Clinical Implications of Hepatic Hemodynamic Evaluation by Abdominal Ultrasonographic Imaging in Patients With Heart Failure

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background It has been reported that liver stiffness assessed by transient elastography are correlated with right atrial pressure, which is associated with worse outcome in patients with heart failure (HF).

Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients with Chronic Fibrosing Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common finding in patients with chronic fibrosing idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIP). Little is known about the response to pulmonary vasodilator therapy in this patient population.

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.

Transcatheter interatrial shunt device for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (REDUCE LAP-HF I [Reduce Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure]): A phase 2, randomized, sham-controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background -In non-randomized, open-label studies, a transcatheter interatrial shunt device (IASD, Corvia Medical) was associated with lower pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), less symptoms, and greater quality of life and exercise capacity in ...

Pulmonary hypertension: scientific and practical aspects of right heart catheterization (message three)

open access: yesInfusion & Chemotherapy
BACKGROUND. The development of right heart catheterization has provided doctors with the opportunity to diagnose pulmonary hypertension as a result of multiple diseases, as well as hemodynamic disorders in the small circle of blood circulation 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 ...

Comorbid Conditions in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Recognition and Management. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fibrosing interstitial pneumonia of unknown etiology, primarily affects older adults and leads to a progressive decline in lung function and quality of life.

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 ...

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

Causes of prehospital misinterpretations of ST elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: To determine the causes of software misinterpretation of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) compared to clinically identified STEMI to identify opportunities to improve prehospital STEMI identification.
