[Left ventricular intracardiac tumour diagnosed by echocardiography in a 17-year-old girl--a case report].

Abstract:

:A 17-year-old girl without any cardiac symptoms and with no previous history of cardiovascular disease was diagnosed to have an intracardiac tumour. The diagnosis was made by chance during two-dimensional echocardiography which showed a mobile, peduncular tumour, 2 cm in diameter, arising from the apex of the left ventricle. The patient underwent successful surgery.

  • Relationship between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level on admission and in-hospital mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, with or without diabetes, treated with percutaneous coronary intervention.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is the independent risk factor for coronary artery disease. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with poor outcome in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The relationship between L...
