LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY; HAEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS
Cardiovascular system diseases are playing the outstanding role in the cause ofmorbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. Left ventricular hypertrophy is one of the universalstructural abnormalities in patients on regular dialysis. Objective: The target of the study wasto search out the frequency of left ventricular hypertrophy in end stage renal ...

Acute complete heart block in dogs [PDF]
A study has been conducted immediately and up to 18 days after the surgical production of complete heart block in dogs. Immediately after surgery cardiac output, coronary flow, and mean arterial pressure were reduced in rough proportion to the degree of ...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Hypertension
The level of left ventricular (LV) mass as measured by echocardiography or other techniques in hypertensive patients reflects the integrated effects of the level of arterial pressure, the concomitant volume load imposed on the heart, and of alterations in arterial waveform morphology as well as of body size and non-hemodynamic variables.

Myocardial fibrosis as an early manifestation of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Myocardial fibrosis is a hallmark of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and a proposed substrate for arrhythmias and heart failure. In animal models, profibrotic genetic pathways are activated early, before hypertrophic remodeling.
