The Accuracy of the Electrocardiogram in Identifying Chronic Heart Failure due to Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

open access: yesمجلة المختار للعلوم, 2013
There is a common assumption that a normal electrocardiography rules out chronic heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). In this research work, an assessment of the value of electrocardiography in identifying patients with ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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).

Evaluation of left ventricular function in diabetics with ischemic heart disease

open access: yesمجلة 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 ...

Atorvastatin in Nonischemic Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

open access: yesJournal 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.

Association Between Midwall Late Gadolinium Enhancement and Sudden Cardiac Death in Patients With Dilated Cardiomyopathy and Mild and Moderate Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction

open access: yesCirculation, 2017
Background: Current guidelines only recommend the use of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in those with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ...

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

open access: yesArquivos 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

Association of SNP Rs9943582 in APLNR with Left Ventricle Systolic Dysfunction in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease in a Chinese Han GeneID Population. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Heart failure affects 1-2% of the adult population worldwide and coronary artery disease (CAD) is the underlying etiology of heart failure in 70% of the patients.

Helium Protects Against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in Mice via Suppressing Toll-Like Receptor 4-Nuclear Factor κB-Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha/ Interleukin-18 Signaling

open access: yesChinese Journal of Physiology, 2020
The nonanesthetic noble gas helium (He) can protect many organs against ischemia and reperfusion injury, such as liver and heart. However, the role of He on cardiac dysfunction during sepsis is not clear.

Evaluation of right and left ventricular function using speckle-tracking echocardiography in thalassemic patients

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2021
Background : Beta-thalassemia major is the most common chronic hemolytic anemia among children and adolescents across the world. Several studies have demonstrated that thalassemic patients who have preserved left ventricle systolic function could still ...
