Global and regional myocardial function quantification by two-dimensional strain: application in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Dynamic ventricular dyssynchrony: an exercise-echocardiography study.
An ultrasound speckle tracking (two-dimensional strain) analysis of myocardial deformation in professional soccer players compared with healthy subjects and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Fast Track Echo of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Using a Real Pocket‐Ultrasound Device at Bedside
TLDR
Considering its low cost, diagnostic accuracy, and widespread availability, screening for AAA using an ultraportable ultrasound device such as VSCAN by an experienced physician is promising and should be used as an extension of routine physical examination in vascular patients.
Automated function imaging: a new operator-independent strain method for assessing left ventricular function.
Validation of the smallest pocket echoscopic device's diagnostic capabilities in heart investigation.
Dual antiplatelet therapy after myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary intervention: analysis of patient adherence using a French health insurance reimbursement database.
TLDR
The results suggest that while this medication is available to patients, the treatment is often stopped before one year, which may account for what has been reported as "resistance" to antiplatelet therapy described in a subset of patients.
Very low levels of HDL cholesterol and atherosclerosis, a variable relationship – a review of LCAT deficiency
TLDR
The paradoxical finding of severe HDL deficiency and an absence of subclinical atherosclerosis in LCAT-deficient patients is discussed, which has been used to reject the hypothesis that HDL level is important in the protection against Atherosclerosis.
Screening abdominal aorta aneurysm during echocardiography: literature review and proposal for a French nationwide study.
Prevalence of metabolic syndrome after acute coronary syndrome and its prognostic significance.
