A Pilot Study Assessing Left Ventricle Diastolic Function in the Parasternal Long-axis View by Mümin Murat Yazici, Nurullah Parça, Enes Hamdioğlu, Meryem Kaçan, Özcan Yavas¸i, Özlem Bilir

“…Patients included in the study underwent spectral Doppler measurements in the apical four-chamber (A4C) view followed by M-mode measurements in the PSLA view. We then compared the measurements. Results: The correlation between the early diastolic velocity of the mitral inflow to the late diastolic velocity (E/A) ratio in spectral Doppler measurements and the EPSS/ A-point septal separation (APSS) ratio in M-mode was strong (correlation coefficient 0.677, P = 0.001). …”

HACE1 protects against myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury via inhibition of mitochondrial fission in mice by Bang-Xia Liu, Juan Zheng, Zhan-Wei Tang, Lei Gao, Meng Wang, Ying Sun, Chen Chen, Heng-Chen Yao

“…The HACE1 knockout group exhibited higher levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), greater mitochondrial fission, and dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), leading to more apoptosis and severe cardiac dysfunction compared to the wild-type I/R group(P < 0.05). On the other hand, HACE1 knockout further reduced superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the myocardium(P < 0.05), further supporting the findings. …”
