Effect of canagliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) greatly increases the risks of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. In particular, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction that develops from the early stages of T2DM is an important factor in the onset and ...

Differentiation between mild and severe myocarditis using multiparametric cardiac magnetic resonance

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2023
The pathophysiology of myocarditis is associated with mild inflammation and may progress silently, or in severe cases such as fulminant myocarditis, may lead to sudden hemodynamic compromise.

Clinical Value of Complex Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Classification Based on Concentricity, Mass, and Volume Quantification

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Echocardiography is the most validated, non-invasive and used approach to assess left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Alternative methods, specifically magnetic resonance imaging, provide high cost and practical challenges in large scale clinical ...

Right ventricular diastolic dysfunction worsens clinical outcomes in Japanese patients with heart failure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2023
Background: Heart failure (HF) is a rapidly growing public health issue in super aging societies, such as Japan. Right HF is common in older patients. Therefore, the present study investigated the relationship between right ventricular diastolic function

Associations of Empagliflozin With Left Ventricular Volumes, Mass, and Function in Patients With Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Substudy of the Empire HF Randomized Clinical Trial.

open access: yesJAMA cardiology, 2021
Importance Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) improve outcomes in patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The association with cardiac remodeling has not been investigated.
