13. Right ventricular hypertrophy in a group of coalworkers.
The prevalence of right ventricular hypertrophy was studied in necropsy material from 215 coalworkers, a group which consisted of 115 men with simple or no pneumoconiosis and 100 with progressive massive fibrosis. Right ventricular hypertrophy was considered to be present if the ratio of the weight of the left ventricle plus septum to that of the right ventr

14. Atrial natriuretic factor gene expression in ventricles of rats with spontaneous biventricular hypertrophy.
A subset of Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats that spontaneously develops biventricular hypertrophy (BVH) in response to increased cardiac output was evaluated for ventricular expression of the atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) gene. Normal WKY rats had low levels of left ventricular ANF mRNA and minimally detectable ANF transcripts in the right ventricle. In contrast,

15. Abnormal coronary vascular response to exercise in dogs with severe right ventricular hypertrophy.
Measurements of right coronary artery blood flow, aortic and right ventricular (RV) pressures and heart rate were radiotelemetered during strenuous, spontaneous exercise in normal dogs and dogs with severe RV hypertrophy induced by chronic (5-6 mo) pulmonary artery stenosis. With fixed pulmonic stenosis, dogs with RV hypertrophy exhibited a decrease (P less

16. Effects of exerimental right ventricular hypertrophy on myocardial blood flow in conscious dogs.
The effects of right ventricular hypertrophy on the overall and regional distribution of myocardial blood flow in the absence of an elevated coronary arterial driving pressure were evaluated in 18 concscious dogs subjected to a chronic pressure overload of the right ventricle induced by pulmonary artery constriction. The sustained pressure overload for durat

17. Hyperplasia of myocyte nuclei in long-term cardiac hypertrophy in rats.
In contrast to observations made in the human heart, hyperplasia of myocyte nuclei has never been demonstrated in experimental cardiac hypertrophy. To test the hypothesis that the duration of the mechanical load more than the magnitude of ventricular hypertrophy may be the inciting stimulus for myocyte nuclei hyperplasia, constriction of the pulmonary artery

18. Double outlet right ventricle with subvalvular aortic stenosis.
A case of double outlet right ventricle had progressive muscular subvalvular aortic stenosis unrelated to the ventricular septal defect. Ventricular systolic pressures were identical and higher than aortic, and the gradient was within the right ventricle. Selective angiocardiography showed a hypertrophied subaortic conus obstructing the right ventricular out

19. Hemodynamic versus adrenergic control of cat right ventricular hypertrophy.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether cardiac hypertrophy in response to hemodynamic overloading is a primary result of the increased load or is instead a secondary result of such other factors as concurrent sympathetic activation. To make this distinction, four experiments were done; the major experimental result, cardiac hypertrophy, was asses

20. Postoperative thallium-201 myocardial images. Evidence of regression of right ventricular hypertrophy in man.
Thallium-201 myocardial scintigraphic studies were performed on 24 patients with chronic right ventricular overload before and after surgical correction of haemodynamic overload. The ages of the patients ranged from 20 to 65 years (mean 39 years) at operation. The degree of right ventricular visualisation remained essentially unchanged in an early postoperat

21. Negative right ventricular diastolic pressure after operation for pulmonary valve stenosis: the phenomenon and its relation to volume load and conal contraction.
The phenomenon of negative right ventricular diastolic pressure immediately after operation for relief of isolated pulmonary valve stenosis was investigated in 11 patients. Pressures in the right ventricle and pulmonary artery were measured with a catheter tip micromanometer. One patient had a negative right ventricular diastolic pressure before operation. A

22. Structural study of pulmonary circulation and of heart in total anomalous pulmonary venous return in early infancy.
Quantitative morphometric techniques have been applied to the injected and inflated lung and to the heart in 9 infants with total anomalous pulmonary venous return dying with obstruction to pulmonary venous return. In 5 (mean age at death 55 days) pge 20 days) to an infradiaphragmatic site. Structural changes were present in the pulmonary circulation in all

23. Significance of asymmetrically inverted T wave.
Two consecutive series of patients with a T wave asymmetry ratio of 2.0 or greater have been studied. Patients with bundle-branch block or who were on digoxin or a similar drug were excluded. In 50 of the 69 patients, the heart was examined either by echocardiography or by direct inspection. Sixty-one of the 69 patients had diseases commonly associated with

24. A clinicopathological study of fatal chronic airways obstruction.
A clinicopathological study of 21 patients who died as a result of chronic airways obstruction was carried out. Thirteen patients had been in right ventricular failure for at least one year before death and the other eight patients did not have right ventricular failure. The patients with long-standing right ventricular failure died at a younger age, on aver
