Left ventricular diastolic function and cardiotoxic chemotherapy

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Left ventricular ejection fraction falls when the myocardium has already lost a significant portion of its functional capacity. There are conflicting data on whether diastolic dysfunction precedes systolic dysfunction after cardiotoxic ...

Topoisomerase 2B Decrease Results in Diastolic Dysfunction via p53 and Akt: A Novel Pathway

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2020
Diastolic dysfunction is condition of a stiff ventricle and a function of aging. It causes significant cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, and in fact, three million Americans are currently suffering from this condition.

Arterial stiffening is a crucial factor for left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in a community-based normotensive population

International Journal of Cardiology. Hypertension, 2020
Background: Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is an important underlying hemodynamic mechanism for heart failure. Hypertension reportedly increases aortic stiffness with histological changes in the aorta assessed using aortic pulse wave ...

Myocardial Performance Index (Tei Index): A simple tool to identify cardiac dysfunction in patients with diabetes mellitus

Indian Heart Journal, 2016
Background: Cardiac dysfunction is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetes. Myocardial Performance Index (MPI/Tei Index) includes both systolic and diastolic time intervals to assess the global cardiac dysfunction.

Structural and functional changes in the heart and clinical features of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction in patients after myocardial infarction, comorbided with arterial hypertension

Zaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2013
Recently, much attention was paid to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and its role in the occurrence of chronic heart failure. In patients after myocardial infarction, diastolic dysfunction often precedes systolic dysfunction and predicts prognosis.

Pre-Clinical Diastolic Dysfunction

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
Pre-clinical diastolic dysfunction (PDD) has been broadly defined as left ventricular diastolic dysfunction without the diagnosis of congestive heart failure (HF) and with normal systolic function. PDD is an entity that remains poorly understood, yet has definite clinical significance.

Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Dialysis Patients Assessed by Novel Speckle Tracking Strain Rate Analysis: Prevalence and Determinants

International Journal of Nephrology, 2012
Background. Diastolic dysfunction is common among dialysis patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Novel echocardiographic speckle tracking strain analysis permits accurate assessment of left ventricular diastolic function ...

Prognostic impact of cardiac dysfunctions in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

American Heart Journal Plus
Background: The incidence and impact of cardiac dysfunctions after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are not understood. We aimed to characterize the prevalence of follow-up systolic and diastolic dysfunction and their associations with ...

Diastolic dysfunction: from the discovery to the latest updates

Zaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2019
Over a long period, chronic heart failure was primarily associated with impaired contractility of the left ventricular myocardium, which is a manifestation of systolic dysfunction. Based on modern ideas about the pathophysiology of CHF syndrome, systolic

Diastolic dysfunction in sickle cell

Blood, 2010
In adults with sickle cell disease (SCD), echocardiographic evidence of diastolic dysfunction is an independent risk factor for death that is additive to pulmonary hypertension. In this issue of Blood, Johnson and colleagues describe echocardiography and polysomnography results from 44 children with SCD.
