Mean and Variability of Lipid Measurements and Risk for Development of Subclinical Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2022
Background Subclinical left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is an emerging consequence of increased insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia is one of the few correctable risk factors of LVDD. This study evaluated the role of mean and visit-to-visit

Inorganic phosphate accelerates cardiac myofilament relaxation in response to lengthening

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Myocardial relaxation in late systole is enhanced by increasing velocities of lengthening. Given that inorganic phosphate (Pi) can rebind to the force-producing myosin enzyme prior to MgADP release and hasten crossbridge detachment, we hypothesized that ...

Need for Speed: The Importance of Physiological Strain Rates in Determining Myocardial Stiffness

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The heart is viscoelastic, meaning its compliance is inversely proportional to the speed at which it stretches. During diastolic filling, the left ventricle rapidly expands at rates where viscoelastic forces impact ventricular compliance.

Early diastolic filling dynamics in diastolic dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2003
The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the rate of peak early mitral inflow velocity and the peak early diastolic mitral annular tissue velocities in normal controls and to compare them with subjects with diastolic dysfunction.The relationship between early passive diastolic transmitral flow and peak early mitral annular ...

The significant coronary tortuosity and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease; What is the relation? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2018
Introduction: Although coronary tortuosity is relatively common in coronary angiograms, there is much debate over the significance of this anatomical variation.

A coupled mitral valve -- left ventricle model with fluid-structure interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the interaction between the valves and walls of the heart is important in assessing and subsequently treating heart dysfunction. With advancements in cardiac imaging, nonlinear mechanics and computational techniques, it is now possible to ...

Influence of manual thrombus aspiration on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2016
Introduction. Data on effects of thrombus aspiration on left ventricular diastolic function in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) population are scarce. Objective.

Numerical study of hemodynamics after stent implantation during the cardiac cycle

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2021
The descending aortic aneurysm is one of the most catastrophic cardiovascular emergencies resulting in high mortality worldwide. Clinical observations have pointed out that stent implantation in the sick aorta should probably allow stabilization of the ...

Diastolic heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2000
Primary diastolic failure is typically seen in patients with hypertensive or valvular heart disease as well as in hypertrophic or restrictive cardiomyopathy but can also occur in a variety of clinical disorders, especially tachycardia and ischemia. Diastolic dysfunction has a particularly high prevalence in elderly patients and is generally associated,
