چکیده
The Attending Physician’s Statement (APS) confirms the history above. It also indicates that she has a normal build and a regular pulse. Blood Pressure is 120/80. A midsystolic click and 2/6 late systolic murmur are audible at the apex. 1991 chest x-ray is reported as normal. 1991 ECG reveals sinus rhythm with minor ST-T wave changes in leads 2, 3 and AVF. A 1990 echocardiogram report discloses normal left atrial and left ventricular dimensions with no evidence of LVH. Midsystolic prolapse of the posterior leaflet of the mitral valve is present with Doppler evidence of trivial mitral regurgitation.

متن کاملE VALUATION OF ADENYLATE CYCLASE ACTIVITY IN MITRAL VALVE PROLAPSE
The term mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is used for a particular subset of patients with hyperadrenergic dysautonomia. It occurs when part of a leaflet or both leaflets of the mitral valve extend above the plane of the atrioventricular junction during ventricular systole. The adenylate cyclase activity in MVP dys-autonomia was studied by extraction of enzyme from the erythrocytes from 62 norma...
