The mini-PET in pediatric peritoneal dialysis: a useful tool to predict volume overload?
(Springer, 2013)
BACKGROUND:
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a major cause of death and is closely linked to hypertension and volume overload. The mini-Pet has been proposed as a useful tool ...
Levels of anti-M2 and anti-β1 autoantibodies do not correlate with the degree of heart dysfunction in Chagas' heart disease
(Elsevier Science, 2006-08)
Chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCC) is characterized mainly by a dilated cardiomyopathy complicated by frequent and complex ventricular arrhythmias and/or conduction defects. The aim of the present study was to evaluate ...
Differences in the extent of fibrosis in obstructive and nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
(Lippincott Williams, 2019-06)
Aims Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a key feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) that identifies patients at increased risk of adverse outcomes. Previous studies have hypothesized that LVOT ...
Alterações cardiovasculares associadas à obesidade induzida por dieta de cafeteria e o papel do tecido adiposo perivascular (PVAT)
