Current Understanding of the Pathophysiology of Myocardial Fibrosis and Its Quantitative Assessment in Heart Failure

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Myocardial fibrosis is an important part of cardiac remodeling that leads to heart failure and death. Myocardial fibrosis results from increased myofibroblast activity and excessive extracellular matrix deposition.

Functional and histopathologic correlation in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy: An integrated evaluation by multivariate analysis [PDF]

, 1987
To correlate left ventricular function and histologic features in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, precise indexes of hemodynamics and semiquantitative histologic data were combined for multivariate analysis.

Dilated cardiomyopathy evaluation with Imagenomics: combining multimodal cardiovascular imaging and genetics

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Systematic approach to dilated cardiomyopathy diagnosis. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a clinical diagnosis characterized by the presence of left ventricular dilatation and systolic disfunction unexplained by abnormal loading conditions or coronary artery disease.

METAB‐HTX: prospective, longitudinal cohort study evaluating cardiac and systemic metabolism after heart transplantation

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The METAB‐HTX trial is a prospective cohort study, evaluating cardiac and systemic metabolism among heart transplant recipients. Myocardial function, energetic and metabolism, allograft vasculopathy, allograft rejection, glucometabolism, lipometabolism, liver‐ and kidney function, leucocyte signatures and thromboinflammation will be evaluated ...

Presence of circulating anti-myosin antibodies in endomyocardial fibrosis. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
BackgroundEndomyocardial Fibrosis (EMF) is a tropical restrictive cardiomyopathy of unknown etiology with high prevalence in Sub-Saharan Africa, for which it is unclear whether the primary target of injury is the endocardial endothelium, the ...

Nonischemic left ventricular scar and cardiac sudden death in the young [PDF]

, 2016
Nonischemic Left Ventricular Scar (NLVS) is a pattern of myocardial injury characterized by midventricular and/or subepicardial gadolinium hyper enhancement at cardiac magnetic resonance, in absence of significant coronary artery disease.

Microvascular obstruction in cardiac amyloidosis

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is characterized by deposition of amyloid fibrils within the extracellular space, causing disarray of the myocardial structure and capillary architecture. This study aims to characterize the prevalence of microvascular obstruction (MVO) in patients with CA and to assess the association between MVO and prognosis ...

The risk of death according to left ventricular ejection fraction and right ventricular dilatation in 17 321 adults with heart failure from 40 high‐, middle‐ and low‐income countries – A Global Congestive Heart Failure (G‐CHF) study

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims The aim of this study was to describe the prognostic importance of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) versus right ventricular (RV) dilatation and dysfunction in patients with heart failure (HF) from countries of different income levels. Methods and results We enrolled 17 321 participants with HF from 40 countries.
