Left ventricle endomyocardial fibrosis: a case report
BackgroundEndomyocardial fibrosis is a grim disease. It is the most common restrictive cardiomyopathy worldwide, but the exact etiology and...
-
The measurement of the left ventricle ejection fraction by a bedside FoCUS examination
The use of point-of-care ultrasound is rapidly increasing in medical practice. This study aims to evaluate the left ventricle systolic function by...
-
The prevalence of abnormal right ventricle speckle strain in the setting of acute myocarditis and preserved left ventricle function
BackgroundAcute myocarditis has a wide spectrum of clinical presentation, from subclinical disease to acute heart failure, and sudden cardiac death....

An acute increase in Left Atrial volume and left ventricular filling pressure during Adenosine administered myocardial hyperaemia: CMR First-Pass Perfusion Study
ObjectiveTo investigate whether left atrial (LA) volume and left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance...
-
Left atrial strain evaluation to assess left ventricle diastolic dysfunction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: a guide to clinical practice
Although frequently unrecognized, left atrium (LA) function plays a key role in global cardiac performance as it modulates left ventricle (LV)...

Left ventricle reverse remodeling in chronic aortic regurgitation patients with dilated ventricle after aortic valve replacement
BackgroundAortic valve replacement (AVR) for chronic aortic regurgitation (AR) with a severe dilated left ventricle and dysfunction leads to left...
-
Comparison of the stage-dependent mitochondrial changes in response to pressure overload between the diseased right and left ventricle in the rat
The right ventricle (RV) differs developmentally, anatomically and functionally from the left ventricle (LV). Therefore, characteristics of LV...

Changes in blood flow vortices inside the left ventricle in COVID-19 patients with intraventricular clot despite a normal coronary and myocardial motion
PurposeOur clinical observations showed clot formations in different regions of the left ventricle of the heart in some COVID-19 patients with normal...

Correlation of ventricle epicardial fat volume and triglyceride-glucose index in patients with chronic heart failure
To explore the association of ventricle epicardial fat volume (EFV) calculated by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and the insulin resistance...
-
Effect of volume infusion on left atrial strain in acute circulatory failure
BackgroundLeft atrial strain (LAS) is a measure of atrial wall deformation during cardiac cycle and reflects atrial contribution to cardiovascular...
-
The D-SPECT SH reconstruction protocol: improved quantification of small left ventricle volumes
BackgroundDue to spatial resolution limitations, conventional NaI-SPECT typically overestimates the left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) in...
