Difference in long-term clinical outcome after cardiac resynchronisation therapy between ischaemic and non-ischaemic aetiologies of heart failure. Heart 2009;95:113-8.Zhang Q, Fung JW, Chan JY et al. Difference in long-term clinical outcome after cardiac resynchro- nisation therapy between ...
No differences in baseline characteristics were observed except that nonischemic cardiomyopathy was more frequent in women than men (67% vs 38%, P < 0.05). In all patients, clinical and echocardiographic parameters improved significantly at 6-month follow-up. The magnitude of improvement in ...
Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM)– Dilated cardiomyopathy is when the heart’s chambers become enlarged and weakened. This causes intolerance to exercise, coughing, lethargy, and ultimately death. This is probably the most significant problem in the Doberman breed, to learn more (including how many Dober...
Cardiac diseases have been topping the list of killer diseases for the last 2-3 decades thanks to the stressful and unhealthy lifestyle we have got used to. Heart failure is the inability of the heart to pump blood adequately to fulfill the demand of the body.When this inability is due to...
Femoral and radial arterial pressure are two forms of arterial blood pressure measured in different sites of the body. Each time the heart beats, it pumps blood into thearteries. Ablood pressuremeasurement usually measures the pressure in the arteries when the heart pumps. Blood measurements can ...
Left ventricular sections showed widespread interstitial fibrosis, loss of myocytes and myocyte hypertrophy in TG mice.A high level of beta(2)AR overexpression results in cardiomyopathy and heart failure. The onset was slower and the expression levels of receptors required are much higher than ...
Background Gender difference is an important clinical feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM).Female patients are older and have more serious symptoms of heart failure at diagnosis. It is considered that age and menopause have an effect on the clinical presentation.Objects The goal of this study...
Ischemic cardiomyopathy was significantly higher in male patients (52 vs. 32.3%, P < 0.001) whereas valvular and dilated cardiomyopathy were higher in women (14.3% vs. 8.1%, P < 0.001; 18.2 vs.14.4%; P = 0.032), respectively. Mean left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly higher ...
