Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating Left Ventricular Filling Pressure by Echocardiography
O S Andersen,Otto A. Smiseth,Hisham Dokainish,Muaz M. Abudiab,Robert C. Schutt,Arnav Kumar,Kimi Sato,Serge C. Harb,Einar Gude,Espen W. Remme,Arne K. Andreassen,Jong-Won Ha,Jiaqiong Xu,Allan L. Klein,Sherif F. Nagueh +14 more
TL;DR: Echocardiographic assessment of LV filling pressure is feasible and accurate and when combined with clinical data, it leads to a more accurate diagnosis, regardless of LVEF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution and Prognostic Significance of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain in Asymptomatic Significant Aortic Stenosis: An Individual Participant Data Meta-Analysis
Julien Magne,Bernard Cosyns,Bogdan A. Popescu,Helle Gervig Carstensen,Jordi S. Dahl,Milind Y. Desai,Leighton G Kearney,Patrizio Lancellotti,Thomas H. Marwick,Kimi Sato,Masaaki Takeuchi,Concetta Zito,Anne-Claire Casalta,Dania Mohty,Luc Pierard,Gilbert Habib,Erwan Donal +16 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in asymptomatic patients with significant AS and normal LVEF, impaired LVGLS is associated with reduced survival, and the potential usefulness ofLVGLS for risk stratification and management of these patients is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex Left Atrial Appendage Morphology and Left Atrial Appendage Thrombus Formation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Masayoshi Yamamoto,Yoshihiro Seo,Naoto Kawamatsu,Kimi Sato,Akinori Sugano,Tomoko Machino-Ohtsuka,Ryo Kawamura,Hideki Nakajima,Miyako Igarashi,Yukio Sekiguchi,Tomoko Ishizu,Kazutaka Aonuma +11 more
TL;DR: Complex LAA morphology characterized by an increased number of L AA lobes was associated with the presence of LAA thrombus independently of clinical risk and blood stasis, and this study suggests that L AA morphology might be a congenital risk factor for LAAThrombus formation in patients with AF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Preserved Systolic Function.
Amgad Mentias,Pejman Raeisi-Giglou,Nicholas G. Smedira,Ke Feng,Kimi Sato,Oussama M. Wazni,Mohamad Kanj,Scott D. Flamm,Maran Thamilarasan,Zoran B. Popović,Harry M. Lever,Milind Y. Desai +11 more
TL;DR: In low-/intermediate-risk adult patients with HCM with preserved systolic function, %LGE was significantly associated with a higher rate of composite endpoint, providing incremental prognostic utility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic value of LV deformation parameters using 2D and 3D speckle-tracking echocardiography in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis and preserved LV ejection fraction.
Yasufumi Nagata,Masaaki Takeuchi,Victor Chien-Chia Wu,Masaki Izumo,Kengo Suzuki,Kimi Sato,Yoshihiro Seo,Yoshihiro J. Akashi,Kazutaka Aonuma,Yutaka Otsuji +9 more
TL;DR: 3DGLS is the most robust index for predicting future adverse cardiac events in asymptomatic severe AS patients with preserved LVEF and 3DSTE-derived multidirectional strain parameters are the most powerful predictor for future MACE.
