Predictive significance of residual ischemia proved by dobutamine stress: Echocardiography test in patients early after the first uncomplicated myocardial infarction [PDF]
Background. To evaluate the long-term prognostic value of dobutamine stress-echocardiography (ECG) test for new coronary events (new episodes of angina pectoris, cardiac-related deaths, and reinfarctions) early after the first uncomplicated myocardial ...

Safety and feasibility of dopamine‐atropine stress echocardiography [PDF]
Background Dobutamine-atropine stress echocardiography (DSE) has lower sensitivity in patients with advanced liver disease (ALD) due to vasodilation. Hypothesis Dopamine-atropine stress echocardiography (DopSE) may be an alternative to DSE in ALD ...

Induced myocardial ischemia in candidates to liver transplantation without evidence of heart disease
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with perioperative liver transplantation (LT) mortality. In absence of a defined risk algorithm, we aimed to test whether stress echocardiography and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA ...
