Obese subjects show sex-specific differences in right ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]
As right ventricular (RV) remodeling in obesity remains underinvestigated, and the impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on RV hypertrophy is unknown, we aimed to investigate whether (1) sex-specific patterns of RV remodeling exist in ...

Improved ventricular function during inhalation of PGI(2) aerosol partly relies on enhanced myocardial contractility [PDF]
Inhaled prostacyclin (PGI(2)) aerosol induces selective pulmonary vasodilation. Further, it improves right ventricular ( RV) function, which may largely rely on pulmonary vasodilation, but also on enhanced myocardial contractility.

Right Ventricular Function, Peripheral Edema, and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness
The cardiorenal syndrome generally focuses on left ventricular function, and the importance of the right ventricle as a determinant of renal function is described less frequently. In a cohort of critically ill patients with echocardiographic measurements

The effects of a supervised cardiac rehabilitation exercise programme on left ventricular function in patients with ischaemic heart disease (interim report) [PDF]
Purpose. This study sought to determine the effects of a supervised cardiac rehabilitation exercise programme on left ventricular function in patients with ischaemic heart disease and any degree of left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Subjects.
