Assessment of left atrial function by volumetric indices and tissue Doppler imaging in ischaemic and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2014
Left atrial (LA) contractility plays an important role in maintenance of cardiac output in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Although left atrial contractile dysfunction has been reported in dilated cardiomyopathy of ischemic and non ...

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

Assesment of Right Ventricular Function by Echocardiography in Patients with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy and Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathy

Journal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2018
Abstract Left ventricle (LV), right ventricular (RV) structural and functional changes occurs in advanced heart failure (HF). Assessment of RV function is important as it has prognostic significance in prognosis. RV functions, depending on the underlying cause of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICMP) or nonischemic cardiomyopathy(NICMP) are affected by ...

Myocarditis following COVID‐19 vaccine: incidence, presentation, diagnosis, pathophysiology, therapy, and outcomes put into perspective. A clinical consensus document supported by the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the ESC Working Group on Myocardial and Pericardial Diseases

European Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2000-2018, November 2022., 2022
Overview on incidence, diagnosis, and therapy in vaccine‐related myocarditis. CMR, cardiac magnetic resonance; EMB, endomyocardial biopsy; NSAIDS, non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs. Abstract Over 10 million doses of COVID‐19 vaccines based on RNA technology, viral vectors, recombinant protein, and inactivated virus have been administered worldwide.

Antibodies aggravate the development of ischemic heart failure [PDF]

, 2018
Heart-specific antibodies have been widely associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, it remains unclear whether autoantibodies mediate disease progression or are a byproduct of cardiac injury. To disambiguate the role of immunoglobulins in MI,

Myocardial Energy Metabolism in Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathy

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
As the most metabolically demanding organ in the body, the heart must generate massive amounts of energy adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from the oxidation of fatty acids, carbohydrates and other fuels (e.g., amino acids, ketone bodies), in order to sustain

A Novel Approach for Identifying Ischemic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2016
Refer to the page 41-47 Since Burch et al.1) first introduced the terminology "ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM)," it has been widely used in clinical practice. The condition may originate from prolonged ischemia, a single large infarct, or repeated micro-infarcts inducing left ventricular dysfunction and remodeling through apoptosis and fibrosis as a ...

Is low cardiac ejection fraction a risk factor for stroke? [PDF]

, 2013
Background and Purpose: Reduced ejection fraction (EF) ?35% has been suggested as a criterion for anticoagulation in persons with heart failure in sinus rhythm, but the literature supporting EF as an independent stroke risk factor is conflicting. We here

Assessment of Right Ventricular Function by Echocardiography in Patient with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy and Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathy

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
PP-061 Heart failure is a cardiovascular disease that is caused by impaired left ventricular systolic and diastolic function. Ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathies are the most common cause of heart failure. Its mortality is high despite to the new treatment regimens.
