Screening for Fabry Disease in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Documentation of a Novel Mutation

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2015
Background: Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disease caused by enzyme α-galactosidase A deficiency as a result of mutations in the GLA gene. Cardiac involvement is characterized by progressive left ventricular hypertrophy.

Diabetes, gender, and left ventricular structure in African-Americans: the atherosclerosis risk in communities study

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Background Cardiovascular risk associated with diabetes may be partially attributed to left ventricular structural abnormalities. However, the relations between left ventricular structure and diabetes have not been extensively studied in African ...

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]

, 2015
The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the

Non-invasive electrical markers in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy.

Revista Cubana de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2011
Introduction The left ventricular hypertrophy is related with the genesis of ventricular arrhythmiasand sudden death. Depending of the cause, different histologycalmodifications that generate different arrhythmogenic substrates, takesplace.

Adaptations to iron deficiency: cardiac functional responsiveness to norepinephrine, arterial remodeling, and the effect of beta-blockade on cardiac hypertrophy. [PDF]

, 2002
BackgroundIron deficiency (ID) results in ventricular hypertrophy, believed to involve sympathetic stimulation. We hypothesized that with ID 1) intravenous norepinephrine would alter heart rate (HR) and contractility, 2) abdominal aorta would be larger ...

Interactions of short-term and chronic treadmill training with aging of the left ventricle of the heart [PDF]

, 2015
With aging, there is a decline in cardiac function accompanying increasing risk of arrhythmias. These effects are likely to be mechanistically associated with age-associated changes in calcium regulation within cardiac myocytes.

Effects of candesartan, an angiotensin II receptor type I blocker, on atrial remodeling in spontaneously hypertensive rats [PDF]

, 2015
Hypertension-induced structural remodeling of the left atrium (LA) has been suggested to involve the renin–angiotensin system. This study investigated whether treatment with an angiotensin receptor blocker, candesartan, regresses atrial remodeling in ...
