Coronary Artery Disease and Intradialytic Myocardial Ischemia in Hemodialysis: An Exploratory Study Using Intradialytic Imaging [PDF]

Kidney Medicine
Rationale & Objective: Recurrent segmental myocardial ischemia (myocardial stunning) is a well-recognized consequence of hemodialysis leading to fixed contractile deficits and increased morbidity and cardiac mortality.

Quantification of Cardiac Kinetic Energy and Its Changes During Transmural Myocardial Infarction Assessed by Multi-Dimensional Seismocardiography

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Seismocardiography (SCG) records cardiac and blood-induced motions transmitted to the chest surface as vibratory phenomena. Evidences demonstrate that acute myocardial ischemia (AMI) profoundly affects the SCG signals.

Blunting of Colon Contractions in Diabetics with Gastroparesis Quantified by Wireless Motility Capsule Methods. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Generalized gut transit abnormalities are observed in some diabetics with gastroparesis. Relations of gastric emptying abnormalities to colon contractile dysfunction are poorly characterized.

Aerobic Training in Patients with Congenital Myopathy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
INTRODUCTION:Congenital myopathies (CM) often affect contractile proteins of the sarcomere, which could render patients susceptible to exercise-induced muscle damage. We investigated if exercise is safe and beneficial in patients with CM.

Non-invasive intradialytic percutaneous perfusion monitoring: a view to the heart through the skin

Frontiers in Nephrology, 2023
IntroductionThe life-sustaining treatment of hemodialysis (HD) induces recurrent and cumulative systemic circulatory stress resulting in cardiovascular injury.

Induction of PGC-1α expression can be detected in blood samples of patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Following acute myocardial infarction (MI), cardiomyocyte survival depends on its mitochondrial oxidative capacity. Cell death is normally followed by activation of the immune system.

The new clinical standard of integrated quadruple stress echocardiography with ABCD protocol

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2018
Background The detection of regional wall motion abnormalities is the cornerstone of stress echocardiography. Today, stress echo shows increasing trends of utilization due to growing concerns for radiation risk, higher cost and stronger environmental ...

Alterações contráteis segmentares e sua associação com arritmias ventriculares complexas, em pacientes chagásicos com eletrocardiograma normal ou borderline Regional left ventricular dysfunction and its association with complex ventricular arrhythmia, in chagasic patients with normal or borderline electrocardiogram

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2010
INTRODUÇÃO: Morte súbita representa a principal causa de óbito em chagásicos. Eventos fatais em pacientes saudáveis, com anormalidades contráteis, foram documentados.

Ecocardiografia de sobrecarga no enfarte do miocárdio.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1998
For patients with recent myocardial infarction, the main determinants of prognosis are: extent of transmural necrosis, state of the infarct-related artery and the presence and extent of myocardium at risk. The basic principle underlying the use of stress

Prognostic Implications of Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Dyssynchrony

Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2016
Normal regional left ventricular (LV) mechanical contraction is synchronous, resulting in efficient ejection. Abnormalities in electrical activation or myocardial diseases may affect the timing of regional contraction, resulting in discoordinated or ...
