Added Value of MAPSE to Assess LV Systolic Function in Conventional Cardiac Pacing Open
Background: Mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) is a simple and widely used M-mode echocardiographic marker of left-ventricular longitudinal function that correlates well with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Conventi…

Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity and the Emerging Role of SGLT2 Inhibitors: From Glycemic Control to Cardio-Oncology Open
Cancer remains the second leading cause of death worldwide. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a cornerstone of hematologic malignancy treatment, but it is limited by its dose-dependent cardiotoxicity, leading to systolic and diastolic cardiac dysfuncti…

Predictive Value of Several Echo Parameters for Cardiovascular Events in Hemodialysis Patients with Mid-range and Preserved Ejection Fraction Heart Failure Open
Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD) are predisposed to higher rates of major cardiovascular events, through several well-known pathophysiological mechanisms. The rates of all-cause mortality are 6 to 10fold gr…
