Left ventricular remodeling patterns in children with metabolic syndrome

open access: yesOne Health & Risk Management, 2020
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

Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema [PDF]

open access: yesThorax, 1974
Edwards, C. W. (1973) . Thorax , 29 , 75-80. Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema . The role of systemic hypertension in 10 emphysematous subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy was investigated. The medial thickness of the internal mammary artery was used as a parameter of raised systemic blood pressure during life.

Cell-based gene therapy for mending infarcted hearts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The goal of this study was to analyse the efficiency of a combinatorial cell/growth factor therapy to improve function of infarcted murine hearts. The Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) isoform, IGF-1Ea, has been shown to reduce scar formation and ...

Diagnostic value of R wave in aVL lead in left ventricular hypertrophy

open access: yesUniversidad Médica Pinareña, 2020
Introduction: left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as the increase in the thickness of the wall or the interventricular septal portion (or both). This entity represents an important risk factor that is related to the increase in mortality.
