Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic value of right ventricular mass, volume, and function in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension.

TL;DR: The RV contains prognostic information in IPAH and a large RV volume, low SV, and a reduced LV volume are strong independent predictors of mortality and treatment failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timing of cardiac contraction in humans mapped by high-temporal-resolution MRI tagging: early onset and late peak of shortening in lateral wall

TL;DR: Maps of the timing of contraction in normal subjects may serve as a reference in detecting mechanical asynchrony due to intraventricular conduction defects or ischemia in healthy persons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sildenafil treatment in COPD does not affect stroke volume or exercise capacity.

TL;DR: A reduced stroke volume was found at rest and during exercise and neither stroke volume nor exercise capacity were improved by 3 months of sildenafil therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accurate assessment of load-independent right ventricular systolic function in patients with pulmonary hypertension

TL;DR: Findings show that V(0) is dependent on RV dilation, and the assumption that E(es) is negligible in PAH is incorrect, and for an accurate assessment of load-independent RV systolic function, RV volumes and pressure curves are required.
Journal ArticleDOI

RC time constant of single lung equals that of both lungs together: a study in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

TL;DR: R and C in individual lungs in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients where resistances differ between both lungs are determined, and the contribution of the proximal pulmonary arteries (PA) to total lung compliance was assessed.
