Uric acid levels and outcome from coronary artery bypass graftingGraham S Hillis
Department of Cardiology, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 138:200-5. 2009..Their utility in patients undergoing surgical revascularization has not, however, been assessed. We hypothesized that serum uric acid levels would predict the outcome of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting...
Usefulness of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio as predictor of new-onset atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graftingPatrick H Gibson
Department of Cardiology, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Am J Cardiol 105:186-91. 2010..In conclusion, these results support an inflammatory etiology in postoperative AF but suggest that other factors are also important...
Noninvasive assessment of left ventricular filling pressure after acute myocardial infarction: a prospective study of the relative prognostic utility of clinical assessment, echocardiography, and B-type natriuretic peptideKirsten Kruszewski
Department of Cardiology, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Am Heart J 159:47-54. 2010..All of these predict outcome in this setting. There are, however, no data assessing their relative prognostic value. The current study addresses this...
Use of preoperative natriuretic peptides and echocardiographic parameters in predicting new-onset atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting: a prospective comparative studyPatrick H Gibson
Department of Cardiology, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Am Heart J 158:244-51. 2009..We prospectively compared the ability of echocardiographic parameters and the cardiac neurohormones, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) to predict AF in this setting...
N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide is an independent predictor of postoperative myocardial injury in patients undergoing major vascular surgerySriram Rajagopalan
Department of Vascular Surgery, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, NHS Grampian, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
J Vasc Surg 48:912-7; discussion 917. 2008..We aimed to determine if N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP), with its longer half-life and greater plasma stability, can predict postoperative myocardial injury in vascular patients...
The relationship between renal function and outcome from heart valve surgeryPatrick H Gibson
Department of Cardiology, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, UK
Am Heart J 156:893-9. 2008..The prognostic importance of renal function in patients undergoing surgery for valvular heart disease is poorly defined. The current study addresses this issue...
Preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and outcome from coronary artery bypass graftingPatrick H Gibson
Department of Cardiology, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Am Heart J 154:995-1002. 2007..We hypothesized that the N/L ratio would predict the outcome of patients undergoing surgical revascularization...
Relationship between postoperative cardiac troponin I levels and outcome of cardiac surgeryBernard L Croal
Department of Clinical Biochemistry, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom, AB25 2ZD
Circulation 114:1468-75. 2006..Interpretation of troponin levels in this setting may therefore be complex. This study assessed the prognostic significance of such measurements, taking into account potential confounding variables...
Utility of B-type natriuretic peptide in predicting medium-term mortality in patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgeryBrian H Cuthbertson
Health Services Research Unit, University of Aberdeen and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Am J Cardiol 100:1310-3. 2007....
Impact of temporary right ventricular pacing from different sites on echocardiographic indices of cardiac functionM Hafez A Alhous
Department of Cardiology, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, UK
Europace 13:1738-46. 2011..We therefore assessed cardiac performance during temporary RV pacing from apical vs. mid-septum or outflow tract sites, using echocardiography and electrocardiography...
The relationship between transmural extent of infarction on contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and recovery of contractile function in patients with first myocardial infarction treated with thrombolysisJustin L Barclay
Department of Cardiology, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen, UK
Cardiology 108:217-22. 2007....
