Monoplane Simpson’s Method Is Reliable for Left Atrial Volume Assessment in Small Dogs with Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease [PDF]

Veterinary Sciences
Left atrial enlargement is a key marker of disease progression and prognosis in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease. Echocardiographic assessment of left atrial volume provides a more comprehensive measure than linear dimensions, yet different two ...

Left atrial volume index is superior to left atrial diameter index in relation to coronary heart disease in hypertension patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Objective: Research hypothesis is that left atrial (LA) volume index is superior to LA diameter index for coronary heart disease and LA volume index is important to refine risk stratification.

Computed Tomography Confirms Increased Left Atrial Volume in Patients with Bayés Syndrome Referred for Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: Bayés syndrome is a recently identified condition that is defined by the presence of an interatrial block on a surface electrocardiogram, in addition to atrial arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation, tachycardia, or left atrial flutter. This

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy and Left Atrial Remodeling: A Novel Insight?

Biomedicines, 2023
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) restores ventricular dyssynchrony, improving left ventricle (LV) systolic function, symptoms, and outcome in patients with heart failure, systolic dysfunction, and prolonged QRS interval. The left atrium (LA) plays

Left atrial epicardial adipose tissue is closely associated with left atrial appendage flow velocity in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation

Scientific Reports, 2022
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) can play an important role in the occurrence and development of atrial fibrillation and stroke. In this study, we explored the relationship between left atrial epicardial adipose tissue (LA-EAT) and left atrial appendage ...
