Cardiac rehabilitation and 5-year mortality after acute coronary syndromes: The 2005 French FAST-MI study.
2016
IF 2.271; International audience; Background. - Clinical studies have shown a beneficial effect of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on mortality.Objective. - To study the effect of CR prescription at discharge on 5-year mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods. - Participants, from the 2005 French FAST-MI hospital registry, were 2894 survivors at discharge, divided according to AMI type: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI; n=1523) and non-STEMI (NSTEMI; n=1371). The effect of CR prescription on mortality was analysed using a Cox proportional hazards model.Results. - At discharge, 22.1% of patients had a CR prescription. Patients referred to CR were youn…
Smoking and FOS expression from blood leukocyte transcripts in patients with coronary artery disease.
2011
International audience; OBJECTIVE: Analysis of the leukocyte transriptome, in particular the Finkel-Biskis-Jinkins Osteosarcoma (c-Fos) gene, which has a prominent role in inflammation, provides new insights into atherosclerosis mechanisms. Although smoking is a major risk factor, the links between smoking status and coronary artery disease (CAD) remains unclear. We aimed to analyze the relationship between smoking status and c-Fos expression in circulating leukocytes of patients with CAD. METHODS: c-Fos expression was measured by RT-Q-PCR, from blood leukocytes of 239 consecutive patients after acute myocardial infarction (MI). The patients were asked about their smoking status and stratif…
