Bioenergetic Consequences of Left Ventricular Remodeling

Circulation, 1995
Background Left ventricular (LV) remodeling is associated with LV dysfunction and decrease of coronary flow reserve. The underlying mechanisms responsible for these alterations are unclear. Changes in myocardial high-energy phosphate levels may be associated with these alterations.

Ventricular remodeling: Hype or hope?

Nature Medicine, 1996
An unconventional operation for treating end-stage heart failure may prove beneficial for some patients waiting for heart transplants.

Surgical ventricular remodeling

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2017
The surgical management of patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, especially those with left ventricular ejection fractions less than 20% has historically been controversial. The original trials of surgical revascularization versus medical therapy intentionally excluded those patients with an ejection fraction less than 35%. The significant advances in

Ventricular remodeling in coronary artery disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1997
Analyzing 16 recent (1993 to 1997) references devoted to left ventricular aneurysm or wall motion abnormality after myocardial infarct, it appears that 1) cardiologists are on their way to detecting earlier the bad evolution of left ventricular geometry after myocardial infarct, 2) a great number of cardiac surgeons are using the technique of left ...

Role of Apoptosis in Adverse Ventricular Remodeling

Heart Failure Clinics, 2012
Apoptosis is a key feature in the progression of heart disease. Stage B heart failure is characterized by a structurally abnormal heart in which the remodeled myocardium is prone to apoptosis. Elimination of the proapoptotic stimuli or inhibition of the apoptotic cascade could presumably rescue the myocardium and halt the progression of adverse ...

[Left ventricular remodelling].

Cardiologia (Rome, Italy), 1991
An acute myocardial infarction, particularly one that is large and transmural, can produce expansion and alterations in the topography of both the infarcted and non-infarcted regions or the ventricle. This remodelling can importantly affect the function of the ventricle and the prognosis. Side-to-side slippage of myocytes in the myocardium occurring in

Myocyte cell death and ventricular remodeling

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 1997
The recognition that cell death in the myocardium is not only necrotic in nature but is also mediated by activation of the suicide program of myocytes has raised several questions concerning the magnitude of this phenomenon, and whether these two distinct forms of cell death are disease-dependent or coexist in the pathologic heart.

Left Ventricular Remodelling in Aortic Stenosis

Canadian Journal of Cardiology, 2014
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a progressive condition associated with high mortality if not treated. The hemodynamic effects of AS have serious implications for the left ventricle. In this review, we describe the responses of the left ventricle to AS by highlighting the process of adaptive remodelling, which begins as a beneficial compensatory mechanism but ...

Global structural ventricular remodeling: Summation

Journal of Cardiac Failure, 2002
That the heart enlarges in patients with heart disease has long been known, but the structural details of this enlargement and the mechanism and rationale of this enlargement have only become apparent in recent years. As noted by Marc Pfeffer in his historical perspective, concepts were confused until quite recently.

Ventricular remodeling following myocardial infarction

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1992
Ventricular remodeling denotes structural changes that occur in ventricular chamber size, wall thickness, and composition following myocardial damage. Following acute coronary occlusion, there are various factors to consider at different times that may contribute to subsequent ventricular dilation.
