Subclinical cardiac abnormalities and physical function in asymptomatic elderly
Methods In this community-based cohort of 28 patients free of known cardiac disease (mean age 73.8 ± 4) with preserved LV ejection fraction (mean LVEF 69.8 ± 6.4) and cardiac index (mean 3.1 ± 0.57), we assessed cardiac remodelling by cardiac MRI (concentricity (mass/ end-diastolic volume) and LV function by resting tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) performed at the septal and lateral mitral annulus...
متن کاملAssociations between kidney function and subclinical cardiac abnormalities in CKD.
Heart failure is a common consequence of CKD, and it portends high risk for mortality. However, among patients without known heart failure, the associations of different stages of estimated GFR (eGFR) with changes in cardiac structure and function are not well described. Here, we performed a cross-sectional analysis to study these associations among 3487 participants of the Chronic Renal Insuff...

متن کاملSubclinical Atherosclerosis, Cardiac and Kidney Function, Heart Failure, and Dementia in the Very Elderly
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) and dementia are major causes of disability and death among older individuals. Risk factors and biomarkers of HF may be determinants of dementia in the elderly. We evaluated the relationship between biomarkers of cardiovascular disease and HF and risk of dementia and death. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) higher levels of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T, N-te...
