On in-silico estimation of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure from cardiac strains [PDF]
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is a group of diseases that adversely affect the passive phase of the cardiac cycle and can lead to heart failure. While left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is a valuable prognostic measure in LVDD patients, traditional invasive methods of measuring LVEDP present risks and limitations ...

Non-invasive electrical markers in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy.
Introduction The left ventricular hypertrophy is related with the genesis of ventricular arrhythmiasand sudden death. Depending of the cause, different histologycalmodifications that generate different arrhythmogenic substrates, takesplace.

Automated and Interpretable Patient ECG Profiles for Disease Detection, Tracking, and Discovery [PDF]
The electrocardiogram or ECG has been in use for over 100 years and remains the most widely performed diagnostic test to characterize cardiac structure and electrical activity. We hypothesized that parallel advances in computing power, innovations in machine learning algorithms, and availability of large-scale digitized ECG data would enable extending ...

Left ventricular remodeling patterns in children with metabolic syndrome
Introduction. Pathological left ventricular (LV) remodelling in children with metabolic syndrome (MS) is associated with a significant increase in cardiometabolic risk. However, data regarding the prevalence of LV remodelling patterns in children with MS

Screening for Fabry Disease in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Documentation of a Novel Mutation
Background: Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disease caused by enzyme α-galactosidase A deficiency as a result of mutations in the GLA gene. Cardiac involvement is characterized by progressive left ventricular hypertrophy.

Ventricular torsional relation to ventricular fiber arrangement [PDF]
Left ventricular torsion from helically oriented myofibers is a key parameter of cardiac performance. Physicians observing heart motion on echocardiograms, during cardiac catheterization, or in the operating room, are impressed by the twisting or rotary motion of the left ventricle during systole.
