Left ventricular events in systemic hypertension.
The duration of the various mechanical events of ventricular activity is considerably modified by such factors as heart rate, stroke volume, sympathomimetic agents, and body temperature. The time relationship of these events with the variations of the aortic pressure curve has been determined by several workers (Weissler, Peeler, and Roehil, 1961; Braunwald, Sarnoff, and Stainsby, 1958; Shah an...
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 کاملEndothelial and Non-Endothelial Coronary Blood Flow Reserve and Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Systemic Hypertension
OBJECTIVES We evaluated the impairment of endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent coronary blood flow reserve after administration of intracoronary acetylcholine and adenosine, and its association with hypertensive cardiac disease. INTRODUCTION Coronary blood flow reserve reduction has been proposed as a mechanism for the progression of compensated left ventricular hypertrophy to ve...
متن کاملLeft ventricular hypertrophy in systemic hypertension. Benefits of its reversal.
The complex problem of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) related to systemic arterial hypertension (H) has motivated several experimental, clinical and epidemiological studies. Because LVH is an important predisposing factor for heart failure 1 and because it is physiopathologically related to ischemic heart disease and ventricular arrhythmias, hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy is an i...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in essential hypertension.
OBJECTIVES We sought to assess the prognostic value of alterations in left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in patients with essential hypertension. BACKGROUND Alterations in LV diastolic function are frequent in patients with hypertension, even in the absence of LV hypertrophy, but their prognostic significance has never been investigated. METHODS In the setting of the Progetto Ipertens...
