Severe left ventricular failure in ischemic heart disease may contraindicate conservative surgical procedures. To redefine therapeutic indications, the clinical and angiographic data of 143 patients (137 men and 6 women) with ischemic heart disease and a left ventricular ejection fraction less than 0.30 ...
show significant increases in both the incidence and prevalence of heart failure in the US population over the past decade [2], likely influenced by the aging of the population with an increased incidence of hypertension, and improved treatment and survival of patients with ischemic heart disease....

In contrast, frequencies of "intermediate" CD14++CD16+ monocytes increased with more advanced disease stages (r = 0.501, p < 0.0001), with a major increase in patients with stage IV disease (ischemic rest pain) compared to patients with Rutherford stage III (intermittent cl...
Such different conclusions might have derived from the heterogeneity of patient cohorts. Therefore, in the present study, we included only patients undergoing MVA or MVR with complete myocardial revascularization. We also excluded patients with congenital valvular heart disease, rheumatic valvular disease,...
