A critical appraisal of transpulmonary and diastolic pressure gradients
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) resulting from left heart failure is an increasingly recognized clinical entity. To distinguish isolated postcapillary PH from combined post- and precapillary PH, the use of a diastolic pressure gradient (DPG = diastolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure - Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure, dPAP - PAWP) has been advocated over the transpulmonary pressure gradient (TPG = mean...
متن کاملCharacterization of regional diastolic pressure gradients in the right ventricle.
Regional intraventricular pressure gradients exist in the left ventricle (LV) during both the early and late filling phases of diastole. These regional pressure gradients comprise a fundamental component of the mechanism of normal LV filling. To determine whether similar diastolic pressure gradients also occur in the right ventricle (RV), we measured right atrial (RA) and RV regional pressures ...
متن کاملA CRITICAL APPRAISAL OF HUMAN GROWTH STUDIES IN IRAN
Studies of human growth throughout Iran since 1966 have been surveyed critically. Only 32 papers and 15 research reports on this very crucial issue have been published or compiled so far, most of them on Tehran and Shiraz, which is negligible in comparison with American or European and even some African and Asian studies. Though measurements of height and weight naturally predominate, arm ...

A critical appraisal of diastolic time intervals as a measure of relaxation in left ventricular hypertrophy ABSTRACT Diastolic time intervals (DTIs) were calculated from simultaneous recordings of a phonocardiogram, apexcardiogram, and echocardiogram in 84 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyop-athy and 35 patients with hypertrophy secondary to chronic pressure and volume loading and were compar...
