Left ventricular (LV) remodeling has been shown to occur in a relevant proportion of patients
with acute myocardial infarction successfully treated with primary percutaneous coronary …

Congestive heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome that has its basis in an abnormality
of myocardial cell function resulting in impaired ventricular performance, exercise …

An important antecedent to the development of late congestive heart failure is left ventricular
dilatation and remodeling following myocardial infarction, which occurs in 30–40% of acute …

In the first part of this review ('Can we improve myocardial protection during ischaemic
injury?'), which appeared last month in Cardiology [1], we described some aspects of …

Background Viability seems to be important in preventing ventricular remodeling after acute
myocardial infarction (AMI). We investigated the influence of viability, as demonstrated with …

Heart failure has traditionally been considered a clinical syndrome in which the symptoms
define the disorder. Indeed, the clinical syndrome is often designated as ''congestive heart …

Left ventricular remodelling after acute myocardial infarction results in a number of
topographic and functional changes in the left ventricle in response to the abrupt loss of …

Cardiac dysfunction is a progressive process that eventuates in end-stage heart failure. This
progression involves dilatation and hypertrophy of the left ventricle, characterized as left …

BACKGROUND: Ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated
with increased morbidity and mortality. ELITE II study showed that losartan, an angiotensin …

581 Post-Infarction Inflammation and LV Remodeling 2–3 days after the onset of MI, and the
