conclusions patients faced with isolated left ventricular apical hypoplasia should be monitored by echocardiography because of this disease’s possible progressive trend to life-threatening consequences. introduction isolated left ventricular apical hypoplasia is an unusual type of cardiomyopathy that presents with different clinical manifestations according to the age of the disease, ranging fr...

conclusions it seems that usage of ecg rating systems such as sss at the time of admission, in addition to showing the extent of the conflict in the myocardium, can provide valuable information about prognosis, severity of myocardial damage and ventricular function in hospitalized patients. background ischemic heart disease is among the most important causes of mortality. therefore, classificat...

Lithium overdoses causing cardiotoxicity are uncommon and electrocardiographic changes suggesting myocardial ischemia are rare. However, some authors have specifically reported the occurrence of ischemic electrocardiography changes due to a lithium overdose. This paper describes a case where electrocardiography changes mimic inferior myocardial infarction during the course of chronic lithium tr...

Introduction Dual atrioventricular nodal physiology (DAVNP) is present in 10% to 35% of the general population and is known to regress with aging. It usually manifests as a critical AH jump on electrophysiologic testing or on surface electrocardiography as a change in PR interval with subsequent tachycardia. Preferential choice of pathway engagement (slow vs fast) is dependent upon refractory p...

background: fetal electrocardiography is a developing field that provides valuable information on the fetal health during pregnancy. by early diagnosis and treatment of fetal heart problems, more survival chance is given to the infant. objective: here, we extract fetal ecg from maternal abdominal recordings and detect r-peaks in order to recognize fetal heart rate. on the next step, we find a b...

The exercise-electrocardiography test shows limited feasibility and diagnostic accuracy for the noninvasive detection of coronary artery disease in hypertensive patients. Recently, the dipyridamole-echocardiography test (two-dimensional echocardiographic monitoring with dipyridamole infusion, up to 0.84 mg/kg over 10 minutes) has been proposed as an exercise-independent method for the diagnosis...

background: considering the effect of socioeconomic factors on the appearance of chronic diseases, and also the importance of this issue for policy makers of health care services, we tried to assess the role socioeconomic factors have in diabetes complications. this survey may have some benefits in prevention and control of diabetes.   methods: this cross-sectional study was conducted on 384 di...

background: diabetes is a common disease that can lead to metabolic abnormalities and chronic complications. today, the positive role of physical activity and exercise, especially walking in health human society and has been approved in prevention and control many complications including diabetes. today, the positive role of physical activities and exercise , especially hi wal king in the healt...
