Summary of the change in left ventricular systolic and diastolic parameters from baseline to 12 months in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%. P‐values indicate the significance of the adjusted mean difference of the parameters at 12 months between the beta‐blocker and digoxin arm. E/e′,

Quantitative assessment of regional peak myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction and relaxation times by tissue Doppler imaging [PDF]
Objective: To examine regional wall acceleration and its relation to relaxation. Study design: 8 sheep were examined by tissue Doppler ultrasound imaging (VingMed Vivid FiVe) in apical four chamber views to evaluate the left ventricular wall divided into six segments and the mitral annulus in two ...

ABSTRACT Estimation of mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) using peak velocity of pulmonary regurgitation (PR) obtained via continuous‐wave Doppler echocardiography has been applied in clinical practice. However, the theoretical basis for this method and whether to include right atrial pressure (RAP) in the calculation vary across reports, with no ...

Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.

Disorders of cardiovascular function and echocardiographic parameters of the heart in overt and subclinical hypothyroidism [PDF]
Decreased thyroid function leads to changes in cardiovascular hemodynamics, changes in myocardial contractility and accelerated atherosclerosis. Peripheral circulation in hypothyroidism is characterized by increased vascular resistance and prolonged ...

Development of an efficient mice model of cancer‐associated cardiac cachexia
This work establishes a preclinical framework for targeting ubiquitin pathways to mitigate the morbidity of cancer‐related cardiopathy. Our integrated approach delineates a hierarchical progression from subcellular dysfunction to macroscopic cardiac deterioration. These findings mechanistically link tumor‐induced cachexia to cardiac dysfunction through
