Focused Cardiac Ultrasonography for Right Ventricular Size and Systolic Function

Focused cardiac ultrasonography is a practical, transthoracic, qualitative or semiquantitative means of assessing cardiac size, structure, and function that is performed and interpreted by the ...

Analysis of systolic cardiac function in PERM1-knockout mice using large cohorts of animals

PERM1 (PPARGC1 and ESRR induced regulator, muscle 1) was discovered by Cho et al. 1 as a regulator of energy metabolism in skeletal muscle. Subsequent studies by our group and others have demonstrated ...

Pressure overload-induced systolic heart failure is associated with characteristic myocardial microRNA expression signature and post-transcriptional gene regulation in male rats

Sustained pressure overload (PO) of the left ventricle (LV) (e.g., aortic stenosis [AS], aortic coarctation or arterial hypertension) induces the development of pathological LV myocardial hypertrophy ...

Left ventricular systolic function and diastolic filling after intermittent high intensity team sports

Background: Prolonged steady state exercise can lead to a decrease in left ventricular (LV) function as well as promote the release of cardiac troponin T (cTnT). There is limited information on the ...

Focused Cardiac Ultrasonography for Left Ventricular Systolic Function

Focused cardiac ultrasonography is a point-of-care, qualitative or semiquantitative means of assessing cardiac size, structure, and function that is performed and interpreted by the clinician at the ...
