Strain Pattern on Electrocardiogram Is Associated with Increased Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Patients with Aortic Valve Stenosis
(2016-08-01)
Background Coronary artery disease is present in at least 30% of patients with degenerative aortic stenosis (AS). Atherosclerosis also performs an important role in the progression of AS, because of the similarities of ...
Rosemary supplementation (Rosmarinus oficinallis L.) attenuates cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction in rats
(2017-05-01)
Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Dietary intervention on adverse cardiac remodeling after MI has significant clinical relevance. Rosemary leaves are ...
Preventive training does not interfere with mRNA-encoding myosin and collagen expression during pulmonary arterial hypertension
(2021-09-01)
To gain insight on the impact of preventive exercise during pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), we evaluated the gene expression of myosins and gene-encoding proteins associated with the extracellular matrix remodeling ...
Açai supplementation (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) attenuates cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction in rats through different mechanistic pathways
(2022-03-01)
Myocardial infarction has a high mortality rate worldwide. Therefore, clinical intervention in cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction is essential. Ac¸ai pulp is a natural product and has been considered a functional ...
Jaboticaba (Myrciaria jaboticaba) Attenuates Ventricular Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction in Rats
(2022-02-01)
The cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction is characterized by inflammation and oxidative stress. Thus, this study aimed to test the hypothesis that jaboticaba, due to its anti‐inflammatory and antioxidants properties, ...
Síndrome da cimitarra: relato de caso com falsos diagnósticos e conduta adequada
(Sociedade Brasileira de Pneumologia e Tisiologia, 2000-12)
Scimitar syndrome is rare, but knowledge about it is important to pediatricians and pneumologists. X-ray can suggest diagnosis, but the interpretation can be wrong. If a diagnosis is made, further anomalies must be ...
Disfunção Arterial como Possível Mecanismo de Agressão Cardíaca em Pacientes com Diabetes Mellitus Tipo II. Estudo Doppler-Ecocardiográfico
(1997-09-01)
Purpose - To evaluate the left ventricular structure and function and the arterial stiffness in type II diabetic patients. Methods - Thirteen diabetic patients, men and women (age 55±8 years) were included in the study. ...
Doppler echocardiographic assessment of pregnant women with chronic arterial hypertensionAvaliação doppler-ecocardiográfica de gestantes portadoras de hipertensǎo arterial crônica
(2002-12-01)
Objective - To assess structural and functional cardiac changes in asymptomatic pregnant women with chronic arterial hypertension (CAH). Methods - One hundred pregnant women with CAH underwent conventional Doppler ...
Combined exercise training in asymptomatic elderly with controlled hypertension: Effects on functional capacity and cardiac diastolic function
(2012-01-01)
Background: Aging is associated with changes in cardiac structure and function that are associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Whether diastolic functional alterations during senescence are manifestations ...
Early echocardiographic predictors of increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure three months after myocardial infarction in rats
(2012-01-01)
Background: The objective of this study was to determine the early echocardiographic predictors of elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) after a long follow-up period in the infarcted rat model. ...
