Endothelial dysfunction in patients with recent myocardial infarction and hyperhomocysteinaemia: effects of vitamin supplementation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hyperhomocysteinaemia is a prothrombotic condition that may cause oxidative endothelial injury and impair endogenous fibrinolysis. Vitamin supplementation enhances endothelial function in hyperhomocysteinaemic patients, but responses in patients with co-existing coronary artery disease have been

Reduction of plasma lipid and homocysteine levels by pyridoxine, folate, cobalamin, choline, riboflavin, and troxerutin in atherosclerosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Elevated plasma homocysteine and lipid levels are risk factors for atherosclerosis. The plasma levels of homocysteine, determined in acid hydrolyzates of plasma, were found to be correlated with total cholesterol (r = 0.47, P less than 0.001), triglycerides (r = 0.40, P less than 0.01), and body

Cerebral infarction after caesarean section due to heterozygosity for homocystinuria; a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Eleven days after a caesarean section cerebral infarction was diagnosed. The underlying cause appeared to be a heterozygous form of homocystinuria. This inborn error in methionine metabolism increases the risk of premature arteriosclerosis, even in heterozygotes. The biochemical abnormalities can be

Lowering homocysteine in patients with ischemic stroke to prevent recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, and death: the Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention (VISP) randomized controlled trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In observational studies, elevated plasma total homocysteine levels have been positively associated with ischemic stroke risk. However the utility of homocysteine-lowering therapy to reduce that risk has not been confirmed by randomized trials. OBJECTIVE To determine whether high doses of

Design and synthesis of novel pyridoxine 5'-phosphonates as potential antiischemic agents.

Only registered users can translate articles

On the basis of previous reports that the natural cofactor pyridoxal 5'-phosphate 1 appears to display cardioprotective properties, a series of novel mimetics of this cofactor were envisioned. As pyridoxal 5'-phosphate is a natural compound and is subject to biological degradation and elimination

Effect of homocysteine-lowering therapy with folic acid, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 on clinical outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention: the Swiss Heart study: a randomized controlled trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Plasma homocysteine level has been recognized as an important cardiovascular risk factor that predicts adverse cardiac events in patients with established coronary atherosclerosis and influences restenosis rate after percutaneous coronary intervention. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of

Reversible diencephalic dysfunction as presentation of deep cerebral venous thrombosis due to hyperhomocysteinemia and protein S deficiency: Documentation of a case.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 45-year-old man presented with global headache, vomiting and abnormal behavior after cross-country run at high altitude. There was no seizure, loss of consciousness, fever or head injury. He was conscious, abulic and uncooperative with normal vitals. There was no focal neurological deficit. Non

The natural history of vascular disease in homocystinuria and the effects of treatment.

Only registered users can translate articles

Among 40 patients with homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency diagnosed in the state of New South Wales, Australia (population 6 million) and followed long-term, there were 10 deaths at ages 2-30 years. Of these 8 were definite vascular deaths, one was a presumed vascular

Liver transplantation for a patient with homocystinuria.

A 24-yr-old man was diagnosed with HCU during neonatal screening and remained on a pyridoxine, vitamin B12, folic acid, and betaine regimen with dietary methionine restriction for more than 10 yr. He had normal mental development, marfanoid appearance, myopia because of lens dislocation, and

Association between serum homocysteine, vitamin B12, folate and Thai coronary artery disease patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Homocysteine is an intermediate compound formed during metabolism of methionine. The plasma level of homocysteine is dependent on the genetically regulated level of essential enzymes and the intake of folic acid, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), and vitamin B12 (cobalamine). Elevated serum

Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention (VISP) trial: rationale and design.

Only registered users can translate articles

Elevated plasma levels of homocyst(e)ine [H(e)] are surprisingly common and strongly associated with endothelial dysfunction and a marked increase in vascular risk. Treatment with a combination of folic acid, pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and cobalamin (vitamin B12) reduces plasma H(e) levels in most

Efficacy and safety of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (MC-1) in high-risk patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery: the MEND-CABG II randomized clinical trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is frequently performed and effective; however, perioperative complications related to ischemia-reperfusion injury, including myocardial infarction (MI), remain common and result in significant morbidity and mortality. MC-1, a naturally

Oral pharmacologic doses of cobalamin may not be as effective as parenteral cobalamin therapy in reversing hyperhomocystinemia and methylmalonic acidemia in apparently normal subjects.

Only registered users can translate articles

A postmenopausal female evaluated for thrombophilia because of bone infarcts had mild hyperhomocysteinemia, which increased when hormone replacement was discontinued. Serum folate, cobalamin and methylmalonic acid were normal. Compound heterozygosity for C677T/A1298C methylenetetrahydrofolate

Delayed diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis in a pregnant Nigerian: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is the most severe form of tuberculosis and is commoner in those with immunsuppression. Diagnosis continues to be difficult particularly in resource limited settings, and this may be truer in the setting of pregnancy. We report the case of a pregnant Nigerian who was

Paradoxical reaction in tubercular meningitis resulting in involvement of optic radiation.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 25-year-old woman was diagnosed to have tubercular meningitis (TBM) with a right parietal infarct. She responded well to four-drug anti-tubercular treatment (ATT), systemic steroids and pyridoxine. Steroids were tapered off in one and a half months; she was put on two-drug ATT after two months.
