Pre-operative point-of-care assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, an observational study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Background Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is an acknowledged peri-operative risk factor that should be identified before surgery. This study aimed to evaluate a simplified echocardiographic method using e’ and E/e’ for identification and ...

Diastolic dysfunction.

open access: yesCirculation journal : official journal of the Japanese Circulation Society, 2015
Despite the growing number of patients affected, the understanding of diastolic dysfunction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is still poor. Clinical trials, largely based on successful treatments for systolic heart failure, have been disappointing, suggesting that HFpEF has a different pathology to that of systolic dysfunction.

Association of PET-measured myocardial flow reserve with echocardiography-estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a known complication of HCM and is a strong predictor of mortality. We aim to investigate the relationship between microvascular dysfunction measured by quantitative PET and PH in HCM patients.MethodsEighty-nine ...

Prophylactic use of carvedilol to prevent ventricular dysfunction in patients with cancer treated with doxorubicin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective: Deterioration in ventricular function is often observed in patients treated with anthracyclines for cancer. There is a paucity of evidence on interventions that might provide cardio-protection.

Cardiovascular features of possible autonomous cortisol secretion in patients with adrenal incidentalomas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Low-grade incomplete post-dexamethasone cortisol suppression in patients with adrenal incidentalomas – recently defined as possible autonomous cortisol secretion (pACS) – has been associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality.

Acute effect of primary PCI on diastolic dysfunction recovery in anterior wall STEMI – A non-invasive evaluation by echocardiography

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal, 2018
Background: It is well established fact that acute coronary occlusion leads to diastolic dysfunction, followed by systolic dysfunction when myonecrosis occur.

Correlation of lipid profile with diastolic dysfunction in normotensive young patients under 40 years of age

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Diastolic dysfunction in young adults is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The identification of risk markers associated with diastolic dysfunction could allow for targeted primary prevention efforts.

Right ventricular diastolic function in post-surgical Tetralogy of Fallot patients: A pilot study to make a comparison between echocardiography and cardiac MRI

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease, 2021
Background: right ventricular (RV) systolic dysfunction is associated with poor outcomes in Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) patients. Conversely, the influence of diastolic dysfunction in this setting is poorly known.

Right Heart Remodeling in Patients with End-Stage Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis: Speckle Tracking Point of View [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Data regarding cardiac remodeling in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis are scarce. We sought to investigate right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) structure, function, and mechanics in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis.

Cardiac dysfunction in patients with end-stage liver disease, prevalence, and impact on outcome: a comparative prospective cohort study

open access: yesEgyptian Liver Journal, 2022
Background Without firm diagnostic criteria, the exact prevalence of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy still remains unknown. Its estimation is rather a difficult task as the disease is generally latent and shows itself only when the patient is subjected to overt
