Left atrial mechanics following preeclamptic pregnancy [PDF]

Preterm preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication associated with myocardial dysfunction and premature cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Left atrial (LA) strain is a noninvasive index of left ventricular end diastolic pressure and an early ...

Left atrial strain predicts exercise capacity in heart failure independently of left ventricular ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, 2022
Aims We hypothesized that left atrial (LA) remodelling and function are associated with poor exercise capacity as prognostic marker in chronic heart failure (CHF) across a broad range of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Effect of Left Atrial Appendage Closure in Combination With Catheter Ablation on Left Atrial Function for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: A single procedure combining left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) plus catheter ablation (CA) has been proven to be safe and feasible for treating atrial fibrillation (AF).

Quantitative assessment of left atrial functions by speckle tracking echocardiography in hypertensive patients with and without retinopathy [PDF]

, 2022
Purpose:The association between hypertensive retinopathy and left atrial(LA) impairment is unknown. Accordingly, it was aimed to investigate the possiblerelationship between hypertensive retinopathy and LA phasic functions by means oftwo ...

Abnormal Left Atrial Pump Strain in Patients with Proximal Left Circumflex Coronary Artery Occlusion among Patients with ST-elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging
Background: The left circumflex coronary artery (LCx) is the predominant source of blood supply to the left atrium. This study investigated whether discernable differences in left atrial strain exist among patients with ST-elevation acute coronary ...

Left atrial strain imaging differentiates cardiac amyloidosis and hypertensive heart disease

, 2020
Echocardiographic diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) can be difficult to differentiate from increased left ventricular (LV) wall thickness from hypertensive heart disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate left atrial (LA) function and deformation

Beyond wound sealing: A dual‐functional adhesive nanofiber membrane promoting coagulation and osteogenesis in extraction sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inspired by the suction mechanics of octopus suckers, a dual‐layer nanofiber membrane integrates antibacterial protection, strong wet adhesion, and osteogenic support, offering a bioinspired strategy for effective hemostasis and alveolar bone preservation.

Left Atrial Strain and the Risk of Atrial Arrhythmias From Extended Ambulatory Cardiac Monitoring: MESA

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Abnormalities in left atrial (LA) function often occur before LA structural changes and clinically identified atrial fibrillation (AF). Little is known about the relationship between LA strain and the risk of subclinical atrial arrhythmias ...
