Evaluation of left ventricular function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with or without pulmonary hypertension

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2013
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common entity in clinical practice. Development of right ventricular hypertrophy and eventual right side heart failure is also common in such patients.

Compensated right ventricular function of the onset of pulmonary hypertension in a rat model depends on chamber remodeling and contractile augmentation. [PDF]

, 2018
Right-ventricular function is a good indicator of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) prognosis; however, how the right ventricle (RV) adapts to the pressure overload is not well understood.

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction: identifying presence by left atrial function

Echo Research and Practice, 2018
Objective: The left atrium (LA) is exposed to left ventricular pressure during diastole. Applying the 2016 American Society of Echocardiography left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) guidelines, this study aims to investigate whether left atrial ...

The value of TDI combined with myocardial strain parameters in quantitative evaluation of left heart function in parturient with pregnancy-induced hypertension

Scientific Reports, 2023
This study aimed to investigate the value of tissue doppler imaging (TDI) and 4D myocardial strain parameters in evaluating left heart function of pregnant women with hypertension and the association between these parameters and relevant factors.

Influence of the Subclinical Hypothyroidism on the Left Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function (pilot study) [PDF]

, 2015
Introduction: The clinically manifested hypothyroidism is associated with systolic and diastolic dysfunction. Studies investigating the left ventricular function in subclinical hypothyroidism (ScH) have shown controversial results. The aim of the study

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.

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

, 2015
The 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 training in the

Speckle-tracking echocardiography combined with imaging mass spectrometry assesses region-dependent alterations [PDF]

, 2020
Left ventricular (LV) contraction is characterized by shortening and thickening of longitudinal and circumferential fibres. To date, it is poorly understood how LV deformation is altered in the pathogenesis of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes
