Myocardial Dysfunction in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Circulation, 2001
To The Editor: We note with interest Nagueh et al’s1 recent observation that the reduction of tissue Doppler (TD) velocities in mitral annulus excursion was highly sensitive and specific for the detection of individuals carrying hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)–causing mutations in HCM families, even in the prehypertrophic phase.

Low-Dose Propranolol Prevents Functional Decline in Catecholamine-Induced Acute Heart Failure in Rats

Toxics, 2022
Severe hyper-catecholaminergic states likely cause heart failure and cardiac fibrosis. While previous studies demonstrated the effects of beta-blockade in experimental models of single-catecholamine excess states, the detailed benefits of beta-blockade ...

Administration of losartan preserves cardiomyocyte size and prevents myocardial dysfunction in tail-suspended mice by inhibiting p47 phox phosphorylation, NADPH oxidase activation and MuRF1 expression

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2019
Background Spaceflight or microgravity conditions cause myocardial atrophy and dysfunction, contributing to post-flight orthostatic intolerance. However, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood and preventive approaches are limited. This

Myocardial dysfunction due to hypocalcemia

Indian Pediatrics, 2009
Hypocalcemia is a curable cause of myocardial dysfunction and clinical congestive cardiac failure, with only stray reports available in literature. We describe 15 infants presenting with severe left ventricular dysfunction, who were found to have hypocalcemia with or without hypomagnesemia.

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.
