Left ventricular ejection fraction… What else?

Cardiology Journal, 2020
The main terminology used to describe heart failure (HF) is based on the measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and current guidelines divide patients into three subgroups: heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) if ...

Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction [PDF]

Definitions, 2020
• In patients with need for assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides an accurate and reproducible test for measuring left ventricular masses, volumes, and ejection fraction.

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.

Statins and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction Following Doxorubicin Treatment

NEJM Evidence, 2022
Statins taken for cardiovascular indications by patients with breast cancer and lymphoma during doxorubicin treatment may attenuate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decline, but the effect of statins on LVEF among patients with no cardiovascular indications is unknown.A double-blind, placebo-controlled, 24-month randomized trial of 40 mg of ...

Benefits of Permanent His Bundle Pacing Combined With Atrioventricular Node Ablation in Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Heart Failure With Both Preserved and Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundClinical benefits from His bundle pacing (HBP) in heart failure patients with preserved and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction are still inconclusive.

Prognostic impacts of changes in left ventricular ejection fraction in heart failure patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction [PDF]

Open Heart, 2020
BackgroundIt has been reported that recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is associated with better prognosis in heart failure (HF) patients with reduced EF (rEF).

Overweight and obesity impair left ventricular systolic function as measured by left ventricular ejection fraction and global longitudinal strain

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
Aims Obesity is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and heart failure but it is unclear to which extent it is related to left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Prognosis of Adults With Borderline Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

JACC: Heart Failure, 2016
This study sought to examine the association of a borderline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% to 55% with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a community-based cohort.Guidelines stipulate a LVEF >55% as normal, but the optimal threshold, if any, remains uncertain.
