Stage B patients of congestive heart failure usually have an enlarged left ventricle which is dysfunctional. This enlarged left ventricle is the main cause of some serious ailments that may have developed or have the chances of occurring in the later stages of life. Stage C One of the major s...
Heart rate variability at different stages of congestive heart failureS. ScalviniM. VolterraniE. ZanelliC. ScottiM. PaganiA. Giordano
Depressed heart rate variation has been shown to predict a high mortality rate in patients with severe congestive heart failure. To determine whether the degree of altered heart rate correlates with the clinical state, 24-h Holter monitoring was performed in 21 patients (mean ejection fraction: 18...
Sustained augmentation of parasympathetic tone with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition in patients with congestive heart failure Objectives. The objective of this investigation was to evaluate the changes in parasympathetic tone associated with long-term angiotensin-converting enzyme... Philip,F.,Binkley...
We used MIBG to evaluate cardiac adrenergic neuron integrity and function in congestive heart failure. Rats were treated with adriamycin (2 mg/kg, s.c.) on... S Wakasugi,M Inoue,S Tazawa - 《Journal of Nuclear Cardiology》 被引量: 48发表: 1995年 Adriamycin depresses in vivo and in vitr...
The level of this marker value can be affected by a number of factors, including age, menstrual status, and conditions such as endometriosis, pregnancy,liver disease, andcongestive heart failure. Cancers of the breast, pancreas, colon, and lung also secrete the CA-125 marker. ...
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are medications used to treat eligible patients with congestive heart failure and high blood pressure.121,122 These drugs block the effects of aldosterone, a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal glands that regulates sodium, potassium, and water in the ...
increasing the levels of carbon monoxide in the blood. Heart diseaseleading tocongestive heart failuremay also lower the amount of oxygen in the blood. Sudden, severe hypoxia may also cause brain damage and symptoms of dementia. Sudden hypoxia may occur if someone is comatose or has to be ...
Congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, stroke or peripheral vascular disease frequency was lower than 10% The prevalence of eGFR < 60 ml/min x 1.73 m(2) was: stage 3 (30-59 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) 19.7%; stage 4 (15-29 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) 1.2%; stage 5 no dialysis (...
Both high CRP and high serum fibrinogen levels and previous congestive heart failure measured in CKD stages 3 and 4, are independent risk factors for all-cause of mortality. High CRP but not high serum fibrinogen is a risk factor for non-fatal cardiovascular events. These results suggest that ...
