Relation between free triiodothyronine/free thyroxine ratio, echocardiographic parameters and mortality in dilated cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Abnormalities in thyroid function are frequent in patients with heart failure and are associated with increased mortality. However, the relation between thyroid hormone levels and echocardiographic parameters has not been investigated sufficiently. AIM The aims of this study were to investigate the correlations of thyroid hormone levels with echocardiographic parameters and to eval...
متن کاملEchocardiographic evaluation of diastolic parameters in dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Echocardiography is a valuable tool for the evaluation of systolic and diastolic cardiac function. A high correlation between measurements of diastolic mitral inflow parameters analyzed with Doppler echocardiography and invasive methods makes the former valuable. The aim of this study was to ascertain if significant differences occur in diastolic myocardial parameters between dogs with no heart...
متن کاملEffective thyroxine ratio and free thyroxine index
Brien, T. G., Fay, J. A., and Griffin, E. A. (1974). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 49, 225. Thyroid status in the newborn infant: effective thyroxine ratio and free thyroxine index. The effective thyroxine ratio (ETR) was determined in 28 term and 17 premature infants at birth and in 17 infants aged 0 to 6 weeks. The mean values found were significantly higher than those in 20 adult euthyro...
متن کاملComparison between determination of free thyroxine index and effective thyroxine ratio in human serum.
Four thyroid function indices were determined in the sera of 181 patients: total thyroxine (T-4), the triiodothyronine resin uptake (T-3 B.C.-index), the free thyroxine (T-4) index, and the effective thyroxine ratio (E.T.R.).A statistically significant correlation between the free T-4 index and E.T.R. could be established though this correlation seemed to be worse than could be expected from th...
متن کاملComparison between Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide in Children with Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Background: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is revealed with the left ventricular dilatation and systolic dysfunction. This study was performed to determine the level of Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) and Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) in children with dilated cardiomyopathy and controls and comparison of these two biomarkers in patients. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was...
