Long-term effect of bosentan in pulmonary hypertension associated with complex ...

Background: Bosentan is recommended for symptomatic patients with Eisenmenger syndrome due to simple congenital lesions such as atrial and ventricular septal defects (VSD). However, its long-term efficacy and safety in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) associated with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) is unknown. Objectives: We examined the short- and long-term effects and safety profile ...

Left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony in patients with impaired left ventric...

Introduction: Gated SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has been used to quantify mechanical dyssynchrony. Mechanical dyssynchrony appears to be related to response to cardiac resynchronization therapy. Objective: To evaluate the presence and predictors of mechanical dyssynchrony in patients with impaired left ventricular function (LVEF) ≤50%. Methods: The study included 143 consecutive patients referred f...
