Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Mitral Valve Repair for Patients with Mitral Valve Prolapse
Prosthetic valve replacement has mainly been performed on patients with mitral regurgitation. In such cases, prosthetic valve related complications, such as thromboembolism, bleeding, prosthetic valve infection, and structural valve deterioration, are unavoidable.

Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Analysis of Echocardiography Images Using Grid Independent Technique for Patients with Mitral Valve Problems (MVP) [PDF]
With echocardiography images collected by a transthoracic transducer, can be used to evaluate the mitral valve problems. Incorrect surgical of mitral valves failure will cause death and the surgical repair can be improved by knowing the correlations ...
