Left ventricular function in children studied by increasing peripheral resistance with angiotensin.
SUMMARY Response to angiotensin infusion was evaluated in 11 normal children and 24 patients with suspected left ventricular dysfunction. This included 12 patients with endocardial fibroelastosis, three with idiopathic myocardial hypertrophy, one with cardiac glycogenosis, and eight with the Hunter-Hurler syndrome. In 20 of these 24 patients, cardiac catheterization findings confirmed the clini...
متن کاملThe Study of Left Ventricular Function in Man by Increasing Resistance to Ventricular Ejection with Angiotensin.
IN spite of the development of refined hemodynamic and angiographic technics for evaluation of the mechanical function of the heart valvJes, the assessment of the function of the myocardium remains a difficult problem in man. Although the ventricular end-diastolic pressure has been employed frequently for determining the presence or absence of heart failure, a number of factors other than myoca...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Evaluation of left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation
Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...
متن کاملLEFT VENTRICULAR DIASTOLIC ABNORMALITIES IN β-THALASSEMIA MAJOR WITH NORMAL SYSTOLIC FUNCTION
In order to identify left ventricular diastolic function in patients with betathalassemia major and normal systolic function by noninvasive M-mode and Doppler echocardiography, an analytic study was designed in a university hospital in Sari. We have studied 44 patients (23 men and 21 women), mean age 15.48±2.16 (range 12 to 20) and 43 age and sex matched control subjects. Peak flow velocit...
متن کاملResveratrol Suppresses Cardiac Renin Angiotensin System in the Late Phase of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
Background and objectives: Resveratrol(3,5,4′-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) is a natural polyphenole phytoalexin which exerts potential cardioprotective effects, but the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for these effects are still unknown. Cardiac renin angiotensin system (RAS) over-activation plays an important role in pathogenesis of left ventricula...
