Altered microRNA and target gene expression related to Tetralogy of Fallot [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in guiding development and maintaining function of the human heart. Dysregulation of miRNAs has been linked to various congenital heart diseases including Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), which represents the most ...

MECHANISMS OF RIGHT VENTRICULAR FAILURE AND BIVENTRICULAR MECHANICAL CIRCULATORY SUPPORT
The paper presents a review of the problems of mechanical circulatory support with left ventricular bypass in total cardiac failure. Dysfunction of right ventricular defines the high mortality on left ventricular device.

Background Chronic heavy cigarette smoking can affect the right ventriclular function. The standard echocardiography may not show early right ventricular functional changes, and a more sensitive measure is needed. The aim of this work was to evaluate the

Evidence that conflict regarding size of haemodynamic response to interventricular delay optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy may arise from differences in how atrioventricular delay is kept constant. [PDF]
Aims: Whether adjusting interventricular (VV) delay changes haemodynamic efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is controversial, with conflicting results.

Evaluating Right Ventricular Function Using Longitudinal Displacement
Background and Objectives: The right ventricle has a complex, asymmetrical shape, making accurate imaging and functional assessment by echocardiography challenging.

How prostacyclin therapy improves right ventricular function in pulmonary arterial hypertension
Within recent years, right ventricular (RV) function has been recognised as a major determinant of outcome in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) [1, 2].

Brachycephalic dogs are usually affected by primary and secondary anatomical changes in the airways that contribute to the brachycephalic syndrome. Chronically, these changes contribute to an increase in pulmonary arterial pressure and right cardiac ...
