The Impact of Myocardial Infarction on Ventricular Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Eighty one patients were studied using radionuclide ventriculography to study the effects of myocardial infarction (36 anterior and 45 inferior) on ventricular function during the early and convalescent phases.

Claustrum Volume Is Reduced in Multiple Sclerosis and Predicts Disability

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The claustrum is a small, thin structure of predominantly gray matter with broad connectivity and enigmatic function. Little is known regarding the impact of claustrum pathology in multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods This study assessed whether claustrum volume was reduced in MS and whether reductions were associated with specific ...

Assessment of Right Ventricle Function in Patients with Mitral Repair: Case Series

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia
Objectives: We aim to assess right ventricular function in patients undergoing mitral valve repair using trans-esophageal echocardiography, focusing on the predictive value of right ventricular longitudinal strain compared to other echocardiographic ...

Emerging hemodynamic signatures of the right heart (Third International Right Heart Failure Summit, part 2) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Despite the importance of preserved right ventricular structure and function with respect to outcome across the spectrum of lung, cardiac, and pulmonary vascular diseases, only recently have organized efforts developed to consider the pulmonary vascular ...

Whole Heart Anatomical Refinement from CCTA using Extrapolation and Parcellation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) provides detailed an-atomical information on all chambers of the heart. Existing segmentation tools can label the gross anatomy, but addition of application-specific labels can require detailed and often manual refinement.

Straining With the Ventricular Assist Device and Right Ventricular Function

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
We read with great interest the paper by Grant et al. ([1][1]) in which they provide an analysis to support the use of strain imaging as a unique echocardiographic measure to predict right ventricular (RV) failure in patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement.

Estradiol improves right ventricular function in rats with severe angioproliferative pulmonary hypertension: effects of endogenous and exogenous sex hormones.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Lung cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2015
Estrogens are disease modifiers in PAH. Even though female patients exhibit better right ventricular (RV) function than men, estrogen effects on RV function (a major determinant of survival in PAH) are incompletely characterized.
