Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: Prognostic Value of Electroanatomic Voltage Mapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Endocardial voltage mapping (EVM) identifies low-voltage right ventricular (RV) areas, which may represent the electroanatomic scar substrate of life-threatening tachyarrhythmias.

Cardiac tamponade in left ventricular dysfunction.

open access: yes, 1990
Echocardiographic and hemodynamic data were measured in closed-chest dogs during graded cardiac tamponade (pericardial pressure 5, 10, and 15 mm Hg) before and after production of diffuse ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects.

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Right ventricular volumes and function in thalassemia major patients in the absence of myocardial iron overload

open access: yes, 2010
Aim: We aimed to define reference ranges for right ventricular (RV) volumes, ejection fraction (EF) in thalassemia major patients (TM) without myocardial iron overload.Methods and results: RV volumes, EF and mass were measured in 80 TM patients who had ...

SEVERE POSTDUCTAL COARCTATION OF AORTA PRESENTING LIKE IDIOPATHIC DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY

open access: yesGomal Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017
Left ventricular systolic dysfunction in childhood can be due to many causes. It may be because of sequel of myocarditis, metabolic causes, storage disorder, congenital heart disease or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.

Prevalence and predictors of left ventricular dysfunction among patients with chronic kidney disease attending Muhimbili National Hospital in Tanzania — a cross-sectional study

open access: yes, 2018
Pilly Chillo, Eva Mujuni Department of Internal Medicine, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania Purpose: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa and is a significant cause of mortality, which ...

Lipoprotein(a) is associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in a Chinese population of patients with hypertension and without coronary artery disease

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction: Data on relationship between lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and non-ischemic heart dysfunction are limited. This study is aimed to assess the association between Lp(a) and left ventricular systolic dysfunction in a Chinese population of patients ...

The effect of heat stress, dehydration and exercise on global left ventricular function and mechanics in healthy humans

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.This thesis examined the effect of heat stress, dehydration and exercise on global left ventricular (LV) function and LV twist, untwisting and strain (LV ...

An investigation into the mechanisms, consequences and moderators of intradialytic hypotension in paediatric haemodialysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The relationship between hypertension and cardiovascular morbidity has long been recognised. However evidence is mounting implicating hypotension and not hypertension as the predominant risk factor for mortality.

Prevalence of cardiac dysfunction and longitudinal changes in cardiac function after breast cancer treatment with chemotherapy with/without radiation therapy compared with controls

open access: yesBreast
Introduction: Breast cancer survivors are known to have a higher prevalence of mild systolic cardiac dysfunction compared to the general population, due to the effects of chemotherapy with/without radiation therapy.
