Left Ventricular Diastolic and Systolic Functions in Patients with Hypothyroidism [PDF]
Background and objectives: Long standing hypothyroidism may impair myocardial relaxation, but its effect on systolic myocardial function is still controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic function in patients with hypothyroidism. Materials and Methods: This study included 81 (age 42 ± 13 years,

Left ventricular end‐diastolic pressure in evaluating left ventricular function [PDF]
AbstractThere are several factors that could affect the left ventricular end‐diastolic pressure. These include heart rate, preload, afterload, pericardial or pleural pressure, diastolic properties of the left ventricle, and the left ventricular inotropic state.
