Application of updated guidelines on diastolic dysfunction in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2017
Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is suggested to be associated with higher mortality in severe sepsis and septic shock, yet the methods of diagnosis described in the literature are often inconsistent. The recently published 2016 American

Treatment of atherosclerotic renovascular hypertension: review of observational studies and a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
open9Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis can cause ischaemic nephropathy and arterial hypertension. We herein review the observational and randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing medical and endovascular treatment for control of hypertension and ...

Maternal Cardiovascular Impairment in Pregnancies Complicated by Severe Fetal Growth Restriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
—Fetal growth restriction and preeclampsia are both conditions of placental etiology and associated to increased risk for the long-term development of cardiovascular disease in the mother. At presentation, preeclampsia is associated with maternal global

Diastolic function evaluation in children with ventricular arrhythmia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Premature ventricular contractions (PVC) are frequently seen in children. We evaluated left ventricular diastolic function in PVC children with normal left ventricular systolic function to detect whether diastolic function disturbances affect physical ...

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the

Speckle-tracking echocardiography combined with imaging mass spectrometry assesses region-dependent alterations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Left ventricular (LV) contraction is characterized by shortening and thickening of longitudinal and circumferential fibres. To date, it is poorly understood how LV deformation is altered in the pathogenesis of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes

Interval training normalizes cCardiomyocyte function, diastolic Ca2+ control, and SR Ca2+ release synchronicity in a mouse model of diabetic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the present study we explored the mechanisms behind excitation-contraction (EC)-coupling defects in cardiomyocytes from mice with type-2 diabetes (db/db), and determined whether 13-weeks of aerobic interval training could restore cardiomyocyte Ca2 ...

Elastic recoil signal on tissue doppler imaging of mitral annulus as a qualitative test to identify left ventricular diastolic function

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2023
Introduction: Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is common on preoperative screening among patients undergoing surgery. There is no simple screening test at present to suspect LV diastolic dysfunction. This study was aimed to test the hypothesis,

NO and cardiac diastolic function [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 1999
Time for primary review 34 days. Since the first report of a role for nitric oxide (NO) in modulating myocardial contractile function in 1991 [1], an enormous number of studies have been published in this field (recently reviewed in Refs. [2–4]). It is now recognised that, under physiological conditions, the major sources of NO that are important for

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

open access: yes, 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.
