echocardiographic assessment of inappropriate left ventricular mass and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with diastolic dysfunction
background: early diagnosis of left ventricular mass (lvm) inappropriateness and left ventricular hypertrophy (lvh) can result in preventing diastolic left ventricular dysfunction and its related morbidity and mortality. this study was performed to determine if diastolic dysfunction is associated with lvh and inappropriate lvm. methods: one hundred and twenty five uncomplicated hypertensi...

Cardiovascular disease including left ventricular systolic dysfunction is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease. However, frequency of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with chronic kidney disease in local population is not known. All patients with chronic kidney disease between ages of 20-80 years who were not yet on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis a...
متن کاملMyocardial ischemia and right ventricular dysfunction in adult patients with sickle cell disease.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) have multi-organ manifestations of microvascular disease, though cardiac manifestations have been poorly characterized in vivo. This study sought to characterize myocardial characteristics in adult patients with SCD. DESIGN AND METHODS Twenty-two consecutive outpatients and 11 age-matched controls underwent magnetic resonance i...
متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
