Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Chronic Aortic Dissection
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007In chronic aortic dissection, compression of the true lumen by the expanded false lumen may be a cause of left ventricular afterload elevation, which may result in diastolic dysfunction. We compared the left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography between those patients who had double-barrel descending aortic dissection and those who did not.

Adiponectin and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Heart, 2010To the Editor: The recent publication by Unno et al concluded that adiponectin is an indicator of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. …

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Diastolic Dysfunction
2001Our understanding of systemic hypertension and its vascular complications has been expanding steadily in the past two decades. This progress has refined methods for the measurement of hypertensive disease complications and allowed an inquiry into the clinical factors that may accelerate them.

Atrium electromechanical interval in left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2011Eur J Clin Invest 2011AbstractBackground Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction has great effects on the left atrium (LA). A recently developed electromechanical interval (PA‐TDI), which was determined as the time interval from the initiation of P wave deflection to the peak of local lateral LA tissue Doppler imaging signal, was reported to be ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
Abstract This chapter discusses echocardiographic techniques used in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. It begins by discussing the normal physiology of diastole, as well as the conditions that lead to dysfunction. The chapter continues with echocardiographic assessment of diastolic dysfunction using 2D imaging,openaire +1 more source
[Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in cardiomyopathies].
Archives des maladies du coeur et des vaisseaux, 1996Although physiologists have recognised for many years that cardiac performance is based on two functions, systolic and diastolic, it has only been in the last 15 years that clinicians have acknowledged the essentiel role of diastole in the physiopathology of cardiac disease.

“Isolated” Diastolic Dysfunction in Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2006We sought to investigate the prescence of "isolated" diastolic disease, defined as reduced long-axis early diastolic velocity with normal systolic velocity, in 21 young patients with left outflow tract obstruction. Most patients had depressed systolic velocities despite normal ejection fractions.

Pulsus Alternans in Diastolic Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Angiology, 1997Pulsus alternans is usually found in patients with reduced systolic ventricular function. We describe a patient with recurrent pulmonary edema, hypertension, bilateral renal artery stenosis, but with normal systolic function. Pulsus alternans was demonstrated in both pulmonary artery, right ventricle, and left ventricle pressures.

Postresuscitation Left Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Dysfunction
Circulation, 1997Background Global left ventricular dysfunction after successful resuscitation is well documented and appears to be a major contributing factor in limiting long-term survival after initial recovery from out-of-hospital sudden cardiac death.
