Pulmonary artery stiffness in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) and emphysema: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) COPD Study [PDF]
Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and particularly emphysema are characterized by stiffness of the aorta, due in part to accelerated elastin degradation in the lungs and aorta. Stiffness of the pulmonary arteries (PAs) may also be

Right ventricular systolic function in Nigerians with heart failure secondary to hypertensive heart disease [PDF]
Background: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction has been shown to be a major contributor to the adverse outcomes in subjects with heart failure. Few studies evaluating the right ventricle in heart failure subjectshave been carried out in Sub-Saharan ...

Aortic stenosis and right ventricular dysfunction [PDF]
Cardiac damage in severe aortic stenosis (AS) is not limited to the aortic valve and left ventricle, but is a systemic disease characterized by a significant alteration in cardiac structure and function. Therefore, a new classification of AS based on the degree of myocardial damage was proposed.
