Obese subjects show sex-specific differences in right ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]

, 2015
As right ventricular (RV) remodeling in obesity remains underinvestigated, and the impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on RV hypertrophy is unknown, we aimed to investigate whether (1) sex-specific patterns of RV remodeling exist in ...

Right ventricular volumes and function in thalassemia major patients in the absence of myocardial iron overload [PDF]

, 2010
Aim: We aimed to define reference ranges for right ventricular (RV) volumes, ejection fraction (EF) in thalassemia major patients (TM) without myocardial iron overload.Methods and results: RV volumes, EF and mass were measured in 80 TM patients who had ...

Analysis of desmoplakin in arrythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2010
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 71-79).It has been shown that all forms of cardiomyopathy, including the dilated, hypertrophic, restrictive, and right ventricular arrhythmogenic forms, are found in African populations.

Assessment of right ventricular function in patient with chronic renal failure on regular dialysis by echocardiography [PDF]

Zagazig University Medical Journal, 2021
Background:In recent years, the assessment of right ventricular function by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) has been established as a common approach to detect preclinical abnormalities of cardiac function and has also been proposed as a reliable predictor ...

Assessment of Right Ventricular Systolic Function with 3-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Isolated Mild Mitral Stenosis

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Background: In rheumatic severe mitral stenosis, right ventricular mechanics deteriorate with the increasing severity of mitral stenosis. Therefore, we aimed to investigate right ventricular mechanics in patients with mild mitral stenosis using 3 ...

Improved ventricular function during inhalation of PGI(2) aerosol partly relies on enhanced myocardial contractility [PDF]

, 2005
Inhaled prostacyclin (PGI(2)) aerosol induces selective pulmonary vasodilation. Further, it improves right ventricular ( RV) function, which may largely rely on pulmonary vasodilation, but also on enhanced myocardial contractility.

Evaluation of right ventricular function during liver transplantation with transesophageal echocardiography.

PLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundThe pathophysiology of advanced liver cirrhosis may induce alterations in the circulatory system that may be challenging for the anesthesiologist to manage intraoperatively, and perioperative cardiovascular events are associated with worse ...

Beta-blockers, left and right ventricular function, and in-vivo calcium influx in muscular dystrophy cardiomyopathy.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Beta-blockers are used to treat acquired heart failure in adults, though their role in early muscular dystrophy cardiomyopathy is unclear. We treated 2 different dystrophic mouse models which have an associated cardiomyopathy (mdx: model for Duchenne ...
