The pathophysiology of diastolic heart failure
Whilst resting disturbances of both diastolic and long-axis systolic function are observed in patients with heart failure who have normal left ventricular ejection fraction, recent evidence suggests that dynamic disturbances in cardiac function occur during exercise. A paradoxical slowing of left ventricular active relaxation during exercise limits cardiac filling and therefore stroke volume an...
متن کاملThe Heart in Rheumatic, Autoimmune and Inflammatory Diseases: Pathophysiology, Clinical Aspects and Therapeutic Approaches, 1st edition.
It is well known that cardiovascular complications are prevalent in majority diseases treated by rheumatologists. The Heart in Rheumatic, Autoimmune and Inflammatory Diseases provides a comprehensive and detailed description of the numerous methods in which the cardiovascular system may be involved. Udi Nussinovitch of the Ramban Health Care Camus and Technion Institute of Technology and his 96...
متن کاملDiastolic Function in Heart Failure
Heart failure has reached epidemic proportions, and diastolic heart failure or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) constitutes about 50% of all heart failure admissions. Long-term prognosis of both reduced ejection fraction heart failure and HFpEF are similarly dismal. No pharmacologic agent has been developed that actually treats or repairs the physiologic deficit(s) respons...
متن کاملVenous Admixture in COPD: Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Approaches
Chronic obstructive and interstitial lung diseases impair pulmonary gas exchange leading to wasted ventilation (alveolar dead space) and wasted perfusion (venous admixture). These two fundamental types of abnormality represent opposite ends of the spectrum of ventilation-perfusion mismatch with V/Q ratios of infinity and zero. Treatment approaches that improve airway function, reduce air trappi...
متن کاملTourette's syndrome: clinical features, pathophysiology, and therapeutic approaches.
Tourette's syndrome (TS) is a disorder characterized by simple and complex motor tics, vocal tics, and frequently obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Its onset occurs before the age of 21. Typically, TS shows a waxing and waning course, but a chronification of the tics, even during later life, is often observed. TS mainly occurs in boys, and shows genetic heritability with differing penetrance. The ...
