Dimensions change and left ventricular function carvedilol post therapy due to heart failure cases in children with congenital heart disease left-to-right [PDF]
Background: Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is the most common congenital disorder in newborns with a prevalence of 9.1 per 1000 live births. In left-to-right PJB shunts occur excessive volume burden on the ventricles, resulting in heart failure. Purpose:

New Imaging-Based Tools for the Assessment of Ventricular Function in Ischemic Heart Diseases
Ischemic heart disease morbidity and mortality are closely related to global and regional left ventricular function. The evaluation of left ventricular global function is a relevant part in the evolution of ischemic heart disease because it plays a ...

Effect of canagliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) greatly increases the risks of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. In particular, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction that develops from the early stages of T2DM is an important factor in the onset and ...

Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure predicts in-hospital outcomes in takotsubo syndrome
Aims: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is associated to serious adverse in-hospital complications. We evaluated the role of invasively assessed left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) for predicting in-hospital complications in TTS patients compared to ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction: identifying presence by left atrial function
Objective: The left atrium (LA) is exposed to left ventricular pressure during diastole. Applying the 2016 American Society of Echocardiography left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) guidelines, this study aims to investigate whether left atrial ...

INAPPROPRIATE LEFT VENTRICULAR MASS, IN CHILDREN WITH PREDYALITIC CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY
Background: Increased left ventricular (LV) mass in children with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) might represent an adaptive mechanism to compensate for increased workload.
