Abstract: Recent reports have shown a high incidence of silent left ventricular apical ballooning (LVAB) in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting with potential implications for safe use of inotropes and vasopressors. We examined the incidence,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-11211-2
Abstract: Right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing can lead to progressive left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure (HF), even in patients with normal cardiac structure and function. Our study conducted candidate gene screening and lentivirus transfected neonatal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/echo.13581
Abstract: Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an uncommon variant of HCM characterized by apical hypertrophy without the septal predominance seen in the majority of HCM cases. In 2% of patients, a concomitant left ventricular apical aneurysm… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jce.14385
Abstract: Multiple studies are reported on the left ventricular apex, as it contains, at its very tip, a thin point. Some authors have described it as the 'left ventricular apical thin-point' (LVATP).1-4 In 1977, Bradfield et… read more here.
