Subclinical Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Patients with Septic Shock Based on Sepsis-3 Definition: A Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography Study

Critical Care Research and Practice, 2020
Introduction. Left ventricular dysfunction is quite common in septic shock. Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a novel, highly sensitive method for assessing left ventricular function, capable of detecting subclinical myocardial dysfunction ...

Sepsis-related cardiomyopathy: Not an easy task for ICU physicians

Journal of Intensive Medicine, 2022
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is common. In addition to acute coronary syndrome, at least two types of left ventricular dysfunction can occur in septic patients: typical septic cardiomyopathy (SC) and sepsis-related takotsubo cardiomyopathy (ST).

Reversible Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Secondary to Pazopanib [PDF]

Cureus, 2018
Pazopanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor used for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma and advanced soft tissue sarcoma. We describe a case report of a patient with spindle cell sarcoma who developed severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction after starting pazopanib therapy with subsequent recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction ...

Obese subjects show sex-specific differences in right ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]

, 2014
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 ...

Heart Failure with Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2015
Background: The prevalence and clinical outcomes of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction have not been well elucidated. Objective: To analyze the prevalence of heart failure with preserved left

Left ventricular mass and systolic dysfunction in essential hypertension [PDF]

Journal of Human Hypertension, 2002
A relation between left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and depressed midwall systolic function has been described in hypertensive subjects. However, a strong confounding factor in this relation is concentric geometry, which is both a powerful determinant of depressed midwall systolic function and a correlate of LV mass in hypertension.

Autoimmune myocarditis is not associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction [PDF]

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2019
AbstractBackgroundExperimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) is a common animal model for the investigation of the pathophysiology of myocarditis. Because of diverging findings from previous studies, we performed serial echocardiographic examinations throughout the course of the disease and investigated the dimensions of the murine heart and left ...

Contribution of serum FGF21 level to the identification of left ventricular systolic dysfunction and cardiac death

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2017
Aim The relationship between fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and cardiovascular disease has been well established in recent studies. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between FGF21 and left ventricular systolic dysfunction and cardiac ...

Implantation of Ventricular Assist Devices in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction [PDF]

ESC Heart Failure, 2021
Abstract Aims The outcomes of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (HCM-LVSD) undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation remain unclear. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical impact of LVAD implantation on clinical outcomes,
