Comparison of Left Ventricular Function Utilizing Transthoracic Echocardiography in Anterior Wall Myocardial Infarction (AWMI) Before and after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) to Left Anterior Descending Artery (LAD) in Single Vessel Disease
The results of this study suggest that PCI to LAD results into left ventricular remodeling in patients with anterior wall myocardial infarction, and potentially improving overall cardiac performance is suggested.
RV dysfunction is clinically important in acute IWMI and is strongly associated with hemodynamic compromise, ECG markers, conduction abnormalities, and echocardiographic abnormalities, and routine assessment of RV function, particularly TAPSE and right-sided ECG leads, may improve early risk stratification and guide ma...

Background: Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) is a sensitive index of left ventricular systolic function. However, the prognostic value of this metric in patients with acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) has not been fully established. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled pat...

In patients with moderate pretest probability (PTP) of CAD, global left ventricular myocardial strain depends not only on the presence of hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis but also on its location.

BACKGROUND
Predicting the improvement of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) to medical therapy is an important, yet overlooked, clinical issue. The objective of the study was to evaluate whether echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) mechanoenergetic parameters and of LV volumes is associated with imp...

Parameter obtained from 2D-STE combined with regadenoson SE demonstrate favorable diagnostic value for identifying severe CAD in patients without RWMA at rest, and may be particularly useful for special populations who are unable to undergo exercise stress testing or have chronic respiratory diseases.

Background and objective: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS), particularly those affecting the left main coronary artery (LMCA), are associated with high morbidity and mortality. The objective of the present study was to investigate long-term outcomes in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for A...
