Origins of cardiac dysfunction in cirrhosis [PDF]
Gut, 2003 Is cirrhotic cardiomyopathy a specific cardiac dysfunction of cirrhotic patients or is it induced by the hyperdynamic circulation in these patients? The clinical course of patients with advanced liver disease is complicated by progressive impairment in circulatory function characterised by low arterial pressure, high cardiac output, and decreased ...

Left ventricular dysfunction in critically ill patients [PDF]
, 2023 Background: Cardiac dysfunction is common in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients and can contribute to multiorgan failure and death. Despite this, few studies have been performed on pathogenies, prevalence, diagnosis and impact on mortality in ...

BET inhibition blocks inflammation-induced cardiac dysfunction and SARS-CoV-2 infection
, 2021 Cardiac injury and dysfunction occur in COVID-19 patients and increase the risk of mortality. Causes are ill defined but could be through direct cardiac infection and/or inflammation-induced dysfunction. To identify mechanisms and cardio-protective drugs,

The relationship of myocardial and liver T2* values with cardiac function and laboratory findings in transfusion-dependent thalassemia major patients: A retrospective cardiac MRI study [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2023 Introduction: Cardiac complications are the leading cause of death in thalassemia patients. It is assumed that progressive iron accumulation results in myocyte damage. Myocardial T2* measurement by cardiac MRI quantifies iron overload.
