Circulating troponin and further left ventricular ejection fraction improvement in patients with previously recovered left ventricular ejection fraction [PDF]
ESC Heart Failure, 2020 Aims The aim of this study is to determine factors associated with long‐term recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with heart failure with reduced EF (HFrEF) and if further recovery also occurs in this group.

Effect of changes in contractility on the index of myocardial performance in the dysfunctional left ventricle [PDF]
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 ...
