Intracardiac Thrombus in Community-Acquired Klebsiella pneumonia – An Unprecedented Complication
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022 Left ventricular thrombi commonly occur in the presence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Their occurrence in the presence of preserved left ventricular systolic function is extremely rare. Here we present a case of a diabetic lady with community

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022 Cardiac amyloidosis usually presents with diastolic dysfunction, but sometimes systolic dysfunction develops, particularly at its advanced stage. However, the therapeutic strategy for patients with cardiac amyloidosis and systolic dysfunction remains ...

Atorvastatin in Nonischemic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2006 Sola et al. ([1][1]) found that atorvastatin improved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and reduced LV end diastolic dimensions in patients with nonischemic heart failure (HF) ([1][1]). Nonischemic HF is a heterogeneous condition with a variable clinical course.

Effect of Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction on Response to Warfarin [PDF]
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2016 Candidates for chronic warfarin therapy often have co-morbid conditions, such as heart failure, with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Previous reports have demonstrated an increased risk of over-anticoagulation due to reduced warfarin dose requirement in patients with decompensated heart failure.

Evaluation of left ventricular function in diabetics with ischemic heart disease
مجلة كلية الطب, 2010 Background: Diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease, with a higher incidence of myocardial infarction and sudden death. Left ventricular dysfunction is difficult to diagnose and to differentiate into diastolic and systolic ...

Early detection of Asymptomatic left ventricle Dysfunction in diabetic and pre-diabetic Patients [PDF]
Minia Journal of Medical Research, 2019 Diabetic patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are frequently associated with asymptomatic left ventricle systolic dysfunction, that LVEF is not known to be a sensitive marker for the early detection of subclinical LV systolic ...
