ABSTRACT Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), an auto-somal dominant disorder due to mutation of genes encoding sarcomeric proteins, leads to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Recently, the research in this area suggests that systolic dysfunction exists in the patients with HCM even though traditional measures of systolic dysfunction are normal. So, we carried out this study to determine global systolic dysfunction in patients with HCM. Materials and Methods: A total of 18 patients, diagnosed with HCM according to echocardiography parameters, that is thickness of interventricular septum/posterior wall thickness >1.3 or hypertrophy involving apex only with or without left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, were included in the study and were compared with normal age-matched controls. We measured torsion and strain imaging by 2-dimensional echocardiography as well as strain imaging by tissue Doppler echocardiography. Result: The results of the study showed that there was considerable increased torsion in patients with HCM as compared to normal subjects (16.61±7.43 vs. 10.42±4.73, p=0.006). Tissue Doppler indices—systolic annular velocity (7.7±0.7 vs. 8.7±1.00, p=0.012) and lateral wall E/E’ (12.52±5.27 vs. 6.66±1.67, p<0.001) were significantly different in patients with HCM and normal subjects. The average systolic strain and strain rate as well as diastolic strain rate were significantly different in both the groups when strain imaging was performed by tissue Doppler echocardiography. We also observed significantly reduced global longitudinal, circumferential and radial strain in patients with HCM when strain analysis was carried out with 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography. Conclusion: The global subtle systolic dysfunction, as measured by left ventricular torsion and strain imaging, is present in patients with HCM even though traditional measure of systolic dysfunction is normal.

ABSTRACT Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are prone to develop heart failure even in the absence of evident hypertension and coronary artery disease. This entity is difficult to detect in early stages by conventional echocardiographic techniques. 32 asymptomatic TMT (tread mill stress test) negative DM patients compared with control subjects were screened and performed LV (left ventricle) strain, strain rate and tissue Doppler imaging. Tissue Doppler imaging revealed increased E/E’ of IVS (Inter ventricular septum) (p value<0.001) among DM suggestive of diastolic dysfunction. The tissue velocities E’ of both the LV lateral wall (p value=0.004) and RV (right ventricle) (p value =0.003) were reduced among DM. Similarly, the peak systolic strain (p value<0.001), and strain rate (p value<0.001) were significantly reduced among diabetic subjects. DM is an independent risk factor for myocardial dysfunction even in asymptomatic normotensive subjects. The changes that occur in the myocardium due to diabetic cardiomyopathy can be detected early, as the novel tissue Doppler is a noninvasive technique for early detection of Diabetic cardiomyopathy. 必威体育betway888 Journal of Pharmaceutical, Biological and Chemical Sciences

ABSTRACT Background and Aims: Dynamic parameters such as the respiratory variation in aortic flow peak velocity (ΔVpeak) and inferior vena cava distensibility index (dIVC) are accurate indices of fluid responsiveness in adults. Little is known about their utility in children. We studied the ability of these indices to predict fluid responsiveness in anaesthetised and mechanically ventilated children. Methods: This prospective study was conducted in 42 children aged between one to 14 years scheduled for elective surgery under general endotracheal anaesthesia. Mechanical ventilation was initiated with a tidal volume of 10 ml/kg. ΔVpeak, dIVC and stroke volume index (SVI) were measured before and after volume expansion (VE) with 10 ml/kg of crystalloid using transthoracic echocardiography. Patients were considered to be responders (R) and non?responders (NR) when SVI increased to either ≥15% or <15% after VE. ΔVpeak and dIVC were analysed between R and NR. Results: The best cut?off value for ΔVpeak as defined by the receiver operator characteristics (ROC) curve analysis was 12.2%, for which sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 100%, 94%, 96% and 100%, respectively, the area under the curve was 0.975. The best cut?off value for dIVC as defined by the ROC curve analysis was 23.5%, for which sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 91%, 89%, 91% and 89%, respectively, the area under the curve was 0.95. Conclusion: ΔVpeak and dIVC are reliable indices of fluid responsiveness in children.

Description: A 53-year-old woman diagnosed with rheumatic mitral stenosis (at the age of 40 years) presented with worsening dyspnoea New York Heart Association class III of 1 month duration ECG showed atrial fibrillation with a fast ventricular rate. Echocardiography parameters were suggestive of severe mitral stenosis with atrial fibrillation. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed a large clot in the left atrial (LA) appendage, attached to the LA roof and traversing towards the opposite wall A left atrial (LA) clot in the presence of mitral valve disease is often focal in most cases. The present case had a huge non-focal clot confined to a plane of the LA body, partitioning the LA into two separate cavities, the rarest of its kind. BMJ (British Medical Journal)
