Impact of the length of vitamin D deficiency on cardiac remodeling.
(2013-07-01)
This study was aimed to evaluate the influence of vitamin D (VD) deficiency on cardiac metabolism, morphology, and function. Thus, we investigated the relationship of these changes with the length of the nutrient restriction. ...
Improved systolic ventricular function with normal myocardial mechanics in compensated cardiac hypertrophy
(2002-12-01)
There still controversy about the relation between changes in myocardial contractile function and global left ventricular (LV) performance during stable concentric hypertrophy. To clarify this, we analyzed LV function in ...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: A reviewCardiomiopatia Hipertrófica – Revisão
(2020-11-01)
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common heart disease with a genetic origin, and its main characteristic is left ventricular hypertrophy that occurs in the absence of other conditions that trigger this change. ...
Quantification of carbonic anhydrase gene expression in ventricle of hypertrophic and failing human heart
(Biomed Central, 2013-01)
Background: Carbonic anhydrase enzymes (CA) catalyze the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate in mammalian cells. Trans-membrane transport of CA-produced bicarbonate contributes significantly to cellular ...
Selective increase in cardiac IGF-1 in a rat model of ventricular hypertrophy
(Academic Press Inc., 1998)
There is evidence that insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) plays a role in the development of left ventricular hypertrophy, but it is uncertain whether cardiac IGP-1 changes before or after hypertension is established, ...
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Have a High Burden of Left Atrial Fibrosis by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(Elsevier, 2019)
Objectives: This study hypothesized that paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) reflects the presence of a more severe cardiac hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) phenotype. Background: HCM is characterized by myocyte hypertrophy, ...
