Abstract:
We included into prospective cohort observational study 148 patients with ischemic stroke aged 60 [52; 68] years. Duration of a prospective follow-up was 35 [28; 40] months. Cardiovascular events (CVE) registered during follow-up were recurrent stroke, transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, including acute decompensation of chronic heart failure requiring hospitalization, cardiovascular death. During follow-up 37 patients (25%) had 50 CVE. On multivariate regression analysis, independent predictors of CVE after ischemic stroke were: age over 67 years, presence of chronic ischemic heart disease, high grade ventricular arrhythmias, standard deviation of cardiointervals (SDNN) less than 71 ms, absence of thiazide diuretics in the basic antihypertensive therapy.

Ischemic Heart Disease: Overview
Atherosclerosis, the primary malefactor, orchestrates this dangerous condition. It manifests as the accumulation of fatty deposits, akin to insidious plaques, within arterial walls. As time elapses, these plaques metamorphose, hardening and...

Regulation of Stroke Volume
Preload refers to the degree of stretch on the heart before it contracts. It's analogous to the stretching of a rubber band; the more it's stretched, the more forcefully it snaps back. This concept is encapsulated in the Frank-Starling law of the...

Troponins, particularly cardiac troponins I and T, are the most precise and sensitive markers of myocardial injury. They are detectable within 4-6 hours of myocardial injury and remain...
