Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Diagnostic role of Doppler echocardiography in constrictive pericarditis

open access: yes, 1994
Objectives. This study was conducted to assess the diagnostic role of Doppler echocardiography in constrictive pericarditis.Background. It has been observed that ptients with constrictive pericarditis have a characteristic Doppler pattern of respiratory ...

Echocardiography 2020: Toward deciphering the “Rosetta stone” of left ventricular diastolic function

open access: yes, 2020
In the year 1997, nearly a quarter-century ago, Nishimura and Tajik (J Am Coll Cardiol. 1997;30:8) suggested that Doppler echocardiography was the "Rosetta stone" (a metaphor for decrypting secrets of diastole) of left ventricular diastole, based solely ...

Periodontitis and its association with left ventricular geometry and function: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the cross‐sectional association between periodontal status and left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, an early and prognostically relevant marker of cardiovascular disease. Methods Data were drawn from two population‐based cohorts in the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP): SHIP‐START‐2 (N = 2333) and ...

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects.

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Feasibility of noninvasive transthoracic echocardiography/Doppler measurement of coronary flow reserve in left anterior descending coronary artery in patients with acute coronary syndrome: A new technique tested in clinical practice

open access: yes, 2003
Objective: The aim of this study was to test the feasibility and accuracy of transthoracic Doppler echocardiography measurement of coronary flow reserve (CFR) in the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) territory in the clinical setting of the ...

Successful propranolol therapy for infantile hepatic hemangioma with cardiac failure

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile hepatic hemangioma (IHH) can cause severe complications such as high‐output cardiac failure and growth faltering, requiring prompt diagnosis and intervention. In the absence of standardized treatment guidelines, propranolol has emerged as an effective and well‐tolerated therapy.

Correlation of Albuminuria and Renal Doppler Indices with Myocardial Function in Patients with Nephrotic Syndrome

open access: yesSVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is characterized by proteinuria and edema, often stemming from minimal change disease. Secondary causes include systemic conditions and medications.

5D Flow MRI Reveals Respiration‐Driven Changes in Blood Flow Energetics in Congenital Heart Disease

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Hemodynamic monitoring is essential for patients with right‐sided congenital heart disease (CHD). Respiration may have an increased impact on pulmonary flow in these patients that cannot be assessed by standard tools including 4D flow MRI. This study uses 5D flow MRI to assess respiratory‐cycle variations in flow energetics in patients

Middle Cerebral Artery Doppler and Cerebroplacental Ratio Predict Adverse Neurological Outcomes in Fetal Growth Restriction

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the efficacy of middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler ultrasonography in predicting neurological and respiratory outcomes in fetuses with fetal growth restriction (FGR) and to establish a correlation between MCA Doppler and head circumference (HC). Method Retrospective cohort study examining singleton pregnancies affected by
