Mecanismos de adaptação do coração em atletas de elite do sexo feminino: comparação com indivíduos sadios e tempo de treinamento

ABC., imagem cardiovasc; 36 (1), 2023
Fundamento: O exercício intenso e continuado em atletas provoca fenótipos de remodelamento adaptativo, cujos parâmetros podem ser avaliados pela ecocardiografia convencional, e de deformação miocárdica. Assim, foi comparado o remodelamento miocárdico em atletas do sexo feminino (grupo atletas) com...

Compound Danshen Dripping Pills pretreatment protects the heart from ischemia/reperfusion injury by enhancing autophagic flux

Abstract Compound Danshen Dripping Pills (CDDPs) have been used in clinical treatment to protect the heart from ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury for many years. However, the underlying mechanism implicated in the protective effects remains to be explored. Here, we determined the effects of CDDPs in Sprag...

Pre-treatment of the beta3-adrenergic receptor agonist BRL37344 reduces in vivo myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by improving AMPK and SIRT1 activity and by suppressing mTOR and p70S6K signaling pathways

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the role and signaling pathways of β3-AR in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. 47 male rats were randomly divided into two main groups to evaluate infarct size and molecular parameters. Rats in...

Role of ACE and ACE-2 in abrogated cardioprotective effect of ischemic preconditioning in ovariectomized rat heart

Abstract Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death in postmenopausal women. The activity of heart ACE increases whereas the activity of ACE-2 decreases after menopause. The present study was designed to investigate the role of ACE and ACE-2 in the abrogated cardioprotective effect of IPC in OV...

Impacto cardiovascular, conducta diagnóstica y terapéutica del feocromocitoma como causa de hipertensión arterial
Cardiovascular impact, diagnostic and therapeutic management of pheochromocytoma as a cause of arterial hypertension

Cambios rev. méd; 20 (2), 2021
INTRODUCCIÓN. Los feocromocitomas son tumores que provienen de las células neuroendócrinas de la médula adrenal y producen alta secreción de catecolaminas. Generan complicaciones cardiovasculares graves que suelen asociarse con crisis hipertensivas. Es importante valorar el impacto cardiovascular de...

Impairment of myocardial functions and arterial stiffness in patients with lichen planus

An. bras. dermatol; 95 (2), 2020
Abstract Background: Lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease. Recent studies have suggested that it is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular comorbidities. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess and compare arterial stiffness and cardiovascular hemodynami...

Use of tissue doppler imaging for the early detection of myocardial dysfunction in patients with the indeterminate form of Chagas disease

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Chagas disease is one of the most common diseases in Latin America and heart involvement is the main cause of death. This study aimed to determine differences in tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) parameters in the assessment left and right ventricular function in patients with the ind...

Evaluation of cardiac autonomic modulation using symbolic dynamics after cardiac transplantation

Abstract Objective: To characterize the behavior of cardiac autonomic modulation in individuals with different times after orthotopic heart transplantation (HTx) using symbolic dynamics analysis. Methods: Sixty patients were evaluated after HTx. We recorded their instantaneous R-R intervals (RRi) by ca...
