The Electrocardiogram in Population StudiesOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 21 Số 6 - Trang 1160-1175 - 1960
Henry Blackburn, Ancel Keys, Ernst Simonson, Pentti M. Rautaharju, Sven Punsar
Information now available about the prevalence and incidence of coronary heart disease is seriously deficient because of the lack of standardized and objective methods of collection, tabulation, interpretation, and reporting of survey data. Chief reliance in the
objective
diagnosis of coronary heart disease rests on the electr...... hiện toàn bộ

Background
The role of hormonal and cytokine abnormalities in the development of cardiac cachexia remains obscure.
Methods and Results
Healthy control subjects (n=16) and patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), classified clinically as cachectic (...... hiện toàn bộ

Randomized Study on Simple Versus Complex Stenting of Coronary Artery Bifurcation LesionsOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 114 Số 18 - Trang 1955-1961 - 2006
Terje K. Steigen, Michael Mæng, Rune Wiseth, Andrejs Ērglis, Indulis Kumsārs, Inga Narbute, Pål Gunnes, Jan Mannsverk, Oliver Meyerdierks, Svein Rotevatn, Matti Niemelä, Kari Kervinen, Jan Skov Jensen, Anders Galløe, Kjell Nikus, Saila Vikman, Jan Ravkilde, Stefan James, Jens Aarøe, Antti Ylitalo, Steffen Helqvist, Iwar Sjögren, Per Thayssen, Kari Virtanen, Mikko Puhakka, Juhani Airaksinen, Jens Flensted Lassen, Leif Thuesen
Background—
The optimal stenting strategy in coronary artery bifurcation lesions is unknown. In the present study, a strategy of stenting both the main vessel and the side branch (MV+SB) was compared with a strategy of stenting the main vessel only, with optional stenting of the side bran...... hiện toàn bộ

Echocardiographic measurements of the left ventricular dimensions and wall thicknesses at end diastole and end systole, aortic root and left atrial dimensions, mitral valve E-F slope, left ventricular ejection fraction, percent fractional shortening of the left ventricular internal dimension, estimated left ventricular mass and percentage systolic thickening of the ventricular septum and l...... hiện toàn bộ
The Rate of Change of Left Ventricular Volume in ManOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 49 Số 4 - Trang 739-747 - 1974
K E Hammermeister, J.Richard Warbasse
Because there is little quantitative information about the hemodynamics of left ventricular diastolic events in man, single-plane cineangiographic left ventricular volume curves were quantitatively analyzed at 16.6 msec intervals to evaluate the rate and amount of left ventricular filling during the early passive stage of filling and during the time of atrial contraction.

Impaired left ventricular diastolic filling in patients with coronary artery disease: assessment with radionuclide angiography.Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 64 Số 2 - Trang 315-323 - 1981
Robert O. Bonow, Stephen L. Bacharach, M V Green, Kenneth M. Kent, Douglas R. Rosing, Lewis C. Lipson, Isabelle Lebert, S E Epstein
To assess left ventricular (LV) diastolic filling at rest in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), we analyzed high-resolution time-activity curves (10-20 msec/frame) obtained from gated radionuclide angiograms in 231 patients. Peak LV filling rate (PFR), expressed in end-diastolic volumes per second (EDV/sec), was subnormal in CAD patients (1.8 +/- 0.6 [+/- SD] vs normal mean of 3....... hiện toàn bộ
Mechanism of Adenosine-Induced Elevation of Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure in HumansOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 92 Số 3 - Trang 371-379 - 1995
Amit Nussbacher, Sigemituzo Ariê, Roberto Kalil Filho, Pedro Horta, Marc D. Feldman, Giovanni Bellotti, Fúlvio Pileggi, Mark Ellis, William H. Johnson, Gustavo B. Camarano, David A. Kass
Background
Continuous intravenous administration of adenosine to humans often results in a paradoxical rise in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), whereas arterial resistance is lowered and cardiac output and heart rate increase. This is believed to be due to diastolic stiffening of the ventricle or to a negative inotropic effect. ...... hiện toàn bộ
Assessment of anatomic and physiological severity of single-vessel coronary artery lesions by dipyridamole echocardiography. Comparison with positron emission tomography and quantitative arteriography.Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 89 Số 2 - Trang 753-761 - 1994

BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to compare the results of dipyridamole-echocardiography test (DET: two-dimensional echo monitoring during dipyridamole infusion up to 0.84 mg/kg over a period of 10 minutes) with both anatomic and physiological parameters of coronary artery disease severity, assessed by computer-assisted quanti...... hiện toàn bộ
