OBJECTIVE: To identify the incidence and risk factors of perioperative major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) undergoing non-cardiac surgery. METHODS: We prospectively analyzed the clinical data of 360 CHD patients who aged 75 years or older undergoing elective intermediate-to high-risk surgery in five medical centers across China from January 2008 to January 2010. The clinical variables included the 12-lead ECG and Troponin I levels after surgery...

INTRODUCTION: The non-invasive detection of myocardial ischaemia in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) remains a challenge. It is often associated with coronary artery disease or hypertension, but frequently there is no indication of cardiovascular pathology at presentation. Exercise-induced electrocardiographic ST segment changes are non-diagnostic. Confirming coronary artery disease has obvious implications for management. Several studies have shown greater cardiac mortality in the presence of LBBB...

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to analyze different prognoses in women and men with normal myocardial perfusion gated SPECT, according to stress test results. METHODS: Differences between women and men in terms of hard events (HE) (non-fatal acute myocardial infarction or cardiac death) and HE plus coronary revascularization (HE + CR) were analyzed in 2,414 consecutive patients (mean age 62.8 ± 13.5 years, 1,438 women) with a normal stress-rest gated SPECT, taking into account their stress test results...
