Validation of impedance cardiography in pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
Background: Non-invasive methods of measuring cardiac output are highly desirable in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We therefore sought to validate impedance cardiography (ICG) against thermodilution (TD) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in ...

Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Dimension reduction of high-dimension categorical data with two or multiple responses considering interactions between responses [PDF]
This paper models categorical data with two or multiple responses, focusing on the interactions between responses. We propose an efficient iterative procedure based on sufficient dimension reduction. We study the theoretical guarantees of the proposed method under the two- and multiple-response models, demonstrating the uniqueness of the proposed ...

Bedside Assessment of Left Ventricular Function in the Respiratory Intensive Care Unit [PDF]
The measurement of the central venous pressure is a widely used technique for gaining information concerning the relationship of the blood volume as it relates to cardiac function. This concept has been widely popularized, and the central venous pressure

Abstract Aims Right ventricular (RV) remodelling, a progressive condition characterized by maladaptive cardiac structural and functional changes, primarily results from prolonged pressure overload in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Accurate, universal and easy‐to‐use biomarkers for assessing the severity of RV remodelling are lacking.

Do Pulmonary Hemodynamics Change After Effective Lung Volume Reduction Surgery for Emphysema?
The improvement in lung function, exercise test, blood gas levels, and symptoms in emphysema patients after volume reduction surgery is a result of improvements in breathing mechanics.

Evidence-based review of the use of the pulmonary artery catheter: impact data and complications [PDF]
The pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) was introduced in 1971 for the assessment of heart function at the bedside. Since then it has generated much enthusiasm and controversy regarding the benefits and potential harms caused by this invasive form of ...

Abstract Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has been shown to be an effective treatment option for patients experiencing cardiogenic shock (CS) with concomitant high‐grade mitral valve regurgitation. However, haemodynamic changes following M‐TEER have not been thoroughly investigated. Afterload mismatch, leading to the deterioration of
