Abstract
We present the Spanish adaptation made by the CEIPC of the European Guidelines on Cardiovascular Disease Prevention (CVD) in Clinical Practice 2008. This guide recommends the SCORE model for risk evaluation. The aim is to prevent premature mortality and morbidity due to CVD through the management of its related risk factors in clinical practice. The guide focuses on primary prevention and emphasizes the role of the nurses and primary care medical doctors in promoting a healthy life style, based on increasing physical activity, change dietary habits, and non smoking. The therapeutic goal is to achieve a Blood Pressure < 140/90 mmHg, but among patients with diabetes, chronic kidney disease, or definite CVD, the objective is <130/80 mmHg. Serum cholesterol should be < 200 mg/dl and cLDL<130 mg/dl, although among patients with CVD or diabetes, the objective is <100 mg/dl (80 mg/dl if feasible in very high-risk patients). Patients with type 2 diabetes and those with metabolic syndrome must lose weight and increase their physical activity, and drugs must be administered whenever applicable, to reach body mass index (BMI) guided and waist circumference objectives. In diabetic type 2 patients, the objective is glycated haemoglobin <7%. Allowing people to know the guides and developing implementation programs, identifying barriers and seeking solutions for them, are priorities for the CEIPC in order to transfer the recommendations established into the daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Several indexes have been reported to improve the accuracy of exercise test electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD), compared with the classical ST depression criterion. Some of them combine repolarisation measurements with heart rate (HR) information (such as the so-called ST/HR hysteresis); others are obtained from the depolarisation period (such as the Athens QRS score); finally, there are heart rate variability (HRV) indexes that account for the nervous system activity. The aim of this study was to identify the best exercise ECG indexes for CAD diagnosis. First, a method to automatically estimate repolarisation and depolarisation indexes in the presence of noise during a stress test was developed. The method is divided into three stages: first, a preprocessing step, where QRS detection, filtering and baseline beat rejection are applied to the raw ECG, prior to a weighted averaging; secondly, a post-processing step in which potentially noisy averaged beats are identified and discarded based on their noise variance; finally, the measurement step, in which ECG indexes are computed from the averaged beats. Then, a multivariate discriminant analysis was applied to classify patients referred for the exercise test into two groups: ischaemic (positive coronary angiography) and low-risk (Framingham risk index < 5%). HR-corrected repolarisation indexes improved the sensitivity (SE) and specificity (SP) of the classical exercise test (SE = 90%, SP = 79% against SE = 65%, SP = 66%). Depolarisation indexes also achieved an improvement over ST depression measurements (SE = 78%, SP = 81%). HRV indexes obtained the best classification results in our study population (SE = 94%, SP = 92%) by means of the very high-frequency power (VHF) (0.4-1 Hz) at stress peak.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Based on the results of clinical trials the guidelines of international societies recommend secondary prevention in patients. Several surveys have shown that the application of these guidelines in clinical practice is not adequate. The aim of this study was to determine the practical application of the recommendations of these guidelines and drug prescription in patients with coronary heart disease on hospital discharge. METHODS We included 3,215 coronary patients (myocardial infarction, angina and post-revascularization) discharged from 25 Spanish hospitals. We studied the prevalence of risk factors and the medical treatment on discharge in relation to gender, age, and clinical diagnosis. RESULTS We found a significantly higher prevalence of risk factors, except for smoking, in women. With regards to age and diagnosis neither was, the prevalence uniform, with an increase in hypertension and diabetes being predominantly seen in the elderly as well as angina patients. Fifty-six point three percent of the patients showed a total cholesterol greater than 200 mg/dl and 88% demonstrated a LDL-cholesterol greater than 100 mg/dl. The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia and low HDL was higher among women. The prescription of betablockers and lipid-lowering drugs is low, especially in women and in patients over the age of 64 years. CONCLUSIONS The registry of data concerning some risk factors in patient clinical files is poor. The prevalence of risk factors is higher in women. The prescription of betablockers and lipid-lowering drugs was lower than recommended, mainly among women and patients older than 64 years. There is a need for improvement in secondary prevention in coronary patients on hospital discharge.

Abstract
The discovery of the strong association between hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and the development of mixed cryoglobulinemia has motivated active testing of antiviral-directed alternative therapies. Several trials have demonstrated that classic cryoglobulinemia-associated manifestations improve with interferon-alpha (IFNalpha) treatment. Herein we report on 3 HCV-infected patients with severe cryoglobulinemia-related ischemic manifestations who were closely followed up during IFNalpha therapy. Clinical evaluations with special attention to ischemic lesions, liver function tests, and cryocrit determinations were serially performed. In addition to prednisone and immunosuppressive agents, the patients received IFNalpha at 3 x 10(6) units, 3 times per week for 2 months, 3 months, and 4 months, respectively. In all 3 patients, systemic features improved, liver function results returned to normal, and cryocrit values decreased. However, ischemic lesions became less vascularized and ischemia progressed, leading to transmetatarsal and subcondylar amputation, respectively, in 2 of the patients and fingertip necrosis and ulcer enlargement in the third. Skin biopsies performed before IFNalpha therapy and after 2 months of IFNalpha therapy in the third patient showed a significant decrease in subepidermal microvessels. When IFNalpha was discontinued, the lesions finally healed. Cryoglobulinemia-related ischemic lesions may worsen during IFNalpha treatment, presumably through a decrease in inflammation-induced angiogenesis. The anti-angiogenic activity of IFNalpha may delay the appropriate healing of ischemic lesions.

Abstract
Given evidence that ischemic heart disease is the most frequent cause of death in patients with cerebrovascular disease, we used ergometrics to screen 80 patients with TIA for silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) at the neurological unit of Hospital Clínico Universitario in Zaragoza, Spain. The patients were compared with a control group of 80 with no signs of heart disease. Neither the patients nor the controls had ever shown clinical signs of coronary ischemia and their baseline electrocardiograms were normal. Stress test results were positive in 25 (31%) of the TIA patients, and in 4 (5%) (p < 0.001) of the controls, showing that the prevalence of SMI is significantly higher in TIA patients than in the general population. Hiperlipidemia (75% testing positive versus 43% negative, p < 0.01) and diabetes (31% testing positive versus 13% negative, p < 0.01) were the risk factors statistically related with a positive stress test.

Abstract
Clinical decision-making in cardiology requires accurate estimates of the efficacy of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Defined as the quantitative integration of results from different studies on the same scientific question, meta-analyses are well-suited to summarize the evidence on the efficacy of clinical interventions. Meta-analyses aim at obtaining combined estimates of effect using all relevant information in a systematic fashion, complementing narrative reviews and expert committee reports. In this paper, the advantages and limitations of meta-analyses and their usefulness in clinical decision making in cardiology are illustrated using three recent examples in the literature--i.e., use of beta-blockers in secondary prevention of ischemic heart disease, intravenous streptokinase in acute myocardial infarction and fish intake in primary prevention of cardiovascular mortality. The steps to follow when conducting a meta-analysis are also discussed. Finally, a list of the most important meta-analyses in cardiology published to date is included for easy reference.

Abstract
Pericardial effusion (PE) as a hypothyroidism associated sign, is something that can be found with relative frequency; nevertheless, cardiac tamponade (CT) as the first sign of this disease may be considered exceptional especially in young patients. We report a 31 years old woman with clinical symptoms and signs of CT that in the forward workshop was diagnosed of primary hypothyroidism as cause of the CT. We shortly describe the case and review the literature, emphasizing the importance of the knowledge of CT trigger factors in myxedematous PE, as well as its usual benign evolution with hormonal treatment, without recurrences of the CT after pericardiocentesis is performed. This justify a conservative approach, in spite of the slow resolution of the PE what can take as long as 1.5 years.

Abstract
Fifty one cases of tumors detected along a 20 years period (1969 throughout 1989) in newborn infants are described. Most frequent kinds of neonatal tumors were teratomas (n: 30), followed by vascular tumors (n: 6), neuroblastomas IV-S (n: 5), hepatic hamartomas (n: 5), renal tumors (n: 3), soft tissue sarcomas (n: 2) and melanocytic melanoma (n: 1). Follow up was extended from 1 to 20 years. Death occurred in two patients of this series: one in a case of sacrococcygeal teratoma, who died of septicemia secondary to urinary tract obstruction and infection before any attempt of surgical treatment was possible, and by multiple pulmonary metastases one year after apparently satisfactory surgical treatment in another patient with neuroblastoma.

Abstract
UNLABELLED To evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of silent myocardial ischemia in asymptomatic patients with non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, 50 diabetic patients (24 males, 26 females; mean age +/- SD = 58.3 +/- 6.4 years) with a normal resting electrocardiogram were prospectively studied. The total group underwent 48 hours electrocardiographic Holter monitoring, medical history, physical examination an a test for cardiac autonomic neuropathy. Serum levels of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and Hb A1c were determined. An ischemic episode was defined as asymptomatic ST-segment depression greater than or equal to 1 mm, greater than or equal to 1 min. Day-to-day variability was studied. Six hundred and forty one episodes with a total duration of 1,014 minutes of ischemia were recorded in 29 patients (58%). The mean number of episodes in 48 hours per patients was 19.2 +/- 21.9 and the mean time of ischemia over this period was 149 +/- 374 minutes. The average heart rate at the onset of the episodes was 95.2 +/- 8.4 beats per minute. Two hundred and ninety two (45.6%) episodes occurred without heart rate changes and in 349 (54.4%) episodes an increase in heart rate was detected at the onset of the episode. An important day-to-day variability in the number of episodes (73.8 +/- 29.5%) and ischemia duration (76.9 +/- 88.8%) was found. Fifteen patients had no ischemic episodes in either the first or second monitoring day. Silent ischemia was related to higher levels of total cholesterol (p less than 0.05), LDL-cholesterol (p less than 0.05) and Hb A1c (p less than 0.01) and was associated to diabetes complications: retinopathy (p less than 0.001), peripheral vascular disease (p less than 0.01), polyneuropathy (p less than 0.05), nephropathy (p less than 0.05), and impotence (p less than 0.01). Silent ischemia was not associated to abnormal test for cardiac autonomic neuropathy. CONCLUSIONS prevalence of silent myocardial ischemia during daily activities in asymptomatic diabetic patients is very high (58%). Both an increase in oxygen demand and a decrease in oxygen supply may be involved in its pathophysiology. In diabetic patients silent ischemia is related to the presence of other risk factors for coronary artery disease and to diabetes complications and shows a marked day-to-day variability.

Abstract
Coronary artery spasm is the most frequent cause of ischemic heart disease without coronary atherosclerosis once other causes such as cardiomyopathy, arteritis, coronary ectasia, valvular heart disease or hypertensive heart disease are eliminated. We report 23 patients, 15 males and 8 females, whose ages ranged from 34 to 63 years, with a mean age of 47 years, with demonstrated angina pectoris and myocardial ischemia, whose cardiac cineangiography showed no signs of atherosclerosis. Nevertheless, a significant retardation in the progression speed of the contrast medium was observed, as indirect evidence of the increment in coronary resistance at the arteriole level. Coronary spasm was ruled out by administration of intracoronary ergonovine, and other causes of myocardial ischemia, such as muscular bridges, were also discarded. The clinical presentation of the ischemic heart disease was unstable angina (UA) in 21 patients and myocardial infarction (MI) in 2. In the UA group, 14 patients showed ischemic changes in the ECG while the pain lasted, and in 8 patients the changes were present during the stress test. In all of them, the stress test perfusion scan with thallium 201 showed myocardial ischemia. In the IM group, the diagnosis was based on the clinical findings, the ECG, the enzyme curve, and the technetium 99 cardiac scintigram. In the two-year follow-up the prognosis has been favorable with treatment based on calcium antagonists. Nowadays 18 patients are asymptomatic, four have stable angina and only one has unstable angina.

Abstract
Forty patients with organic cardiopathies and permanent atrial fibrillation were divided at random into two similar groups in relation to their diagnoses and ages. Twenty patients were treated with digoxine alone, and the other 20 with digoxine plus amiodarone hydrochloride. Comparison of results from each group showed statistical significant differences (p less than 0.0005) regarding total digoxine dosage and length of treatment. Mechanism of action of this synergia is discussed, and the association of digitalis and amiodarone is recommended to reduce digitalization time in patients with paroxysmal auricular tachycardia.

Abstract
A relatively high incidence of heart failure is noted among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) without clearly defined clinical causes. To evaluate left ventricular performance in patients with SLE without evidence of cardiovascular disease, noninvasive measurement of the systolic time intervals was carried out. Simultaneous recording of the electrocardiogram, phonocardiogram and carotid arterial pulsation were obtained in 25 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and compared with 22 normal subjects. The patients with SLE had a shorter left ventricular ejection time (P less than 0.05), a longer pre-ejection period (P less than 0.02) and an increased ratio of pre-ejection period/left ventricular ejection time (P less than 0.005). These abnormalities on ventricular function were independent of age, duration of the disease, hypertension, renal involvement, anemia, immunologic activity and corticosteroid treatment. Several etiologic possibilities are discussed and the clinical usefulness of this method to detect and follow-up the cardiac dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus is emphasized.
