Prognostic Value of Left and right ventricular deformation strain analysis on Acute Cellular rejection in Heart Transplant recipients: A 6-year outcome study
Abstract Purpose Two-dimensional (2D) strain analysis is a sensitive method for
detecting myocardial dysfunction in acute cellular rejection (ACR) from
post-transplant complications. This study aims to evaluate the utility of novel
left (LV) and right ventricular (RV) strain parameters for prognostic risk
stratification associated with ACR burden at 1-year post transplantation.

Left atrial strain is associated with long-term mortality in acute coronary syndrome patients
- Trang 1-11 - 2024
To investigate the long-term prognostic value of the left atrial (LA) strain
indices – peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS), peak conduit strain (PCS), and
peak atrial contractile strain (PACS) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients
in relation to all-cause mortality. This retrospective study included ACS
patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and examined with
echocar...
Altered cardiac structure and function in newly diagnosed people living with HIV: a prospective cardiovascular magnetic resonance study after the initiation of antiretroviral treatment
Tập 39 Số 1 - Trang 169-182
AbstractHIV associated cardiomyopathy (HIVAC) is a poorly understood entity that
may progress along a continuum. We evaluated a group of persons newly diagnosed
with HIV and studied the evolution of cardiac abnormalities after ART
initiation. We recruited a group of newly diagnosed, ART naïve persons with HIV
and a healthy, HIV uninfected group. Participants underwent comprehensive
cardiovascular ...
“Vascular inflammation and cardiovascular disease: review about the role of PET imaging”
AbstractInflammation characterizes all stages of atherothrombosis and provides a
critical pathophysiological link between plaque formation and its acute rupture,
leading to coronary occlusion and heart attack. In the last 20 years the
possibility of quantifying the degree of inflammation of atherosclerotic plaques
and, therefore, also of vascular inflammation aroused much interest.

Valve disease in cardiac amyloidosis: an echocardiographic score
AbstractCardiac amyloidosis (CA) may affect all cardiac structures, including
the valves. From 423 patients undergoing a diagnostic workup for CA we selected
2 samples of 20 patients with amyloid transthyretin (ATTR-) or light-chain (AL-)
CA, and age- and sex-matched controls. We chose 31 echocardiographic items
related to the mitral, aortic and tricuspid valves, giving a value of 1 to each
abnorm...
Impact of trans-stent gradient on outcome after PCI: results from a HAWKEYE substudy
Tập 38 Số 12 - Trang 2819-2827
AbstractTo test whether quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-based trans-stent gradient
(TSG) is associated with adverse clinical events at follow-up. A post-hoc
analysis of the multi-center HAWKEYE study was performed. Vessels post-PCI were
divided into four groups (G) as follows: G1: QFR ≥ 0.90 TSG = 0 (n = 412,
54.8%); G2: QFR ≥ 0.90, TSG > 0 (n = 216, 28.7%); G3: QFR < 0.90, TSG = 0
(n = 37, 4.9%); G...
The impact of lifestyle intervention on left atrial function in type 2 diabetes: results from the DIASTOLIC study
Tập 38 Số 9 - Trang 2013-2023
AbstractAerobic exercise training and low energy diets have been shown to
improve left ventricular remodelling and diastolic function in adults with type
2 diabetes (T2D), albeit with differential effects. The impact of these
lifestyle interventions on left atrial (LA) function, however, has not
previously been reported. The DIASTOLIC study was a prospective, randomised,
open-label, blind endpoint...
Mitral valve regurgitation assessed by intraventricular CMR 4D-flow: a systematic review on the technological aspects and potential clinical applications
Tập 39 Số 10 - Trang 1963-1977
AbstractCardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) four-dimensional (4D) flow is a novel
method for flow quantification potentially helpful in management of mitral valve
regurgitation (MVR). In this systematic review, we aimed to depict the clinical
role of intraventricular 4D-flow in MVR. The reproducibility, technical aspects,
and comparison against conventional techniques were evaluated. Published studie...
