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

, 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 ...

Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Left Ventricular Structure and Function

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Obesity leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease morbidity and death, including heart failure. Bariatric surgery has been proven to be the most effective long‐term weight management treatment. This study investigated the changes in

The effect of weightlifting upon left ventricular function and markers of cardiomyocyte damage

, 2005
The purpose of this study was to assess left ventricular (LV) function and biochemical markers of myocyte after prolonged weightlifting activity. Seventeen male subjects (age range 20–34 years) performed a 90-min bout of weightlifting exercise consisting

Left ventricular diastolic function and cardiotoxic chemotherapy

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Left ventricular ejection fraction falls when the myocardium has already lost a significant portion of its functional capacity. There are conflicting data on whether diastolic dysfunction precedes systolic dysfunction after cardiotoxic ...
