Cardiovascular abnormalities in patients with a carcinoid syndrome.

The Netherlands journal of medicine, 2002
Heart failure is an important reason for morbidity and mortality in patients with carcinoid. Carcinoid heart disease is caused by increased levels of circulating serotonin. Because carcinoids also produce catecholamines, we evaluated cardiovascular manifestations of autonomic dysfunction in patients with a carcinoid syndrome.Twenty patients with a ...

Cardiovascular Abnormalities in Myotonic Dystrophy

Chest, 1973
A 44-year-old patient with myotonic dystrophy and cardiac involvement is presented with the unusual feature of persistent atrial flutter for over 34 months. Focal myocardial dysfunction demonstrated by left ventriculography simulated similar findings in ischemic heart disease. Coronary angiography revealed, however, normal coronary arterial tree.

Cardiovascular malformations and other cardiovascular abnormalities in neurofibromatosis 1

American Journal of Medical Genetics, 2000
Although it is well recognized that a peripheral vasculopathy may occur in patients with neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1), it is unclear whether cardiovascular abnormalities are more common. We reviewed the frequency of cardiovascular abnormalities, in particular, cardiovascular malformations (CVMs), among 2322 patients with definite NF1 in the National ...

Coagulation abnormalities and cardiovascular disease

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1999
In patients with excessive venous thrombosis, genetic defects predisposing to thrombosis can be found in 60-80%. Increased plasma levels of coagulation proteins such as fibrinogen and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) are associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction.

Cardiovascular abnormalities in Taiwanese patients with mucopolysaccharidosis

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2014
The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of rare inherited metabolic diseases that can cause damages in various organs including the heart. This study aimed to review the medical records of Taiwanese patients with MPS in order to evaluate the cardiovascular involvement in those patients.From 2000 to 2012, the medical records of 60 patients with MPS ...

Cardiovascular Abnormalities in Sleep-Disordered Breathing

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003
The role of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in the development of persistent daytime pulmonary hypertension (PH) and cor pulmonale is controversial and has not been extensively studied. In this review we discuss the physiological changes that occur during SDB in the cardiovascular system, as well as review the most recent literature examining the ...

Mercury induced cardiovascular abnormalities in the chicken

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1977
Juvenile chickens were either chronically exposed to 300 microgram/ml of Hg in the drinking water (chronic dosage--CD) or acutely exposed to either 3 mg of Hg/kg body wt (acute low dosage--ALD) or 12 mg of Hg/kg body wt (acute high dosage--AHD) administered intramuscularly for five consecutive days. Only the CD and AHD treatments retarded normal growth.
