Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...
متن کاملCardiac magnetic resonance imaging for noninvasive assessment of cardiac allograft during the follow-up of patients after heart transplantation
Background Heart transplantation (HTX) is an established life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage heart failure. However, several injuries can compromise cardiac allograft function over the years after HTX, i.e. organ rejection, transplant vasculopathy or infections which can lead to myocardial fibrosis, cardiac remodeling and ventricular dysfunction. Non-invasive late gadolinium contr...
متن کاملGender differences in post-infarction hypertrophy in end-stage failing hearts.
OBJECTIVES We explored whether there are gender differences in cardiac remodeling and whether etiology influences organ and cellular remodeling in advanced heart failure (HF). BACKGROUND Several studies have shown a survival benefit for women compared to men with symptomatic HF. This observation may be related to gender differences in cardiac remodeling. METHODS We studied hearts from 100 p...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Characterization of Cardiac Adaptation and Myocardial Fibrosis in Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Systemic-To-Pulmonary Shunt.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction are strong predictors of morbidity and mortality among patients with congenital heart disease. Early detection of RV involvement may be useful in the management of these patients. We aimed to assess progressive cardiac adaptation and quantify myocardial extracellular volume in an experimental porcine model of PH becau...
