TL;DR

RV failure in patients with CTEPH patients is associated with reversible reduction in LV free wall mass, and whether LV mass reduction is caused by atrophy is studied.

Relationship Between Right Ventricular Function and Chronotropic Incompetence in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Associated With Connective Tissue Disease

Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with connective tissue disease (CTD-PAH) is a progressive disease characterized by remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature, leading to increased right ventricular (RV) afterload and impaired exercise capacity. Research Question The impact of RV dysfunction on chrono...

Myocardial remodeling and fibrosis by cardiovascular magnetic resonance in adults with congenital aortic valve stenosis.

BACKGROUND Left ventricular (LV) remodeling is becoming increasingly important in assessing the impact of aortic stenosis (AS). However, data on structural LV remodeling in congenital AS patients is scarce. Therefore, this study aimed to describe LV remodeling before and after aortic valve replacement (AVR) in adults w...

Relationship between right heart catheterization and exercise testing in heart failure patients with and without pulmonary hypertension – cross-sectional study

Introduction Left-sided heart disease is the leading cause of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Right heart catheterization (RHC) is the gold standard for diagnosing PH, although it is invasive. Noninvasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) could potentially help select heart failure (HF) patients who require RHC. Obj...

Multimodal Framework of Left Heart–Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling Underlying Right Ventricular Failure in PH-HFpEF

Background: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in pulmonary hypertension due to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PH-HFpEF) leads to adverse outcomes, yet the mechanisms underlying RV failure remain incompletely defined. We aimed to develop a multimodal framework integrating vascular mechanics and myocard...

Left Ventricular Remodeling in Mitral Valve Prolapse: More Than Volume Overload.

LV remodeling in MVP is a multifactorial process, where, especially in patients with Barlow disease, the associated mitral annular dilatation and larger prolapse volume drive LV dilatation beyond MR severity.

Association Between MRI-Derived Right-to-Left Ventricular Volume Ratio and Regional Left Ventricular Myocardial Dysfunction in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.

Elevated RV/LV volume ratio in PAH is associated with spatially heterogeneous LV strain impairment, with the mid-septum being most vulnerable, and may serve as an imaging marker for assessing LV dysfunction.
