The presence of moderate or severe diastolic dysfunction in patients with preserved systolic function independently predicted mortality, a retrospective study determined. After propensity matching to ...
One of the most severe target organ damages of hypertension is left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which is a strong predictor of adverse prognosis. 6 A spectrum of LV geometric adaptations may occur ...
What are the grades of diastolic dysfunction measured by echocardiography, and what are the clinical ramifications of each? Diastolic dysfunction occurs when the left ventricular myocardium is ...
The diagnosis and treatment of isolated diastolic failure is often a challenge, since the symptoms are so similar to systolic heart failure. It is important to distinguish between diastolic heart ...
This Journal feature begins with a case vignette highlighting a common clinical problem. Evidence supporting various strategies is then presented, followed by a review of formal guidelines, when they ...
A recent study published in BMC Public Health investigated the associations between abnormal left ventricular diastolic function (ALVDF) and ambient air pollution. Study: Air pollution is associated ...
Cardiomyopathy is the leading cause of mortality in patients with DMD. Compared with their healthy counterparts, patients with DMD — including those with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction ...
