Histopathological Correlates of Global and Segmental Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Experimental Chronic Chagas Cardiomyopathy
BACKGROUND Chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy in humans is characterized by segmental left ventricular wall motion abnormalities (WMA), mainly in the early stages of disease. This study aimed at investigating the detection of WMA and its correlation with the underlying histopathological changes in a chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy model in hamsters. METHODS AND RESULTS Female Syrian hamsters (n=34) ...
متن کاملTemporal changes in plasma brain natriuretic peptide levels during exercise stress-echocardiography in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
The aim of this study was to evaluate temporal changes in brain natriuretic petide (BNP) levels during exercise stress-echocardiography in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy with respect to the left ventricular contractile reserve. We studied 55 consecutive patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (mean age, 55 ± 10 years, 49 (89.1%) male). All patients underwent exercise stress-echocardiography ...
متن کاملMyocardial stunning in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: recovery predicted by single photon emission computed tomographic thallium-201 scintigraphy.
A young woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy confirmed by echocardiography and cardiac catheterization presented with chest pain and features of a large left ventricular aneurysm. The initial diagnosis was myocardial ischemia with either an evolving or an ancient myocardial infarction. Subsequently, verapamil therapy was associated with complete resolution of the extensive left ventricular wa...
متن کاملPosterolateral Hypokinesia–Slight Circumflex Artery Stenosis or Mid-Ventricular Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy?
In a 62-year old male patient with seldon atypical chest pain at rest, independant or physical stress. ECG was completely normal without any sign of ischemia. Echocardiography revealed normal dimension of the left ventricle (EDD 4.6cm) with an ejection fraction of 56%, valves without signs of sclerosis or regurtation. No impairment of the anterior and inferior left ventricular wall, but signs o...
متن کاملLeft ventricular systolic dysfunction during exercise and dobutamine stress in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES We sought to characterize stress-induced left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). BACKGROUND Myocardial ischemia and diastolic dysfunction occur in patients with HCM. We hypothesized that, in the setting of transient myocardial ischemia, left ventricular systolic dysfunction occurs during exercise and dobutamine stress. METHODS We ...
