Baseline Longitudinal Strain Predicts Recovery of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Hospitalized Patients With Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Heart failure (HF) with “recovered” ejection fraction (HFrecEF) is an emerging phenotype, but no tools exist to predict ejection fraction (EF) recovery in acute HF.

Value of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography Combined with Stress Echocardiography in Predicting Surgical Outcome of Severe Aortic Regurgitation with Markedly Reduced Left Ventricular Function

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background: Predicting outcomes of surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with chronic severe aortic regurgitation (AR) and markedly reduced left ventricular (LV) function remains a challenge.

Job strain in relation to body mass index: pooled analysis of 160,000 adults from 13 cohort studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background. Evidence of an association between job strain and obesity is mixed, mostly limited to small-scale studies, and does not distinguish between categories of underweight or obesity sub-classes. Objectives.

Subclinical dysfunction of remote myocardium is related to high NT-proBNP and affects global contractility at follow-up, independently of infarct area

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundIn ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), predictors of subclinical dysfunction of remote myocardium are unknown. We prospectively aimed at identifying clinical and biochemical correlates of remote subclinical dysfunction and its ...

Artificial Neural Network for Vertical Displacement Prediction of a Bridge from Strains (Part 2): Optimization of Strain-Measurement Points by a Genetic Algorithm under Dynamic Loading

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Bridge displacements are one of the most important physical values in evaluating the health of bridges. However, the direct measurement of bridge displacements is not easy due to various factors, such as installation location and cost.

Speckle-tracking echocardiography in the early diagnosis of heart failure after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2021
Aim. To study the potential of global strain analysis using two-dimensional speckletracking echocardiography to predict the heart failure (HF) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) based on the 6-month follow-up after ...
