Response to pulmonary arterial hypertension drug therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and cardiovascular risk factors. [PDF]

, 2014
The age at diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are increasing. We sought to determine whether the response to drug therapy was influenced by CV risk factors in PAH patients. We studied

Right Ventricular Dysfunction After Thrombolysis in Patients with Right Ventricular Infarction [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2000
Right ventricular (RV) infarction is frequently associated with highest risk of death and major complications. Doppler echocardiography can be useful in the diagnosis of RV involvement. The goal of this study was to evaluate Doppler echocardiography features associated with RV involvement and a poor prognosis.Two-dimensional Doppler echocardiography ...
