Concentric left ventricular remodeling and aortic stiffness: a comparison of obesity and hypertension. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Increased thoracic ascending aortic stiffness is thought to contribute to concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and increased mortality, a pattern seen in hypertension.

Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]

, 1979
The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...

Early assessment of percutaneous coronary interventions for chronic total occlusions analyzed by novel echocardiographic techniques

Clinics, 2013
OBJECTIVE: Successful revascularization of chronic total occlusions has been associated with improved left ventricular systolic function, reduced anginal symptoms, increased exercise capacity, and increased survival. This study was conducted to determine

Left ventricular systolic and diastolic function in septic shock

Intensive Care Medicine, 1997
The identification of myocardial dysfunction in septic shock has not yet been fully elucidated. We therefore studied patients with persistently vasopressor-dependent septic shock, both with invasive haemodynamic monitoring and transoesophageal two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography (TEE).Prospective study.General ICU in University Hospital.All ...

Left ventricular ejection time: its relation to left ventricular systolic function and functional capacity in cardiomyopathic patients

Al-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal
Background and aim Left ventricular ejection time (LVET) was used to evaluate left ventricular function. Transthoracic echocardiogram was done, and parameters of LV systolic function by utilizing tissue Doppler imaging and two-dimensional strain were ...

The brain in heart failure [PDF]

, 2004
After atrial fibrillation, heart failure is the second most frequent cardiac association of stroke. Deteriorating left ventricular systolic function appears to increase the risk of cardioembolic stroke in heart failure.

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

PECULIAR FEATURES IN STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL HEART VALUES IN PERSONS WITH VARIOUS LEVELS OF BLOOD PRESSURE

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2002
113 healthy subjects with normal blood pressure and 26 patients with essential hypertension (BP 140-159/90-99 mm Hg) were inspected by echocardiography. All subjects were divided into 5 groups according to the blood pressure (BP) level.
