Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy
(2012-10-25)
Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TIC) is an important cause of heart failure as it is potentially reversible after ventricular rate control. A 66-year-old hypertensive woman presented with a 15-day history of tachycardia, ...
Apical ballooning syndrome (Takotsubo Syndrome): Case report
(2013-04-22)
Introduction. The apical ballooning syndrome (ABS) is a single reversible cardiomyopathy often triggered by a stressful event. We aimed to present a case report regarding this disorder. Case presentation. Here we present ...

Comparison of radionuclide ventriculography using SPECT and planar techniques in different cardiac conditions
(2007)
Purpose: Accurate assessment of ventricular function is required to optimize therapeutic management of cardiac diseases. The aim of this study was to correlate planar equilibrium multigated acquisition (MUGA) with tomographic ...
Sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of linear and nonlinear indices of heart rate variability in stable angina patients
(2012-10-31)
Background: Decreased heart rate variability (HRV) is related to higher morbidity and mortality. In this study we evaluated the linear and nonlinear indices of the HRV in stable angina patients submitted to coronary ...
