Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of Left Ventricular Function After Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Is Predicted by Tissue Doppler Imaging Echocardiography
Martin Penicka,Jozef Bartunek,Bernard De Bruyne,Marc Vanderheyden,M. Goethals,Marc De Zutter,Pedro Brugada,Peter Geelen +7 more
TL;DR: In patients with CHF, the degree of intraventricular and interventricular asynchrony and their combination are the best predictive factors of LV functional recovery and reversed remodeling after cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Journal Article
The treatment of heart failure
W. Remme,John G.F. Cleland,H. J. Dargie,Erland Erdmann,Roberto Ferrari,Jan Kjekshus,M. Komajda,P. A. Poole-Wilson,Guenter Riegger,Jordi Soler-Soler,Luigi Tavazzi,Karl Swedberg,Finn Waagstein,M. Lye,Aggie H.M.M. Balk,M. Goethals,Günter Breithardt,D. J. Parker,Giuseppe Mancia,William Wijns,Bert Andersson,Hugo Ector,H. Gohlke,C. Patrono +23 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonmyocardial production of ST2 protein in human hypertrophy and failure is related to diastolic load.
Jozef Bartunek,Leen Delrue,Frederik Van Durme,Olivier Muller,Filip Casselman,Bart De Wiest,Romaric Croes,Sofie Verstreken,M. Goethals,Herbert de Raedt,Jaydeep Sarma,Lija Joseph,Marc Vanderheyden,Ellen O. Weinberg +13 more
TL;DR: In human hypertrophy and failure, serum ST2 correlates with the diastolic load and though the heart, endothelium, and leukocytes express components of ST2/ST2L/IL-33 pathway, the source of circulating serum ST 2 is extra-myocardial.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myocardial gene expression in heart failure patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy responders versus nonresponders.
Marc Vanderheyden,Wilfried Mullens,Leen Delrue,M. Goethals,Bernard De Bruyne,William Wijns,Peter Geelen,Sofie Verstreken,Francis Wellens,Jozef Bartunek +9 more
TL;DR: In HF patients with electromechanical cardiac dyssynchrony, functional improvement related to CRT is associated with favorable changes in established molecular markers of HF, including genes that regulate contractile function and pathologic hypertrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early and late effects of cardiac resynchronization therapy on force–frequency relation and contractility regulating gene expression in heart failure patients
Wilfried Mullens,Jozef Bartunek,W.H. Wilson Tang,Leen Delrue,Lieven Herbots,Rik Willems,Bernard De Bruyne,M. Goethals,Sofie Verstreken,Marc Vanderheyden +9 more
TL;DR: CRT is associated with an acute upward shift in the FFR without force-frequency amplification related to restored synchronicity and increased filling time of the LV.
