Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasurements of Mitral Annular Displacement in 2D Echocardiography ImagesFaten A. Dawood, Rahmita W. Rahmat, Suhaini B. Kadiman et al.Mitral Annular Displacement (MAD) in echocardiography has been described as a variation in mitral annulus position between the end-diastolic and the end-systolic in a complete cardiac cycle. It could be used as a rapid and reproducible method of determining the LV global systolic function and could be an easily detectable index for wall motion abnormalities. In this study, a computational … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 4 Jul 2015 · 6,853 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of the Severity of Mitral Valvular Regurgitation with Doppler Echocardiography Using Proximal Flow Convergence MethodPinjari Abdul Khayum, M.N. Giriprasad, P.V. SrideviProblem statement: Valvular regurgitation is recognized as the central cause of morbidity and mortality. Even though the clinician can detect the presence of regurgitation by mere physical examination; diagnostic methods become inevitable while estimating the severity of valvular regurgitation and in the transformation of cardiac chambers as in reaction to the volume overload condition. Lately, a promising new technology, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,223 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy Scope of Cardiographic Diagnosis of Myxomatous Mitral Valvular Disease and Sinus Arrhythmia in Dogs and CatsIntan Permatasari Hermawan, Hana Cipka Pramuda Wardhani, PalestinMyxomatous Mitral Valvular Disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac problem in dogs, and sinus arrhythmia in cats is important to early diagnosis. This study aimed to diagnose Myxomatous Mitral Valvular Disease (MMVD) using echocardiography and sinus arrhythmia using electrocardiography in dogs and cats. This study evaluates two dogs, a male mix domestic, and two cats, a male mix domestic, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2025 · 5,080 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExpression of the CD44 Protein in the Heart Valves Affected with Rheumatic Heart DiseaseR. Vijayalakshmi, S. Nayar, K.M. CherianProblem statement: The primary aim was to study the expression of CD44 protein in the heart valves removed surgically for either stenosis or regurgitation and to study the morphology of valves using histochemical staining. Approach: We studied 107 valves which were collected from the International Centre for Cardio Thoracic and Vascular Diseases. Results: Aortic and mitral valves were obtained from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,412 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case of a Young Patient with Acute Endocarditis and Challenging Diagnostic and Treatment DecisionsPau Rello, Teresa González-Alujas, Laura Escolà-Vergé et al.Despite advances achieved in recent years, Infective Endocarditis (IE) remains a disease associated with high mortality and morbidity. When it involves multiple locations at the same time, deciding the best treatment can become challenging. In some cases, especially in patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis, a definitive diagnosis can be difficult to achieve and multimodality imaging including Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 9 Jun 2021 · 7,390 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Acute Bronchiolitis on Cardiac Functions and Serum microRNA-122 and 499Mona Abd El-Gelel Mohamed, Khalid Mahmoud ZayedBronchiolitis is an acute inflammatory injury of the bronchioles that is usually caused by a viral infection, most commonly Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). This study aimed to verify the direct injurious effect of acute bronchiolitis on the myocardium and serum level of microRNA-122 and 499 (miR-122 and miR-499) of infected infants.
