Analysis of left ventricular diastolic function [PDF]
Our understanding of left ventricular diastolic function has evolved with our understanding of Doppler echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular filling dynamics. Left ventricular diastolic function consists of several variables which affect the Doppler echocardiographic recordings in a complex way. While there are still limitations with the non-

Role of left ventricular regional nonuniformity in hypertensive diastolic dysfunction [PDF]
Objectives. This study investigated 1) the role of left ventricular diastolic nonuniformity in hypertensive left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and 2) the effect of a calcium channel antagonist on diastolic nonuniformity in hypertensive and ...

Interleukin-18 mediates cardiac dysfunction induced by western diet independent of obesity and hyperglycemia in the mouse [PDF]
Obesity and diabetes are independent risk factors for heart failure and are associated with the consumption of diet rich in saturated fat and sugar, Western diet (WD), known to induce cardiac dysfunction in the mouse through incompletely characterized ...

CLINICAL ASSESSMENT OF LEFT VENTRICULAR DIASTOLIC FUNCTION [PDF]
Diastolic left ventricular disease is being increasingly incriminated as a cause of limitation of exercise tolerance, whether or not ejection fraction is normal,1,2 though the mechanisms by which it does so are far from clear. Indeed, it has been suggested that no diastolic abnormality at all need be demonstrated for a diagnosis of possible or probable
