Angiography‐guided mid/high septal implantation of ventricular leads in patients with congenital heart disease

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Background Conduction system pacing prevents pacing‐induced cardiomyopathy, but it can be challenging to perform in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), and mid/high septal lead implantation is an alternative.

Ventricular androgenic-anabolic steroid-related remodeling: an immunohistochemical study [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Several fatal cases of bodybuilders, following a myocardial infarction after long exposure to androgenicanabolic steroids (AAS), are reported. In recent years, evidence has emerged of cases of heart failure related to AAS consumption, with no

Congenital Aneurysmal Tunnel of the Trabecular Muscular Interventricular Septum or a Partially Closed Ventricular Septal Defect? A Case Report with Review of Literature

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging
Isolated congenital aneurysm-like deformity of the muscular interventricular septum is rare and may be associated with other congenital heart defects, ventricular dysfunction, conduction disturbances, and chromosomal abnormalities. It may be a partial or

Paced QRS duration predicts left ventricular function in patients with permanent pacemakers – One-year follow-up study using equilibrium radionuclide angiography (ERNA)

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2015
Permanent pacing, being non physiological, often results in ventricular dysfunction over time. Narrower paced QRS duration from pacing the right ventricular outflow tract septum, might result in relatively preserved ventricular function over long term ...

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

The Fate of the Outflow Tract Septal Complex in Relation to the Classification of Ventricular Septal Defects

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2019
It is now established that the entity often described as an “aortopulmonary septal complex„ is better considered as an “outflow tract septal complex„.

Soluble ST2 levels and left ventricular structure and function in patients with metabolic syndrome [PDF]

, 2016
Background: A biomarker that is of great interest in relation to adverse cardiovascular events is soluble ST2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin family.

Deteriorated biomechanical properties of human hypertrophied septum in response to cardiomyocyte enlargement, overexpressed collagen, and disarrayed microstructures

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is often caused by genetic mutations, resulting in abnormal thickening of ventricular muscle, particularly the septum, and causing left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and inferior cardiac performance.

Atrial septal defect--echocardiographic assessment before and after surgical repair.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1979
Twenty-two patients with atrial septal defect (ostium secundum type and sinus venosus) were studied by echocardiography before and after surgery. The sizes of the various heart chambers - right and left ventricles, left atrium and aortic root - and the ...

Ventricular interdependence in critically ill patients: from physiology to bedside

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
The review focuses on the mechanism of ventricular interdependence, a frequently encountered phenomena, especially in critically ill patients. It is explained by the anatomy of the heart, with two ventricles sharing a common wall, the septum, and nested ...
