Ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular diseases frequently co-exist in the same
patient, and similar risk factors are shared. For 60 years, experimental, observational, and …

Objective: To measure the association of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal
fragment of BNP (NT-proBNP) with all-cause mortality after stroke, and to evaluate the …

Elevated levels of troponin have been reported in patients with acute ischemic stroke. In this
prospective study, the prevalence and characteristics of troponin elevation were examined …

Background and Purpose Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) has been shown to play an
important role in macrophage cholesterol trafficking and associated inflammation. To further …

Objective To investigate the ability of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) to predict functional recovery
and left ventricular remodelling following primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) …

Cardiac tamponade results from an accumulation of pericardial fluid under pressure, leading
to impaired cardiac filling and haemodynamic compromise. Findings during physical …

Floating offshore wind turbines are complex dynamical systems. The use of numerical
models is an essential tool for the prediction of the fatigue life, ultimate loads and controller …

Acute-phase levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and the N-terminal fragment of the
BNP prohormone (NT–pro-BNP) have been associated with mortality when measured in …

Background and Purpose—Biomarkers predicting mortality and functional outcome in stroke
may be clinically helpful in identification of patients likely to benefit from intervention …

Abstract Background: Prescription omega-3-acid ethyl esters (PO-3A) have been tested for
outcome benefits in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), arrhythmias and heart …
