Background Stroke volume is an established echocardiographic marker but has not been widely studied in patients with ...

Associations between FGF23 levels and LV systolic and LA function were observed for all races and regardless of glomerular filtration rate.

Although LV volume and systolic function can be abnormal in adults late after TOF repair, PVR may have a beneficial effect on LV systolic function.

Whether LV systolic function is poor or preserved doesn't have much affect on the clinical presentation of patients hospitalized with HF, but it may signal important pathophysiologic differences ...

Although LV volume and systolic function can be abnormal in adults late after TOF repair, PVR may have a beneficial effect on LV systolic function. The authors found that the only independent CMR ...

Moreover, impairment of LV diastolic function, longitudinal systolic function and midwall fractional shortening might appear very early in the course of heart disease.

In patients with a clear-cut diagnosis of LVNC with impaired LV systolic function, treatment should follow current HF guidelines, such as the 2013 recommendations from the American College of ...

Conclusions: In this cohort, LV systolic function was not significantly altered after intermittent activity. A transient depression in global diastolic filling was partially attributable to a raised ...

LV end-systolic volume reduction of at least 15% at 1 year after implantation was the definition for absolute response. An increase of at least 20% in distance walked in the 6-minute walk test or ...

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.
