Left ventricular diastolic function in congenital myotonic dystrophy.
OBJECTIVE Examination of left ventricular function and conduction abnormalities in myotonic dystrophy. DESIGN Twelve patients (median age, 13.7 years) with myotonic dystrophy had detailed electrocardiography and echocardiography performed. Echocardiographic parameters were compared with body surface area (BSA) matched median normal values. RESULTS Fractional shortening was slightly reduced ...
متن کاملNoninvasive assessment of left ventricular function in myotonic muscular dystrophy.
In order to assess left ventricular function, measurements of left ventricular internal dimension and its rate of change have been made by echocardiography in 7 patients with myotonic dystrophy and the three children of one of them, who were clinically normal but had abnormal muscle biopsies. Electrocardiograms and systolic time intervals were also recorded in all. Only one patient had signs of...
متن کاملCongenital myotonic dystrophy: respiratory function
The clinical features of 14 neonates with congenital myotonic dystrophy were retrospectively reviewed. These babies represent all the new cases of congenital myotonic dystrophy seen in this department since 1982. Twelve babies were referred because of either difficulties in diagnosis or difficulties in the management of their respiratory problems. Of the 14 babies, 13 had birth asphyxia, 11 wer...
متن کاملLEFT VENTRICULAR DIASTOLIC ABNORMALITIES IN β-THALASSEMIA MAJOR WITH NORMAL SYSTOLIC FUNCTION
In order to identify left ventricular diastolic function in patients with betathalassemia major and normal systolic function by noninvasive M-mode and Doppler echocardiography, an analytic study was designed in a university hospital in Sari. We have studied 44 patients (23 men and 21 women), mean age 15.48±2.16 (range 12 to 20) and 43 age and sex matched control subjects. Peak flow velocit...
متن کاملGenotype–Phenotype Correlations in Iranian Myotonic Dystrophy Type I Patients
Objectives: Myotonic Dystrophy type I (DM1) is a dominantly inherited disorder with a multisystemic pattern affecting skeletal muscle, heart, eye, endocrine and central nervous system. DM1 is associated with the expansion and instability of CTG repeat in the 3chr('39') untranslated region of the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) gene located on chromosome 19q13.3. The aim of this study w...
