Community-based studies revealed a higher prevalence of LV systolic and diastolic dysfunction using the new echocardiographic imaging techniques. Future prospective studies will clarify the ...

Systolic congestive heart failure, or systolic heart failure, is a type of heart failure that involves the left side of the heart. As the left side of the heart begins losing some function ...

Targeting a systolic blood pressure (SBP) below 130 mmHg may significantly reduce hospitalizations in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a recent systematic review ...

CMR scans may reveal lamin heart disease prognostic biomarkers, enabling clinicians to better predict which patients are most ...

Systolic heart failure fundamentally changes how patients experience everyday activities. When the heart’s main pumping chamber can’t contract with enough force, the entire body feels the effects.

Heart failure sounds alarming—and rightfully so. Yet approximately 6.5 million Americans currently live with this condition, many with the specific variant called systolic heart failure ...

PERM1, a promising protein, paves the way for new treatments for systolic heart failure. The heart, an extraordinary muscle, beats tirelessly at 60 to 100 times a minute, day and night.

4 Some previous echocardiography studies have suggested that diastolic dysfunction may precede systolic dysfunction and chamber dilation in DMD, 5 although these findings have not been universal.

When examining data from 10,889 participants, researchers found a consistent association for markers of systolic dysfunction with smaller total brain volume. HealthDay News — Subclinical cardiac ...

The natural history of subclinical systolic and diastolic LV dysfunction in the general population is currently unknown. Serial imaging studies are required to clarify the progression of LV ...

Systolic congestive heart failure, or systolic heart failure, is a type of heart failure that involves the left side of the heart. As the left side of the heart begins losing some function ...
