The brain in heart failure [PDF]

, 2004
After atrial fibrillation, heart failure is the second most frequent cardiac association of stroke. Deteriorating left ventricular systolic function appears to increase the risk of cardioembolic stroke in heart failure.

Isolated Biventricular Noncompaction in an adult with severe pulmonary hypertension : an association reviewed. [PDF]

, 2012
Biventricular noncompaction is a recently recognized rare form of cardiomyopathy. It is characterized by altered structure of myocardial wall as a result of intrauterine arrest of compaction of the myocardial fibers in absence of coexisting congenital

Effect of changes in contractility on the index of myocardial performance in the dysfunctional left ventricle

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Background The index of myocardial performance has prognostic power in patients with cardiomyopathy and following myocardial infarction. As the index of myocardial performance has been shown to be preload and afterload dependent, the effect of altering ...
