Indium-111 antimyosin uptake in congestive heart failure (CHF) and coronary artery disease (CAD)Whether heart rate or AV synchrony is the most important factor for an increase in aerobic capacity was evaluated in a comparative study between sinus bradycardia, VVIR, DDD, and DDDR stimulation. ...
105 (81–128) µmol/dl, p = 0.02] and higher hospital mortality (6.31% vs. 0%, p = 0.02). Conclusion Routine Pulmonary Function Testing should be performed in patients with Left ventricular dysfunction and/or congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac surgery since moderate to ...
revascularization (angioplasty, stent, or coronary artery bypass graft) on the risk of all-cause mortality after neoadjuvant hormonal therapy (HT) for prostate cancer (PC) in men with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD)-induced congestive heart failure (CHF) or myocardial infarction (MI)...
9 The proven benefits of LVAD therapy relative to optimal medical management make it likely that more and more elderly patients with heart failure will be referred for LVAD implantation in the future. As such, age-related health factors and comorbidities need to be carefully considered, and ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are common and interrelated conditions, each promoting the other, and both associated with increased mortality. HF leads to structural and electrical atrial remodeling, thus creating the basis for the development and perpetuation of AF; and AF may le...
Congestive heart failureHomocysteineCoronary artery diseaseEjection fractionBackground: Increased homocysteine (HCY) is associated with increased risk of vascular disease. Whether HCY affects development of congestive heart failure (CHF) independent of coronary artery disease (CAD) is uncertain. We evaluated...
Manon Allaire, Anna Sessa, Jean François Cadranel, Pascal LebrayView PDFSummary Heart failure and liver disease often coexist because of systemic disorders and diseases that affect both organs as well as complex cardio-hepatic interactions. Heart failure can cause acute or chronic liver injury du...
However, it is unknown which comorbid conditions eliminate this survival benefit.ObjectiveTo assess whether neoadjuvant HT use affects the risk of all-cause mortality in men with prostate cancer and coronary artery disease (CAD)–induced congestive heart failure (CHF) or ...
