Assessment of left ventricular diastolic function with cardiovascular MRI: what radiologists should know [PDF]

, 2012
Diastolic dysfunction is a common entity and the predominant cause of heart failure in 40%-50% of patients. Diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction is clinically relevant and is associated with a poor prognosis.

The Prognostic Effect of Circadian Blood Pressure Pattern on Long-Term Cardiovascular Outcome is Independent of Left Ventricular Remodeling [PDF]

, 2019
We aimed to investigate the predictive value of 24 h blood pressure (BP) patterns on adverse cardiovascular (CV) outcome in the initially untreated hypertensive patients during long-term follow-up. This study included 533 initially untreated hypertensive

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.

Human cardiomyocyte calcium handling and transverse tubules in mid-stage of post-myocardial-infarction heart failure [PDF]

, 2018
Aims: Cellular processes in the heart rely mainly on studies from experimental animal models or explanted hearts from patients with terminal end-stage heart failure (HF).

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 ...

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 ...

Epidemiologic observations guiding clinical application of a urinary peptidomic marker of diastolic left ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

, 2018
Hypertension, obesity, and old age are major risk factors for left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD), but easily applicable screening tools for people at risk are lacking.

Pulmonary artery stiffness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) and emphysema: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) COPD Study [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and particularly emphysema are characterized by stiffness of the aorta, due in part to accelerated elastin degradation in the lungs and aorta. Stiffness of the pulmonary arteries (PAs) may also be
