Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac abnormalities in young women with anorexia nervosa.
G. De Simone,Luca Scalfi,Maurizio Galderisi,Aldo Celentano,G. Di Biase,P. Tammaro,M. Garofalo,Gian Francesco Mureddu,O. de Divitiis,Franco Contaldo +9 more
TL;DR: Anorexia nervosa caused demonstrable abnormalities of mitral valve motion and reduced left ventricular mass and filling associated with systolic dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of ambulatory blood pressure on left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in uncomplicated arterial systemic hypertension
TL;DR: LV diastolic function is more closely related to ambulatory, rather than to clinic, BP measurements, and high average nocturnal diastsolic BP is a powerful marker of LV filling impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blood pressure and cardiac morphology in young children of hypertensive subjects.
Aldo Celentano,Maurizio Galderisi,M. Garofalo,Gian Francesco Mureddu,P. Tammaro,M. Petitto,Di Somma S,de Divitiis O +7 more
TL;DR: Early cardiac alterations and a tendency for effort hypertension in children of hypertensives are confirmed and could be explained by effort systolic overload or by a common response to an increased adrenergic stimulus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in offspring of hypertensive patients. Relation to left ventricular structure and function.
Maurizio Galderisi,Aldo Celentano,P. Tammaro,Gian Francesco Mxireddu,M. Garofalo,Giovanni de Simone,Oreste de Divitiis +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that male gender and a family history of hypertension are stronger determinants of early changes in cardiac structure than hemodynamic load in a group of young, normotensive adults.
Journal Article
Reduction of left ventricular mass by short-term antihypertensive treatment with isradipine: a double-blind comparison with enalapril.
Maurizio Galderisi,Aldo Celentano,M. Garofalo,P. Tammaro,Oliviero M,A. Petrocelli,O. de Divitiis +6 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that isradipine treatment improves LV systolic function and causes a significant reduction in LV mass early in the course of antihypertensive treatment and is effective in both patients with and without LV hypertrophy.
