Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Velocity Time Integral: Old Echocardiography Parameter with New Evidence in Acute and Chronic Heart Failure

Heart failure remains a medical issue with a high burden of morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis, treatment, and heart failure monitoring continue to be challenges in clinical practice. Many factors have been proposed for...

RECURRENT CARDIAC MYXOMAS AS A MANIFESTATION OF CARNEY COMPLEX: A CASE REPORT

Carney complex is a dominant genetic disease associated with many neoplasm in multiple endocrine glands such as the thyroid, pituitary, and adrenal glands and tumors outside the endocrine glands. Typically, patients...

Clinical, Paraclinical Characteristics, and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings in Patients with MINOCA

Objective: To describe the clinical, paraclinical characteristics, and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging findings in patients with MINOCA. Subjects and Methods: A descriptive observational study conducted on 33 pa...

THE CLINICAL, SUBCLINICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND TREATMENT RESULT OF PNEUMONIA IN CHILDREN WITH VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT

Background: Ventricular septal defect is an acyanotic heart defect, right-to-left-shunt causes volume overloading of the pulmonary. So, a few patient has clinical symptoms as heart failure, as well as more frequent respi...

Evaluation of Left Atrial Function by Myocardial Tissue Doppler Echocardiography in Patients with Hypertension and Metabolic Syndrome

Objective: To assess left atrial function using Speckle- tracking echocardiography in patients with hypertension and metabolic syndrome. To explore the relationship between left atrial function and the ankle-brachial ind...
