Heart failure and liver disease: cardiohepatic interactions
A Xanthopoulos, RC Starling, T Kitai, F Triposkiadis - JACC: Heart Failure, 2019 - jacc.org
Heart failure (HF) and liver disease often co-exist. This is because systemic disorders and
diseases affect both organs (alcohol abuse, drugs, inflammation, autoimmunity, infections) …

[HTML][HTML] Longitudinal strain reflects ventriculoarterial coupling rather than mere contractility in rat models of hemodynamic overload–induced heart failure
Background Longitudinal strain (LS) is a sensitive marker of systolic function. Recent
findings suggest that both myocardial contractility and loading conditions determine LS. The …
