ABSTRACT Cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality in sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients. While extensive data have identified diastolic dysfunction (DD) to increase morbidity and mortality, the unique hemodynamic conditions inherent to SCA challenge the current recommendations to assess diastolic function. Thus, there is an urgent

Techniques for Identification of Left Ventricular Asynchrony for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Heart Failure [PDF]
The most recent treatment option of medically refractory heart failure includes cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by biventricular pacing in selected patients in NYHA functional class III or IV heart failure. The widely used marker to indicate left

Background: The impact of dominant ventricular morphology on Fontan patient outcomes remain controversial. This study evaluates long-term results of right ventricle (RV) dominance versus left ventricle (LV) dominance in Fontan circulation without ...

The figure illustrates the study design and key findings related to right ventricular myocardial work (RVMW) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients with and without pulmonary hypertension (PH). Patients were stratified into two groups: those with PH (n = 53) and those without PH (n = 49), as determined by right heart ...

Pattern of Cardiovascular Diseases Among Elderly Patients Admitted in Medical Wards at Muhimbili National Hospital Dar es salaam Tanzania [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease is the most frequent cause of death in persons over the age 50 years and most importantly it is responsible for considerable morbidity and large burden of disability in the community. Cardiovascular diseases are an increasing cause

ABSTRACT Identifying noninvasive measures to assess intravascular volume status and risk stratify patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is needed. We assessed the predictive value of estimated plasma volume status (ePVS) using the Strauss‐derived Duarte formula in PH–CKD patients.

We report a rare case of CTEPH presenting with an aseptic cavitary pulmonary infarction, an unusual manifestation typically mimicking infection or malignancy. This case underscores the need for genetic screening in unexplained CTEPH, as thrombophilia workup in our case revealed a heterozygous Factor V Leiden mutation (an uncommon congenital risk factor

Diastolic And Systolic Right Ventricular Dysfunction Precedes Left Ventricular Dysfunction In Patients Paced From Right Ventricular Apex [PDF]
Background: Cardiac dysfunction after right ventricular (RV) apical pacing is well known but its extent, time frame of appearance and individual effect on left ventricular (LV), RV systolic and diastolic parameters has not evaluated in a systematic ...

Abstract Background and Purpose The JAK–STAT signalling pathway has been extensively spotlighted as a therapeutic target for various diseases. This study assessed the inhibitory effects of a novel small molecule, IN‐115314, on JAK–STAT pathway. Experimental Approach The IC50 values of IN‐115314 for JAK1–pSTAT3 and JAK2–pSTAT5 were determined in canine ...
