Aortic annular plane systolic excursion in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine
Background Impairment of left ventricular (LV) longitudinal function is an early marker of systolic dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Aortic annular plane systolic excursion (AAPSE) is a measure of LV longitudinal function in people that ...

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

Systolic designs for Aitken's root finding method

open access: yes, 1992
1-D and 2-D systolic arrays for computing the roots of a transcendental function via table generating methods are considered. In particular we show how to derive systolic arrays systematically for a problem with an unbounded computation domain.

Meta-analysis of the effects of different exercise modes on cardiac function and peak oxygen uptake in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
BackgroundThe benefits of exercise for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular events have been reported in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the effects of exercise on cardiac structure and function require clarification.
