    Myocardial bridges of the coronary arteries in the human fetal heart
    (SPRINGER, 2010) ÖZDOĞMUŞ, NECMETTİN ÖMER; Cakmak, Yusuf Oezguer; Cavdar, Safiye; Yalin, Aymelek; Yener, Nuran; Ozdogmus, Omer
    During the last century, many investigators reported on myocardial bridges in the adult human heart. In the present study, 39 human fetal hearts (the mean gestastional age was 30 weeks) were studied for myocardial bridging, and the results were correlated with adult data. Among the 39 (27 male and 12 female) fetal hearts studied, 26 bridges were observed on 18 fetal hearts (46.2%). Ten of the bridges had one myocardial bridge, whereas double myocardial bridges were observed in eight fetal hearts. The most frequent myocardial bridges were observed on the left anterior descending artery (LAD), which had 13 bridges (50%). Eight (30.7%) myocardial bridges were on the diagonal artery, and on the posterior descending artery there were five (19.3%). Myocardial bridges were not observed on the circumflex artery. The data presented in this study may provide potentially useful information for the preoperative evaluation of the newborn and may have a clinical implication for sudden fetal death.

    The high 2D:4D finger length ratio effects on atherosclerotic plaque development
    (ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010) ÖZDOĞMUŞ, NECMETTİN ÖMER; Ozdogmus, Omer; Cakmak, Yusuf Oezguer; Coskun, Murat; Verimli, Ural; Cavdar, Safiye; Uzun, Ibrahim
    Background: The index finger to ring finger length ratio (2D:4D) of the right hand are affected by prenatal testosterone levels in male. To date, it has been determined that the high 2D: 4D ratio is related to the myocardial infarction, however no research has revealed the relationship between the high 2D: 4D ratio whose coronary artery shows atherosclerotic plaque development. Objective: The aim of this study was to display the relationship between the 2D: 4D ratio and atherosclerosis formation in male autopsy cases. Methods: We designed a study in 100 heterosexual male autopsies whose mean age was 21.4 +/- 2.47 (range between 17 and 25). The 2nd and 4th digits were measured on the palmar surface of the right hand and taken the right coronary artery to show the atherosclerotic plaque development. Results and conclusion: Grade 3 group had significantly higher 2D: 4D ratio compared to Grade 1 and Grade 2 groups (p = 0.02 for both). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
