Assessment of Subclinical Myocardial Changes in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Case-Control Study Using Speckle Tracking Echocardiography
Background: Considering the association between cardiac abnormalities and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between biopsy-proven NAFLD and functional echocardiographic parameters, including left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) in asymptomatic individuals. Methods: Thirty asymptomatic patients with liver biopsy-prov...
متن کاملPhysiological basis in the assessment of myocardial mechanics using speckle-tracking echocardiography 2D. Part II
In this paper, the authors attempt to concisely present the anatomical and pathophysiological bases as well as the principles for echocardiographic evaluation of mechanical aspects of cardiac function based on speckle tracking method. This technique uses a phenomenon involving the formation of characteristic image units, referred to as speckles or acoustic markers, which are stable during cardi...
متن کاملAssessment of fetal myocardial deformation using speckle tracking techniques.
OBJECTIVE To report the current status of speckle tracking techniques in evaluation of fetal myocardial deformation. METHODS A variety of non-Doppler ultrasound methods are available using offline analysis of standard four-chamber and short axis views of the heart. RESULTS Most reports have used techniques developed for the measurement of strain and strain rate in the adult heart and produc...
متن کاملMyocardial ischemic memory imaging with molecular echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Diagnosing acute coronary syndrome in patients presenting with chest discomfort is a challenge. Because acute myocardial ischemia/reperfusion is associated with endothelial upregulation of leukocyte adhesion molecules, which persist even after ischemia has resolved, we hypothesized that microbubbles designed to adhere to endothelial selectins would permit echocardiographic identifica...
متن کاملOutcome prediction in sepsis: Speckle tracking echocardiography based assessment of myocardial function
INTRODUCTION Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is a relatively novel and sensitive method for assessing ventricular function and may unmask myocardial dysfunction not appreciated with conventional echocardiography. The association of ventricular dysfunction and prognosis in sepsis is unclear. We sought to evaluate frequency and prognostic value of biventricular function, assessed by STE i...
