The value of myocardial perfusion imaging in differentiating between idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy from the ischemic form [Persian]

Introduction: Differentiating between ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM) is important as coronary revascularization can improve prognosis in the ischemic subgroup. Due to inherent problems of coronary angiography in patients with depressed ejection fraction (EF) introducing a noninvasive tool to diagnose those who will benefit from angiography seems...

Comparative assessment of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, nitric oxide and echocardiography for diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy in dogs

The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro BNP) and nitric oxide (NO) with echocardiography (gold standard test) in diagnosis of canine cardiomyopathy. Out of 374 cases, 82 cases showing cardiovascular abnormalities including 16 cases of cardiomyopathy were further selected for standardization of biomarkers. Significant (P

Evaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics

Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria.  Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...

Trimetazidine, a metabolic modulator, has cardiac and extracardiac benefits in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.

BACKGROUND The anti-ischemic agent trimetazidine improves ejection fraction in heart failure that is hypothetically linked to inhibitory effects on cardiac free fatty acid (FFA) oxidation. However, FFA oxidation remains unmeasured in humans. We investigated the effects of trimetazidine on cardiac perfusion, efficiency of work, and FFA oxidation in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. METHODS AN...

The kinetic energies of left ventricular 4D flow components correlate with established markers of prognosis and represent novel imaging biomarkers in both ischaemic and dilated cardiomyopathy

Background Despite different aetiology of myocardial damage in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and ischaemic cardiomyopathy (IHD), cardiac remodelling occurs in both, culminating in the end result of a dilated left ventricle with impaired function. Cardiac remodelling is a complex process in which numerous cellular, mechanical and flow processes become deranged. Insights into changes of multidimen...

Potential value of T1 mapping in cardiac MR assessment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy patients: preliminary results

Background Myocardial fibrosis causes 1) increased stiffness and induces pathological signaling in cardiomyocytes resulting in progressive cardiac failure, 2)impairs mechanoelectric coupling of cardiomyocytes and increases the risk of arrhythmias. T1 mapping allow to quantify the total amount of myocardial extracellular volume and to subsequently define the amount of myocardial fibrosis. Quanti...
