Serum osteoprotegerin level is independently related to subclinical left atrial mechanical function in patients with hypertension and diabetes
(Urban & Vogel, 2020)
Objectives Previous studies showed that subclinical abnormal left atrial (LA) function could be diagnosed with LA speckle tracking evaluation long before chamber enlargement. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a member of the tumor ...
Blood urea nitrogen is associated with long-term all-cause mortality in stable angina pectoris patients: 8-year follow-up results
(Russian Heart Failure, 2021)
Background Elevation of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) indicates renal dysfunction and is associated with increased mortality in cardiovascular diseases. We investigated the relationship between the BUN concentration measured ...
Is adiponectin elevation associated with left atrial remodeling and impaired mechanical functions? (a speckle tracking study)
(Russian Heart Failure, 2021)
Objectives Recent studies demonstrated that elevated adiponectin levels predicted an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke; however, a causal relationship is yet to be unknown. Reduced left atrium (LA) ...
Pheochromocytoma: An overlooked reversible cause of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
(AVES, 2021)
Pheochromocytoma is a rare, benign tumor of adrenal medulla, and its clinical symptoms are related to catecholamine production. Clinical presentation may vary in a broad spectrum. Dilated or hypertrophied cardiomyopathies ...
FEV1 is independently related with impaired left atrial strain in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients: A speckle tracking study
(Wiley, 2021)
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. It is known that impaired forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) is one of the risk factors of cardiovascular disease. ...
Paradoxical association between lipoprotein cholesterol levels and left atrial function in hypertensive diabetic patients: A speckle tracking study
(Wiley, 2021)
Background Studies have shown that subclinical left atrial (LA) dysfunction can be diagnosed with two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE). Although low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a risk ...
Impaired left atrial mechanical functions as indicators for increased aortic root diameter in hypertensive and diabetic patients
(Urban & Vogel, 2021)
Objectives Previous studies have demonstrated that increased aortic root diameter (ARD) is frequently associated with increased cardiovascular (CV) events and is a predictor of stroke. Two-dimensional speckle tracking ...
Evaluation of left ventricular global functions with speckle tracking echocardiography in patients recovered from COVID-19
(Springer, 2021)
Highly sensitive troponin (hs-TnI) levels are frequently elevated in COVID-19 patients and are associated with increased cardiovascular mortality during hospitalization. However, no data exists on cardiac involvement in ...
Epicardial adipose tissue is associated with increased systolic pulmonary artery pressure in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(Wiley, 2020)
Objectives: Pulmonary hypertension (PHT) is one of the essential predictors of mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is thought that PHT is due to vasoconstriction secondary to hypoxia caused by ...
Myocardial injury in COVID-19 patients is associated with the thickness of epicardial adipose tissue
(Russian Heart Failure Soc., 2021)
Aim High sensitive troponin (hs-TnI) levels may increase secondary to Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), and this increase is associated with cardiovascular mortality in COVID-19 patients. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) ...
