Rheumatic heart disease is the major cause of cardiovascular death in children and young adults in developing countries. In the present study, we investigated the changes in cardiac biomarker levels before and after percutaneous balloon mitral commissurotomy (PMC).
Patients with severe mitral stenosis undergoing elective PMC were prospectively enrolled. The blood sample was taken for the measurement of cardiac biomarkers (CKMB and CTnI) before and then 6 hours and 12 hours after PMC. The maximum level of the biomarkers after the procedure was determined for analysis.
Of a total of 56 patients (mean age =44.0±14.1 y), 91.1% were female. Except for 1 patient, all the other patients had cardiac biomarkers before the procedure in normal ranges. The serum levels of CTnI and CKMB increased significantly after the procedure. The patients who underwent complex septostomy had a significantly higher rise in CKMB (9.4±9.34 IU/L vs. 3.17±12.39 IU/L; P=0.03) and CTnI (0.15±0.20 µg/L vs. 0.07±0.12 µg/L; P=0.002).
The serum levels of CTnI and CKMB increased significantly following the procedure, especially in patients who underwent complex septostomy.

In the present paper, Tepe Sarghal’eh and its surface fingings have been studied. This survey coincided with excavation of one of the sites in the region. The site had previously been identified. In this review we have tried to gather complete data. The discovered potsherds show this mound just belongs to late Chalcolithic period and Il-Khanid (Mongol) dynasty. What makes this mound a remarkable one is the existence of first Uruk pottery samples in Kurdistan province. In other words, finding such potsherds in Sarghal’eh Tepe indicates the importance of this site – as it is located on the route to Mesopotamia – and the influence of Mesopotamia on this area, selecting appropriate places as well as the site size.
