RIGHT ATRIAL FUNCTION IS IMPAIRED IN PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION AND REFLECTS RIGHT VENTRICLE FAILURE: THE IMPRES TRIAL
CHANGE IN LEFT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION MEASURED BY CIRCUMFERENTIAL STRAIN IS A SENSITIVE MARKER OF CHANGES IN PULMONARY HEMODYNAMICS AND RIGHT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION IN PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
Influence of cigarette smoking on cardiac biomarkers: the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study: Smoking and cardiac biomarkers
Cigarette smoking has been associated with incident heart failure independent of coronary artery disease (CAD), but the mechanisms linking smoking to cardiac damage are not well understood. This study sought to evaluate the relationship between smoking and N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-ProBNP) and high-sensitivity Troponin T (hs-TnT), respective biomarkers of myocardial wall stress and injury, in a large community-based cohort

RIGHT VENTRICULAR LONGITUDINAL STRAIN CORRELATES WITH CARDIOPULMONARY HEMODYNAMICS AND NT-PROBNP IN PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
LEFT VENTRICLE MASS IS ASSOCIATED WITH OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA SEVERITY IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE OR SIGNIFICANT RISK FACTORS
CHANGE IN LEFT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION MEASURED BY CIRCUMFERENTIAL STRAIN IS A SENSITIVE MARKER OF CHANGES IN PULMONARY HEMODYNAMICS AND RIGHT VENTRICULAR FUNCTION IN PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
Left atrial structure and function in cardiac amyloidosis
Although cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is characterized by significant left atrial (LA) dilatation, the characteristics of LA function remain to be fully investigated
