Abstract Background Tricuspid valve (TV) leaflet identification by two-dimensional (2D) transesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is complex due to the considerable variability in visualized leaflets. While three-dimensional (3D) imaging can easily overcome this problem acquiring whole anatomy, overall image quality often suboptimal and technique somewhat unsuitable for real-time monitoring during interventional procedures like TriClip implantation. Using information derived from both 2D...
Abstract Aims In acute heart failure (AHF), kidney congestion is basic to treatment and prognosis. Its aetiology manifold quite unexplored in details mainly regarding the right pulmonary circulation (Pc) coupling. We investigated interrelationship by Doppler renal flow pattern, atrial dynamics, ventricular (RV) function Pc coupling AHF. Methods results 119 AHF patients, echocardiographic data were analysed. Univariate multivariate regression models performed define determinants of a...
Aims and Background The real practice of breast cancer diagnosis treatment is often very different from guideline recommendations. Screening programs should minimize deviations “best practice”. aim the study was to compare cases detected by screening with that were not part public program, analyzing diagnostic pathways first suspected problem therapeutic intervention for cancer. Methods We interviewed a random sample 268 women aged 49–70 years in three Italian regions (Lazio, Tuscany,...
1500 Background: Primary prevention trials have shown that tamoxifen (T) lowers ER+ breast cancer (BC) incidence, but adverse events are a barrier to its broad use. The Italian Tamoxifen Prevention Trial showed positive risk/benefit ratio in the subgroup of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) users T arm, with fewer BC and no cardiovascular disease (CVD) excess. In dose-ranging study, 5 mg/day favorable biomarker modulation HRT users. We conducted multicentre, phase III, trial current or de...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background —Tricuspid valve (TV) leaflet identification by two-dimensional (2D) transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is complex due to the high variability combinations leaflets visualized in each view. While three-dimensional (3D) imaging can easily overcome this problem acquiring whole anatomy, overall image quality often suboptimal and technique somewhat unsuitable for real-time monitoring during interventional procedures...
Introduction: The heart-kidney interaction in heart failure (HF) is a matter of special interest, especially due to its strong prognostic significance. search for reliable, non-invasive parameter with high pathophysiological and impact evaluate HF-related renal congestion remains attractive. Doppler evaluation intra-renal venous flow (IRVF) has been recently employed HF patients, spectrum findings ranging from normal continuous monophasic discontinuous one, indicative low degrees congestion,...
