چکیده
Introduction Advances in oncology, such as better access to the health care system, earlier cancer diagnosis, and new chemotherapies, have led longer survival of patients with over last decades. However, this population is vulnerable drug-related adverse cardiovascular events, like cardiomyopathy, which leads heart failure impairs quality life., Among different classes chemotherapeutic agents, classically anthracyclines trastuzumab stand out most related cardiomyopathy. Anthracyclines may cause cardiac dysfunction [...]

Right ventricular dysfunction in asymptomatic diabetic patients.
D iabetes is thoroughly evidenced to increase the risk of development of heart failure even in the absence of frequently coexisting comorbidities such as coronary artery disease and hypertension. Cardiac adverse effects influenced by diabetes have been demonstrated thus far for the left ventricle, particularly systolic and diastolic dysfunction identified at rest (1–9) and/or during exercise (1...
متن کاملHigh myocardial 18F-FDG uptake after chemotherapy in the presence of left ventricular dysfunction as well as 3-month later with no left ventricular dysfunction
Diffusely increased glucose metabolic activity in the right and left ventricles using 2-deoxy-2-(F-18) fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDGPET/CT) and global left ventricular hypokinesia at echocardiography can be evident in acute myocarditis. But, there has been no case report that the ventricular 18F-FDGuptake remains unchanged even ...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Asymptomatic Black Hypertensive Subjects.
BACKGROUND Hypertension has been established as one of the commonest causes of heart failure especially in sub-Saharan Africa. We have previously observed a high prevalence of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in hypertensive heart failure patients in Nigeria despite a low prevalence of ischemic heart disease. The present study was, therefore, undertaken to assess the prevalence of asy...
متن کاملRisk Factors for Asymptomatic Ventricular Dysfunction in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
Objective. The aim of the study was to describe echocardiographic abnormalities in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, concurrent systemic comorbidities, rheumatologic clinical activity, serologic markers of rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory activity. Methods. In an observational, cross-sectional study, rheumatoid arthritis outpatients were included (n = 105). Conventional transthoracic ec...
متن کاملPromise of mineralocorticoid receptor blockade in asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction.
Mineralocorticoid receptor blockade (MRB) has been shown to improve survival and reduce hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) in patients with chronic severe HF (New York Heart Association class III to IV) because of systolic left ventricular dysfunction1 and in patients with myocardial infarction complicated by systolic left ventricular dysfunction and HF.2 The role of MRB in patients with m...
