729-1 Modulation of Cardiac Hypertrophy by Blockade of the Renin Angiotensin System: Effects on LVH Regression, Gene Expression, and Survival [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to investigate the contribution of the renin angiotensin system to maintenance of pressure overload left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Rats with fixed ascending aortic stenosis were treated with either vehicle (VEH, n=36)

Abstract Objective To individually analyze echocardiographic features in fetuses with ductal‐dependent congenital heart diseases (DDCHD) and to verify the anatomical characteristics corresponding to the echocardiogram scan views. Background Ductal‐dependent congenital heart diseases depends on the ductus arteriosus (DA) remaining open to maintain ...

Pulmonary Venous Index as Additional Diagnostic Criteria for Fontan Palliation
Backgroud. The results of the Fontan operation, depending on the anatomy of the pulmonary arteries, have been studied quite well. Various indices have been proposed to assess the degree of hypoplasia of the pulmonary arterial bed (Nakata, Reddy, and McGoon indexes).

Background Doxorubicin (DOX) can cause cumulative cardiotoxicity in dogs, but the incidence of clinical cardiotoxicity in dogs receiving DOX has not been determined. Hypothesis/Objectives To determine if the duration of DOX infusion influences the incidence of cardiotoxicity, to characterize the incidence of clinical cardiotoxicity in dogs during or ...

Clinical Study to Individual Treatment for Major Aortopulmonary Collaterals of Tetralogy of Fallot
Objectives. To build a guideline for the individual treatment of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with major aortopulmonary collaterals (MAPCAs) and tentatively establish the occlusion index of MAPCAs. Methods. According to the diameter of the aortopulmonary collaterals (R: mm) and the bodyweight of the children (weight: kg), K= ((∑R2)/Wt) was set as the ...

Left ventricular volume determination in dogs: a comparison between conductance technique and angiocardiography [PDF]
Left ventricular (LV) volume was determined simultaneously by monoplane cineangiocardiography and conductivity using a multielectrode conductance catheter at rest and during pressure loading in seven mongrel dogs (mean body weight 22 kg). LV volumes were

Non-invasive cardiac imaging for evaluation of cardiotoxicity in cancer patients - early detection and follow-up [PDF]
Cardiotoxicity is an increasingly important clinical entity that occurs as a result of untoward, and incompletely understood, effects on cardiac function.
