Because life expectancy and the prevalence of risk factors such as hypertension, obesity and diabetes are rising globally, heart failure (HF) is growing into a major health problem. Impairment of left ...

Cardiac MRI scan FGF23 levels may be associated with lower LV systolic function, higher LV mass, and lower LA function. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels may be associated with lower left ...

To distinguish the two groups, you really need to see the echocardiogram and the measurement of LVEF. "That doesn't preclude that these medications could have a longer-term benefit—maybe the ...

For patients who have heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and coronary artery disease, improvements in LV function after revascularization are linked to better long-term outcomes, an ...

Right ventricular systolic function evaluated through VO2 max is a more accurate measure of functional capacity of persons with heart failure compared with left ventricular systolic function. This ...

In a recent study published in the Journal of Critical Care, researchers assessed the cardiac function in patients experiencing severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Study: Cardiac function in ...

Cardiomyopathy is the leading cause of mortality in patients with DMD. Compared with their healthy counterparts, patients with DMD — including those with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction ...
