Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in the Community: Impact of Diagnostic Criteria on the Burden, Correlates, and Prognosis

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is common, particularly in women and older individuals, and it is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Alogliptin prevents diastolic dysfunction and preserves left ventricular mitochondrial function in diabetic rabbits

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
Background There are increasing evidence that left ventricle diastolic dysfunction is the initial functional alteration in the diabetic myocardium.

Association between systemic sclerosis and left ventricle dysfunction: Findings from observational studies

Heliyon, 2023
Objectives: Cardiac involvement is common in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients. In this study, we aimed to systematically evaluate the relationship between SSc and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), especially the left ventricular diastolic dysfunction,

Diastolic Dysfunction and the New Recommendations for Echocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function: Summary of Guidelines and Novelties in Diagnosis and Grading

Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 2019
Diastolic function represents the filling property of the heart during diastole. Diastole comprises four phases: isovolumic relaxation, rapid filling, slow filling (diastasis), and active filling.

Diastolic dysfunction – negative prognostic factor in patients with hepatic cirrhosis [PDF]

Romanian Medical Journal, 2017
Objectives. To evaluate the left ventricular diastolic function in patients with cirrhosis and to establish its relation to the degree of severity of liver disease as well as to biological markers of cardiac dysfunction. Methods. We included 72 patients

Life‐Threatening Bradycardia in Anti‐NMDA‐Receptor Encephalitis and a Novel Use for Permanent Pacing

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (pNMDARE) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder that can cause severe autonomic dysfunction, including symptomatic bradycardia and asystole. Dysautonomia can last for years, making it very challenging to manage.

A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...

Effect of changes in contractility on the index of myocardial performance in the dysfunctional left ventricle

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Background The index of myocardial performance has prognostic power in patients with cardiomyopathy and following myocardial infarction. As the index of myocardial performance has been shown to be preload and afterload dependent, the effect of altering ...

Multimodality Imaging Clues for Restrictive Cardiomyopathy

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is an entity that can be mistaken for several mimicking conditions, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. These patients present with heart failure, which is essentially due to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, with ...
