Is subclinical hypothyroidism associated with hyperhomocysteinemia?
In this study, we found no association between subclinical hypothyroidism and hyperhomocysteinemia. Other contributing factors, such as associated hyperlipidemia, may explain the observed increased risk of coronary artery disease in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism.
Independently of the presence of SHD, the SSA of frequent PVC in patients with depressed LVEF induced a progressive clinical and functional improvement. Improvement in heart failure parameters was related to baseline PVC burden and persistence of ablation success.
