Impact of Diabetes on Postinfarction Heart Failure and Left Ventricular Remodeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diabetes mellitus, the metabolic syndrome, and the underlying insulin resistance are increasingly associated with diastolic dysfunction and reduced stress tolerance. The poor prognosis associated with heart failure in patients with diabetes after myocardial infarction is likely attributable to many factors, important among which is the metabolic impact from insulin resistance and hyperglycemia on the regulation of microvascular perfusion and energy generation in the cardiac myocyte. This review summarizes epidemiologic, pathophysiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic data related to diabetes and heart failure in acute myocardial infarction and discusses novel perceptions and strategies that hold promise for the future and deserve further investigation.

Nicotine-modified postinfarction left ventricular remodeling.
Cigarette smoking has been noted to impair wound healing in tissues such as skin, bone, and gut. This study was designed to examine whether nicotine adversely affects postinfarction cardiac wound healing and remodeling in an experimental model of myocardial infarction. For this purpose, two groups of rats were studied. The control group received a simple bandage, and the nicotine group had a se...
متن کاملHeart failure and left ventricular remodeling after reperfused acute myocardial infarction in patients with hypertension.
In the thrombolytic era, hypertension has been shown to adversely affect the development of heart failure after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We sought to examine the relation between antecedent hypertension and heart failure after mechanical reperfusion and to test the impact of postinfarction left ventricular remodeling on heart failure in hypertensive patients. A series of 953 patients ...

While mortality from overt ischaemic heart disease is falling, that from heart failure is increasing and reaching epidemic proportions. Although an aging population is partly responsible for this trend, recent observations showing persistently high mortality and morbidity rates following myocardial infarction further compounds the issue. An understanding of the pathophysiological processes lead...

Right ventricle apical pacing causes dyssynchronous left ventricle contraction. Dyssynchrony leads to ventricular remodeling and an overt heart failure eventually. Experimental animal studies lend the evidence that dyssynchronous contraction is accompanied by tremendous derangement in extracellular compartment with altered collagen content, activity and expression of matrix metalloproteinases a...
