The antihypertensive MTHFR gene polymorphism rs17367504-G is a possible novel protective locus for preeclampsia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01)Objective: Preeclampsia is a complex heterogeneous disease commonly defined by new-onset hypertension and proteinuria in pregnancy. Women experiencing preeclampsia have increased risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) later ... -
Cardiac adaptation to hypertension in adult female Dahl salt-sensitive rats is dependent on ovarian function, but loss of ovarian function does not predict early maladaptation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02-08)Aim of study was to examine experimentally the adult female hypertensive heart in order to determine the role of ovary function in the response of the heart to salt‐dependent hypertension. Dahl salt‐sensitive rats, age 12 ... -
Contrast stress echocardiography in hypertensive heart disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-11-18)Hypertension is associated with atherosclerosis and cardiac and vascular structural and functional changes. Myocardial ischemia may arise in hypertension independent of coronary artery disease through an interaction between ... -
Global left ventricular load in asymptomatic aortic stenosis: covariates and prognostic implication (the SEAS trial)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-05)Introduction: Valvuloarterial impedance (Zva) is a measure of global (combined valvular and arterial) load opposing left ventricular (LV) ejection in aortic stenosis (AS). The present study identified covariates and tested ... -
Myocardial function in aortic stenosis - insights from radial multilayer Doppler strain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-19)Background Left ventricular (LV) radial tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) strain increases gradually from the subepicardial to the subendocardial layer in healthy individuals. A speckle tracking echocardiography study suggested ...
