Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation during acute myocardial infarction associated with subclinical hyperthyroidism, severe three vessels coronary artery disease and elevation of prostate-specific antigen after TURP

Prostate-specific antigen kallikrein and acute myocardial infarction: Where we are. Where are we going?

“…(The information of these patients were updated). We have also reported elevation of PSA during AMI after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and without histological diagnosis of prostate cancer in a patient with a significant severe three vessels coronary artery disease [19]. We have also reported a significant coronary artery disease associated with coronary artery aneurysm and elevation of PSA during AMI [20].…”

“…PSA was also detected in other nonprostatic sources including human breast milk [14] and in 30% of breast tumors [15] and it was considered a sensitive molecular marker of hormone responsiveness [13]. Increased PSA serum levels, are a common finding in patients with nonprostatic illnesses [14,15] including AMI [16][17][18][19][20][21]. Prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) is frequently associated with increases of PSA [10,22] interpreted as marker for ischemic prostatic cell damage during CPR [10].…”

Atrial fibrillation and subclinical thyroid pathology (pathogenesis, signs and symptoms, treatment and prognosis)

“…Исследователи тем самым подтвердили наличие связи СГРТ с повышен-ным уровнем летальности вследствие сердечно-сосудистых катастроф, на основании чего мно-гие авторы рекомендуют лечение пожилых пациентов даже при легкой степени субклини-ческого гипертиреоидизма, в том числе для про-филактики риска возникновения фибрилляции предсердий [31][32][33][34][35][36].…”

“…По данным УЗИ отмечается снижение индекса массы левого желудочка, толщины межжелудочковой перегородки и тол-щины задней стенки левого желудочка во время диастолы. Положительные эффекты (повыше-ние уровня тиреотропного гормона до нормаль-ных цифр и снижение Т 4 ) сохраняются в тече-ние 3 мес после медикаментозного лечения [31,37,38].…”

Atrial fibrillation associated with subclinical hyperthyroidism

“…[1] It has been reported that subclinical hyperthyroidism is not associated with coronary heart disease or mortality from cardiovascular causes [2] but it is sufficient to induce arrhythmias [1] including atrial fibrillation [3][4][5][6] and atrial flutter [7]. It has also been reported that increased factor X activity in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism represents a potential hypercoagulable state.…”
