Late ventricular potentials in risk assessment of the occurrence of complex ventricular arrhythmia in patients with myocardial infarction and heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2004
Aim. To determine the prognostic significance of late ventricular potentials on signal-averaged electrocardiogram and left ventricular ejection fraction for the occurrence of complex ventricular arrhythmia in patients treated with accelerated tissue-type

Diabetes Mellitus and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: Role of Obesity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a growing epidemic and accounts for half of all patients with heart failure. Increasing prevalence, morbidity, and clinical inertia have spurred a rethinking of the pathophysiology of heart failure with ...

Sacubitril/valsartan in patients with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction and worsening heart failure: A review

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2023
Heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, as well as growing economic burden.

Plasma levels of free fatty acid differ in patients with left ventricular preserved, mid-range, and reduced ejection fraction

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2018
Background Free fatty acids (FFAs) predicted the risk of heart failure (HF) and were elevated in HF with very low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) compared to healthy subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether total levels of FFA

Factors influencing left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with coronary microvascular disease and obstructive coronary artery disease

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2020
Objective The aim of our research was to evaluate the relationship involving left ventricular ejection fraction, low density lipoprotein, B-type natriuretic peptide, Troponin I and coronary flow reserve, and to determine the predictors of left ...

Left ventricular ejection fraction is determined by both global myocardial strain and wall thickness

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2015
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the mathematical relationship between left ventricular ejection fraction and global myocardial strain. A reduction in myocardial strain would be expected to cause a fall in ejection fraction. However,

Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 and echocardiography in sepsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) has emerged as a biomarker of cardiac stretch or remodeling, and has demonstrated a role in acutely decompensated heart failure. However, its role in sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction is still unknown.

Relation of Gallbladder Motility to Viscosity and Composition of Gallbladder Bile in Patients with Cholesterol Gallstones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background/Aims: Increased viscosity and supersaturation of cholesterol in gallbladder bile, as well as an impaired motility of the gallbladder, are considered to be important factors in the pathogenesis of cholesterol gallstones.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Medicine, 2018
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents a heterogeneous collection of conditions that are unified by the presence of a left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%, evidence of impaired diastolic function and elevated natriuretic peptide levels, all within the context of typical heart failure signs and symptoms.
