Clinical Phenotype and Genotype Associations With Improvement in Left Ventricular Function in Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Circulation: Heart Failure, 2018
Background: Improvement of left ventricular function (also called left ventricular reverse remodeling [LVRR]) is an important treatment goal in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and hypokinetic non-DCM (HNDC) and is prognostically favorable.

Factors influencing left ventricular thrombus resolution and its significance on clinical outcomes

ESC Heart Failure, 2023
Aims A left ventricular thrombus (LVT) is not uncommon in patients with impaired LV systolic function. However, the treatment strategy for LVT has not yet been fully established.

Left ventricular end‐diastolic pressure in evaluating left ventricular function [PDF]

Clinical Cardiology, 1981
AbstractThere are several factors that could affect the left ventricular end‐diastolic pressure. These include heart rate, preload, afterload, pericardial or pleural pressure, diastolic properties of the left ventricle, and the left ventricular inotropic state.

Left ventricular function: time-varying elastance and left ventricular aortic coupling

Critical Care, 2016
Many aspects of left ventricular function are explained by considering ventricular pressure–volume characteristics. Contractility is best measured by the slope, Emax, of the end-systolic pressure–volume relationship.
