Assessment of Mitral Valve Resistance Index by Echocardiography in Mitral Stenosis Before and After Balloon Mitral Valvotomy and Its Hemodynamic Implications [PDF]

, 2013
INTRODUCTION: Valvular stenosis is common cardiac disease with greater morbidity and mortality especially in developing countries like India. Echocardiography is considered as an important and simple tool to evaluate valve stenosis .Almost all cases of ...

Plasma Cardiac Troponin I Concentration and Cardiac Death in Cats with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: The use of cardiac biomarkers to assist in the diagnosis of occult and symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats has been established. There is limited data describing their prognostic utility in cats with HCM.

Circulating growth differentiation factor‐15 levels are associated with early echocardiographic signs of diastolic function impairment in the STANISLAS cohort: A 20‐year follow‐up study

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Summary of the study design and key findings. The (+) and (−) signs mean that the variable has a positive or a negative association with growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF‐15) levels in the fully adjusted model (age, gender, current smoker, body mass index, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide ...

Cardioprotective effects of semaglutide on isolated human ventricular myocardium

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Semaglutide reduces late sodium current (INa) and diastolic calcium (Ca) sparks in human cardiomyocytes from aortic stenosis (AS) and end‐stage heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, thereby increasing Ca transients. Improved Ca storage may underly the enhanced contractility of human cardiomyocytes upon semaglutide.

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]

, 2020
The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.

An Incidental Diagnosis of Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis and Secundum Atrial Septal Defect (Lutembacher’s Syndrome) in a Young Woman

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2019
Lutembacher’s syndrome is a rare cardiovascular defect comprising of mitral stenosis and atrial septal defect. A combination of acquired mitral stenosis and congenital atrial septal defect is the most well-recognized pattern. As atrial septal defect acts
