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 ...

Myocardial Strain to Detect Subtle Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, 2016
Abstract In daily clinical practice, LV systolic function is routinely assessed with the use of two-dimensional echocardiography. Using biplane LV end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes, LVEF is calculated. The introduction of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography has improved the accuracy of echocardiographic assessment of ...

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.

Severity of Functional Mitral Regurgitation on Admission for Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Predicts Long‐Term Risk of Rehospitalization and Death

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) has emerged as a therapeutic target in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction. The significance of FMR in acute decompensated heart failure remains obscure.

Aldosterone Blockade in Patients With Systolic Left Ventricular Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2003
The patient, W.L., is a 62-year-old white man with a history of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and an anterior Q-wave myocardial infarction 3 years ago. He has had 2 admissions for heart failure in the past 6 months. He was last discharged 2 months ago on aspirin 325 mg daily, simvastatin 40 mg daily, enalapril 10 mg BID, metoprolol XL 100 mg ...

Diagnostic Value of High-Sensitivity Troponin T for Subclinical Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Patients with Sepsis

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2021
Background. Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) is common in sepsis. Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a useful emerging tool for evaluating the intrinsic left ventricular systolic function. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT)
