Tissue oxygenation response to adenosine stress in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is blunted compared to athletes and normals. Myocardial tissue hypoxia during stress in HCM may potentially contribute to the increased exercise related deaths in this condition.
By cardiac MRI we investigated the relationship of resting myocardial blood flow (MBF) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients to important parameters of disease. MBF was quantified on pixel-by-pixel basis in 804 segments in 70 patients. Relative MBF negatively correlated with left-ventricular
This study investigated the correlation between changes in hepatic and systemic hemodynamics and femoral blood flow (FBF), measured by dual-beam pulsed wave Doppler, in 58 portal hypertensive patients receiving propranolol(O.15 mg/Kg intravenously; n = 44) or placebo (n = 14) under double-blind cond
