Left ventricular systolic and diastolic function in septic shock

Intensive Care Medicine, 1997
The identification of myocardial dysfunction in septic shock has not yet been fully elucidated. We therefore studied patients with persistently vasopressor-dependent septic shock, both with invasive haemodynamic monitoring and transoesophageal two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography (TEE).Prospective study.General ICU in University Hospital.All ...

Changes in hemodynamics of pulmonary artery using Flowire in a canine model of acute pulmonary thromboembolism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study investigated changes in pulmonary artery hemodynamics using a Flowire catheter and evaluated the accuracy of Doppler echocardiography in dogs with acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Ten healthy beagles were anesthetized, and acute pulmonary hypertension (PH) was induced by injecting 300‐μm dextran microspheres.

The effect of combined antihypertensive therapy on left ventricular diastolic function in resting and postexercise patients with arterial hypertension

Aktualʹnì Pitannâ Farmacevtičnoï ì Medičnoï Nauki ta Praktiki, 2015
The correction of left ventricular diastolic function abnormalities hasn’t been well investigated in arterial hypertension. The aim of the study was to determine the effects of two antihypertensive combinations (perindopril/amlodipine and losartan ...

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Left Ventricular Diastolic Function in a Predialysis Patient Population

West African Journal of Medicine, 2011
Diastolic dysfunction is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) accounting for 40%-66% of cardiovascular complications.To determine the prevalence of and factors associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in adult Nigerians with CKD at presentation and to compare findings with those of hypertensive patients with normal renal function.

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

Assessment of left atrial function by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and cardiovascular diseases have mutual risk factors that contribute to pathogenic processes, increasing mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to evaluate variations in left ventricular (LV)
