Plasma N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide as Prognostic Marker in Fatal Cardial Decompensation with Sunitinib Malate Therapy [PDF]
, 2010 A 74-year-old man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a history of cardiac failure was treated with sunitinib malate. MUGA echocardiography could not detect a relevant change in the ejection fraction although the clinical situation of the patient ...

Heart Failure And Midrange Ejection Fraction: Implications Of Recovered Ejection Fraction For Exercise Tolerance And Outcomes [PDF]
, 2016 Evidence-based therapies for heart failure (HF) differ significantly according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, few data are available on the phenotype and prognosis of patients with HF with midrange LVEF of 40% to 55%, and the ...

End-systolic Pressure–Volume Relation, Ejection Fraction, and Heart Failure: Theoretical Aspect and Clinical Applications [PDF]
, 2015 A mathematical formalism describing the nonlinear end-systolic pressure–volume relation (ESPVR) is used to derive new indexes that can be used to assess the performance of the heart left ventricle by using the areas under the ESPVR (units of energy), the

Potention of L-carnitine supplementation on changes in ejection fraction and left ventricular dimension in case of dilatative cardiomyopathy in children [PDF]
, 2020 Background: Cardiomyopathy is a rare cardiac muscle disease with poor prognosis and high mortality. The main goal of dilated cardiomyopathy therapy is to restore and maximize cardiac function, but to date no medication has met these criteria.
