Coronary computed tomographic angiography and atherosclerosis: prognostic validation of coronary scores in a Slovenian cohort Open
Background Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) provides information on coronary atherosclerosis burden and extent. In the present analysis, we compared the prognostic impact of coronary scores (maximal coronary stenosis, segme…

Interplay of anxiety, depression, vascular function, and biomarkers in post-myocardial infarction patients Open
Background and aims Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of mortality. Depression and anxiety are common in CAD patients and negatively affect quality of life, physical functioning, and adherence to cardiac rehabilitation (CR) …

Acute effects of high intensity interval training versus moderate intensity continuous training on haemostasis in patients with coronary artery disease Open
Exercise training is associated with an acute net increase in coagulation, which may increase the risk of atherothrombosis in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. We sought to compare the acute haemostatic effects of a bout of moderate-…

Predictive value of inflammatory and coagulation biomarkers for venous thromboembolism in COVID-19 patients Open
BACKGROUND: The predictive value of coagulation markers for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in COVID-19 patients has been investigated with conflicting results. OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the correlation between biomarkers and VTE …
View article: HFpEF and Atrial Fibrillation: The Enigmatic Interplay of Dysmetabolism, Biomarkers, and Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction
HFpEF and Atrial Fibrillation: The Enigmatic Interplay of Dysmetabolism, Biomarkers, and Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction Open
Background. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has a complex pathophysiology that encompasses systemic proinflammatory state and dysregulated levels of cardiometabolic and oxidative stress biomarkers. The prevalence of …
View article: The Correlation between the Triglyceride-Glucose Index and Coagulation Markers in Patients with Recent Acute Myocardial Infarction
The Correlation between the Triglyceride-Glucose Index and Coagulation Markers in Patients with Recent Acute Myocardial Infarction Open
Background. Metabolic abnormalities and hypercoagulability seem to have an important predictive role in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has emerged as a good marker for metabolic syndrome w…

The impact of interval vs. continuous training on troponin and natriuretic peptide levels in post-myocardial patients: a randomised control trial Open
Introduction High-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) are two well established and used exercise modalities for cardiac rehabilitation in patients after myocardial infarction. However, data …
View article: Effects of Cardiac Rehabilitation and Diet Counselling on Adherence to the Mediterranean Lifestyle in Patients after Myocardial Infarction
Effects of Cardiac Rehabilitation and Diet Counselling on Adherence to the Mediterranean Lifestyle in Patients after Myocardial Infarction Open
Adherence to the Mediterranean lifestyle—as captured by the Medlife Index Questionnaire (i.e., encompassing a Mediterranean diet as well as other aspects of healthy living, such as food preparation, physical activity, and socializing)—has …
View article: Vascular Function in Patients After Myocardial Infarction: The Importance of Physical Activity
Vascular Function in Patients After Myocardial Infarction: The Importance of Physical Activity Open
Background: Patients after myocardial infarction have impaired vascular function. However, effects of lifestyle, e.g., physical activity level, on endothelial function and arterial stiffness remain scarce. The aim of our study was to inves…
View article: Association between the triglyceride-glucose index and a procoagulant state in coronary artery disease
Association between the triglyceride-glucose index and a procoagulant state in coronary artery disease Open
Background Metabolic risk factors and a procoagulant state represent major drivers of atherothrombosis. In terms of metabolic risk factors, the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has recently emerged as a marker of metabolic syndrome and an …
View article: Prognostic Impact of Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease Detected by Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography
Prognostic Impact of Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease Detected by Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography Open
Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) is a promising technique for ruling out coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with chest pain. We aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of nonobstructive CAD on CCTA. We retrospecti…
View article: The impact of interval vs. continuous training on exercise capacity and endothelial function in post-myocardial patients: a randomised control trial
The impact of interval vs. continuous training on exercise capacity and endothelial function in post-myocardial patients: a randomised control trial Open
Introduction High-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) are two most common and well established exercise modalities for cardiac rehabilitation in patients after myocardial infarction. Yet, da…
