TLDR
The association between changes of CFR and those of LVFP indicates a possible common denominator between improvement of coronary microvascular function and myocardial stimulation of nitric oxide release induced by the drug.Abstract:
PurposeOur aim was to analyze the effects of 3-month antihypertensive therapy by nebivolol, a β-blocking agent with nitric oxide-mediated vasodilatory properties, on coronary flow reserve (CFR) and left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) in uncomplicated arterial hypertension.MethodsTwenty newly diread more

TL;DR: This article estimated glomerular filtration rate of the human glomerus and showed that the estimated rate can be improved by using the enzyme GFR-BPBP-DBPDBPdiastolic blood pressure

Diagnosis and Management of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in the Hypertensive Patient
TL;DR: Comprehensive assessment of diastolic function should be done not by a simple classification of DD progression but by estimating the degree of LV filling pressure (FP), a true determinant of symptoms and prognosis.

Non-invasive quantification of coronary vascular dysfunction for diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease
TL;DR: Current approaches to the quantification of coronary vascular function and the evidence supporting its potential diagnostic and prognostic implications are discussed with a particular focus on ischemic heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Practical approach to diastolic dysfunction in light of the new guidelines and clinical applications in the operating room and in the intensive care.
TL;DR: The present review aims at rationalizing the applicability of the recent recommendations to the perioperative and ICU areas, discussing the clinical meaning and echocardiographic findings of different grades of LVDD, describing the impact ofLVDD on patients’ outcomes and providing some hints on the management of patients with LVDd.

Doppler Tissue Imaging: A Noninvasive Technique for Evaluation of Left Ventricular Relaxation and Estimation of Filling Pressures
Sherif F. Nagueh,Katherine J. Middleton,Helen A. Kopelen,William A. Zoghbi,Miguel A. Quinones +4 more
TL;DR: Mitral E velocity, corrected for the influence of relaxation (i.e., the E/Ea ratio), relates well to mean PCWP and may be used to estimate LV filling pressures.

Clinical Utility of Doppler Echocardiography and Tissue Doppler Imaging in the Estimation of Left Ventricular Filling Pressures A Comparative Simultaneous Doppler-Catheterization Study
Steve R. Ommen,Rick A. Nishimura,Christopher P. Appleton,Fletcher A. Miller,J K Oh,Margaret M. Redfield,Abdul J. Tajik +6 more
TL;DR: The combination of tissue Doppler imaging of the mitral annulus and mitral inflow velocity curves provides better estimates of LV filling pressures than other methods (pulmonary vein, preload reduction), however, accurate prediction of filling pressures for an individual patient requires a stepwise approach incorporating all available data.

Relation of Left Ventricular Mass and Geometry to Morbidity and Mortality in Uncomplicated Essential Hypertension
TL;DR: Echocardiographically determined left ventricular mass and geometry stratify risk in patients with essential hypertension independently of and more strongly than blood pressure or other potentially reversible risk factors and may help to stratify the need for intensive treatment.
