Anesthetic management for renal transplant in patients with grade III diastolic dysfunction: case reports

open access: yesAin Shams Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is frequently noticed in patients with multiple co-morbidities. Echocardiography is used to determine the presence of diastolic dysfunction and to grade its severity.

Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause

Biomarkers of Inflammation in Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction

open access: yesDisease Markers, 2019
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is an important precursor to many different cardiovascular diseases. Diastolic abnormalities have been studied extensively in the past decade, and it has been confirmed that one of the mechanisms leading to heart failure is a chronic, low-grade inflammatory reaction.

Atrial cellular electrophysiological changes in patients with ventricular dysfunction may predispose to AF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
<b>Background:</b> Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), but the atrial cellular electrophysiological mechanisms in humans are unclear.

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
peer reviewedThe term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction worsens prognosis in patients with heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Fail
Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...

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

open access: yesRomanian 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
