The goal of this work is the development and validation of a cardiac cell culture model (CCCM) microenvironment that accurately mimics pressure–volume changes seen in the left ventricle and to use ...

The possibility of an ultrasound study of the heart is widely used in modern cardiology. This non-invasive technology allows studying cardiac activity of the patient by determining the global ...

Accurate segmentation of the ventricles plays a crucial role in determining cardiac functional parameters such as ventricular volume, ventricular mass, and ejection fraction. However, poor image ...

Objective The natural history of frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) in association with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is uncertain. The optimal management of this ...

BACKGROUND: Evaluation of whether dyspnea has a cardiac cause is essential. Guidelines from 2016 were reported to result in a high incidence of indeterminate left ventricular (LV) filling pressure. We ...

BACKGROUND: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common curable cause of secondary hypertension that significantly increases left ventricular mass (LVM) and predisposes patients to adverse cardiovascular ...
