in a representative cardiovascular center emergency room in São Paulo, Brazil. Daily ...

Association of lipase lipoprotein polymorphisms with myocardial infarction and lipid levels
(Walter de Gruyter & Co, 2007-01-01)Background: Lipoprotein lipase has an important role in lipid metabolism. Elevated levels of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease ...

Autonomic impairment after myocardial infarction: Role in cardiac remodelling and mortality
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010-04-01)P>1. Impairmant of baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) has been implicated in the reduction of heart rate variability (HRV) and in the increased risk of death after myocardial infarction (MI). in the present study, we investigated ...

Avaliação ecocardiográfica evolutiva do infarto do miocárdio em ratos jovens e adultos
(Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia - SBC, 2008-11-01)BACKGROUND: The regeneration of cardiomyocytes after a myocardial infarction (MI) is more evident in young animals; however, it is not known whether it is associated with functional improvement. OBJECTIVE: To perform the ...

Baroreflex deficiency induces additional impairment of vagal tone, diastolic function and calcium handling proteins after myocardial infarction
(E-century Publishing Corp, 2014-01-01)Baroreflex dysfunction has been considered an important mortality predictor after myocardial infarction (MI). However, the impact of baroreflex deficiency prior to MI on tonic autonomic control and cardiac function, and ...

Caracterização tecidual e fenotípica in vivo da placa aterosclerótica em pacientes com infarto agudo do miocárdio: análise pelo ultrassom intravascular utilizando o mapeamento tecidual iMAP®
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2016-11-11)Background: There is limited data on plaque tissue characterization and phenotype classification using radiofrequency iMAP-IVUS?. Methods: In the iWonder study patients presenting with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction ...

Comparative mRNA and MicroRNA Profiling during Acute Myocardial Infarction Induced by Coronary Occlusion and Ablation Radio-Frequency Currents
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2016)The ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery is the most commonly used experimental model to induce myocardial infarction (MI) in rodents. A high mortality in the acute phase and the heterogeneity of the ...

Deficiency of neuronal nitric oxide synthase increases mortality and cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction - Role of nitroso-redox equilibrium
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005-11-29)Background - Neuronal nitric oxide synthase ( NOS1) plays key cardiac physiological roles, regulating excitation-contraction coupling and exerting an antioxidant effect that maintains tissue NO- redox equilibrium. After ...
