Asymptomatic Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Heart Failure Reviews, 1997Increasingly, it is recognized that significant ventricular dysfunction can exist in the absence of symptoms for an extended period of time in patients with cardiovascular disease. Recent multicenter trials have demonstrated that therapy during the asymptomatic phase can reduce progression to symptomatic heart failure and mortality.

Left Ventricular Dysfunction and Chemotherapeutic Agents
Current Cardiology Reports, 2018We aim to summarize the effect of cancer therapy-related cardiotoxicity on the development of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.We discuss commonly used cancer therapeutics that have the potential for both acute and delayed cardiotoxicity. LV dysfunction from cancer therapies may be found by routine cardiac imaging prior to clinical manifestations of ...

Recovery From Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Cardiology in Review, 2022The treatment of heart failure is an evolving field of cardiology, with increasingly available therapeutics and significant disease burden. With the effective treatments available, we see a substantial patient population whose once reduced ejection fraction (EF) has normalized.

Echocardiography and Reversible Left Ventricular Dysfunction
The American Journal of Medicine, 2006Transient apical ballooning is increasingly recognized in acutely ill, hospitalized patients. This article reviews clinical aspects of the syndrome, its recognition by echocardiography, and will review other disorders whose recognition is due primarily to the availability of echocardiography.Systematic review of the medical literature concerning the ...

Obesity and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction
International Journal of Cardiology, 1995To assess the influence of obesity on left ventricular function, 20 obese women (mean body mass index (BMI) 33.8 +/- 3.1 kg/m2 and mean age 31.1 +/- 2.4 years) without evidence of heart disease were evaluated by echocardiography. Obese subjects had greater left ventricular mass index (103 +/- 22 g/m2, 76 +/- 18 g/m2; P < 0.0001) and augmented ...

Treatment of asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008Patients with abnormalities of left ventricular (LV) systolic or diastolic function may have no symptoms, especially in the early stages. These patients are not uncommon in the community, and the prevalence of this condition increases in the presence of risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and coronary artery disease. Patients with asymptomatic

Propylhexedrine-Induced Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1982Excerpt Amphetamine abuse has previously been implicated in the pathogenesis of congenital heart disease (1), necrotizing vasculitis (2), intracranial hemorrhage (3), pulmonary fibrosis, and cor pu...

Molecular Genetics of Left Ventricular Dysfunction
Current Molecular Medicine, 2001The left ventricle (LV) plays a central role in the maintenance of health of children and adults due to its role as the major pump of the heart. In cases of LV dysfunction, a significant percentage of affected individuals develop signs and symptoms of congestive heart failure (CHF), leading to the need for therapeutic intervention.

Cardiotoxicity: Left Ventricular Dysfunction
2017The left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), from asymptomatic reduction of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) up to heart failure (HF), is probably the most studied and feared late effect of anticancer therapy because it is often unpredictable and because it has a poor prognosis.

Severe left ventricular dysfunction in infants with ventricular preexcitation [PDF]
Heart Rhythm, 2008 e t ntroduction he role of dyssynchrony in the pathogenesis of heart failre has been the subject of numerous studies on cardiac esynchronization therapy. Detrimental cardiac remodeling as been described in the setting of isolated left bundle ranch block or its induction by right ventricular apical acing, further underpinning the impact of dyssynchrony ...
