More than half of patients hospitalized with influenza had signs of left ventricular (LV) or right ventricular (RV) dysfunction.

Cardiovascular diseases, the leading global cause of mortality, are frequently driven by hypertension, which contributes to left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and heart failure. Although ejection ...

It is a common perception that approximately 50% of heart failure (HF) patients present with a normal or near-normal left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ("HF with preserved systolic function"), ...

Heart failure in the perinatal period remains ambiguous in definition and management despite its recognition as a unique disease state. The true incidence and prevalence of heart failure or left ...

Left ventricular dysfunction is a known risk factor for morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis patients. The prognostic value of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) among those with ...
