TL;DR: 3D-echo planimetry is superior to the accuracy of the Gorlin method for the assessment of mitral valve area and may be a better reference method to assess the severity of rheumatic mitral stenosis.

TL;DR: 3D-echo showed that the LVOT is elliptical in form and that its size is not related to its circularity, and could also be helpful in classifying the severity of valvular aortic stenosis.

TL;DR: Patients with DHF have high mortality during and after the first admission and age and pulmonary artery systolic pressure were identified as independent markers of bad long-term outcome.

TL;DR: La Eco-3D demuestra que el TSVI tiene una forma eliptica y que su tamano no se relaciona con su morfologia mas o menos circular, y probablemente se trate de un metodo mas preciso para evaluarla.

TL;DR: A history of ischaemic heart disease, a history of dilated cardiomyopathy and the presence of a cardiac rhythm different from the normal sinus rhythm are independent predictors of in-hospital mortality in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction.
