Echocardiographic Detection of Occult Diastolic Dysfunction in Pulmonary Hypertension After Fluid Challenge

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Identification of occult diastolic dysfunction often requires invasive right heart catheterization with provocative maneuvers such as fluid challenge. Non‐invasive predictors of occult diastolic dysfunction have not been identified.

Growth differentiation factor-15 levels in the blood around the pulmonary artery is associated with hospitalization for heart failure in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Despite no significant differences of growth differentiation factor-15 expressions in peripheral, right atrial, and right ventricular blood, in the pulmonary arterial blood, there was a significantly high level of growth differentiation factor-15 in ...

Tricuspid Regurgitation Velocity and Mean Pressure Gradient for the Prediction of Pulmonary Hypertension According to the New Hemodynamic Definition

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Background: The hemodynamic definition of PH has recently been revised with unchanged threshold of peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity (TRV). The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive accuracy of peak TRV for PH based on the new (>20 mmHg ...

First‐in‐human experience of preload regulation with percutaneous transluminal caval flow regulation in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction patients

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2022
Aims This study aims to investigate the acute haemodynamic effects of percutaneous transluminal flow regulation (PTCR®) with an inferior vena cava regulator balloon in heart failure patients. Preload reduction in heart failure has been achieved with high

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

Tricuspid regurgitation velocity versus right ventricular systolic pressure in the echocardiographic evaluation of pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2019
Background In consecutive patients who underwent right heart catheterization for pulmonary hypertension (PH) diagnosis, we evaluate ECS/ERS 2015 PH guidelines regarding the echocardiographic suggestions to proceed to PH diagnosis.

Distinct Systemic Sclerosis Phenotypes Related to Ethnicity: An Opportunity to Personalize Care?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective is to describe and compare demographic, clinical, and serological characteristics of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) according to ethnic background. Methods Participants enrolled in the Canadian Scleroderma Research Group cohort who self‐identified to a single ethnicity group were included.
