THE ROLE OF ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY IN ASSESSMENT OF HEART REMODELING IN PATIENTS WITH CTEPH
SUMMERY The study included 40 patients with CTEPH of different severity. All patients underwent 2D and 3D echocardiography to assess structure and function of right and left heart chambers, ventricular interaction, and ventricular-vascular coupling.

Predictive value of left atrial remodeling for response to cardiac resynchronization therapy
Response to cardiac resynchronization therapy varies significantly among patients, with one third of them failing to demonstrate left ventricular reverse remodeling after cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Mechanisms of postinfarct left ventricular remodeling [PDF]
Heart failure secondary to myocardial infarction (MI) remains a major source of morbidity and mortality. Long-term outcome after MI can be largely be defined in terms of its impact on the size and shape of the left ventricle (i.e., LV remodeling). Three major mechanisms contribute to LV remodeling: 1) early infarct expansion, 2) subsequent infarct ...

Prevalence and significance of alterations in cardiac structure and function in patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
<p><b>Background:</b> The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of abnormalities in cardiac structure and function present in patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) and to determine whether ...

Atrial remodeling is directly related to end-diastolic left ventricular pressure in a mouse model of ventricular pressure overload. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is often preceded by underlying cardiac diseases causing ventricular pressure overload. OBJECTIVE: It was our aim to investigate the progression of atrial remodeling in a small animal model of ventricular pressure ...

Left Ventricular Remodeling in Elite Athletes [PDF]
To the Editor: Pellicchia et al1 should be congratulated for their unique database and their recent paper on ventricular remodeling after cessation of competitive sports in elite athletes. Their conclusion that ventricular cavity size and wall thickness decreased in all athletes after detraining is consistent with reports in previous longitudinal ...

Atrial cellular electrophysiological changes in patients with ventricular dysfunction may predispose to AF [PDF]
<b>Background:</b> Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), but the atrial cellular electrophysiological mechanisms in humans are unclear.
