Heart Failure With a Normal Ejection Fraction [PDF]

Circulation, 2002
To the Editor: In a recently published article in Circulation , Dr Zile and colleagues1 evaluated patients with a history of heart failure (HF) and a normal left ventricular (LV) systolic function. Invasive hemodynamic and/or Doppler echocardiographic indices of LV filling were abnormal in all patients, suggesting that diastolic HF can be diagnosed ...

Novel Biologically Active Glass Fiber Functionalized Using Magnesium Phosphate Cement Promotes Bone and Vascular Regeneration

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
In this study, a new type of bioactive glass fiber ‐based composite magnesium phosphate bone cement is prepared and verified that its mechanical strength and biological properties. In addition, the cement may have played a biologically active role in the Notch and HIF signaling pathways.

Fractional flow reserve in patients with reduced ejection fraction

European Heart Journal, 2019
Abstract Aims Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has never been investigated in patients with reduced ejection fraction and associated coronary artery disease (CAD). We evaluated the impact of FFR on the management strategies of these patients and related outcomes.

Mechanical and Microstructural Effects of ZrO2 Nanoparticles in Fe20Cr Oxide Dispersion‐Strengthened Alloys Processed by Laser Powder Bed Fusion

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The influence of oxide nanoparticle synthesis route and concentration on microstructure and high‐temperature performance of additively manufactured oxide dispersion‐strengthened steels is investigated. Comparing laser‐generated and chemically synthesized ZrO2 nanoparticles, the study reveals how dispersion quality, crystal structure and particle size ...

Quantitative gated blood pool tomographic assessment of regional ejection fraction: Definition of normal limits [PDF]

, 1992
Objective. Our aim was to select a method of analysis for gated blood pool tomography that reduced variability in a group of normal subjects, allowed comparison with normal limit files and displayed results in the bull's-eye format.Background ...

The relation between cardiac 123I-mIBG scintigraphy and functional response 1 year after CRT implantation [PDF]

, 2020
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a disease-modifying therapy in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Current guidelines ascribe CRT eligibility on three parameters only: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), QRS duration, and New ...

Finite Element Modeling of Residual Stress Formation during Nanosecond Laser Ablation of Stainless Steel

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates residual stress formation during single‐spot nanosecond laser ablation of stainless steel. Experimental validation and a parametric study using finite element simulations are employed to analyze thermal effects, ablation dynamics, and stress evolution.

Management, survival, and predictors of mortality among hospitalized heart failure patients at Debre Markos comprehensive specialized hospital, Northwest Ethiopia: Prospective cohort study

SAGE Open Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Heart failure is a major public health problem worldwide. Since heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and preserved ejection fraction are different clinical entities, in-hospital mortality may occur at different rates.

Frequency of predischarge ventricular arrhythmias in postmyocardial infarction patients depends on residual left ventricular pump performance and is independent of the occurrence of acute reperfusion [PDF]

, 1994
Objective. To test whether acute reperfusion of the infarct-related vessel after an acute myocardial infarction is associated with a subsequent reduction in spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias that is independent of ventricular ejection fraction, 1,944 ...
