Open AccessMorphologically normalized left ventricular motion indicators from MRI feature tracking characterize myocardial infarction
We characterized motion attributes arising from LV spatio-temporal analysis of motion distributions in myocardial infarction. Time-varying 3D finite element shape models were obtained in 300 Controls and 300 p...

The TPS Direct Transport: A New Method for Transporting Deformations in the Size-and-Shape Space
Modern shape analysis allows the fine comparison of shape changes occurring between different objects. Very often the classic machineries of generalized Procrustes analysis and principal component analysis are...

Open AccessLeft Atrial trajectory impairment in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy disclosed by Geometric Morphometrics and Parallel Transport
The analysis of full Left Atrium (LA) deformation and whole LA deformational trajectory in time has been poorly investigated and, to the best of our knowledge, seldom discussed in patients with Hypertrophic Ca...

Ivabradine in Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock: A Preliminary Randomized Prospective Study
An elevated heart rate (HR) is an independent risk factor for mortality and morbidity in patients with acute heart failure (HF). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of ivabradine, a selective ...

Does cirrhotic cardiomyopathy exist? 50 years of uncertainty
Subtle abnormalities of cardiac structure or function are often identified in patients with liver cirrhosis and have been termed cirrhotic cardiomyopathy. However, in the absence of a precise definition, its d...

Effects of rosuvastatin on platelet inhibition by clopidogrel in cardiovascular patients
Statin interference has been suggested among the mechanisms of reduction of the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel. We thus sought to assess the influence of rosuvastatin on clopidogrel antiplatelet action in ...
