Assessment of Fetal Cardiac Function in Mild Preeclampsia
(SPRINGER, 2013)
This study investigated cardiac function in 65 fetuses of mildly preeclamptic mothers and 55 fetuses of healthy mothers at 26-40 weeks of gestation. Fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction were excluded. Cardiac ...
What Is the Safe Approach for Neonatal Hypernatremic Dehydration? A Retrospective Study From a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2013)

Bradycardia Seen In Children With Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2013)
Introduction: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonotic viral disease with a high mortality rate. In clinical practice, we observed bradycardia in some pediatric patients with CCHF during the clinical course. ...
Evaluation of morphological characteristics of septal rims affecting successful transcatheter atrial septal defect closure in children and adults
(TERMEDIA PUBLISHING HOUSE LTD, 2013)
Introduction: Determining other echocardiographic predictors along with the measured atrial septal defect (ASD) size and evaluating the closure together with these predictors would increase the chance of success for ...
Early Subclinical Left-Ventricular Dysfunction in Obese Nonhypertensive Children: A Tissue Doppler Imaging Study
(SPRINGER, 2013)
A direct effect of obesity on myocardial function has not been not well established. Our aim was to investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) on ...
Rhythm and Conduction Analysis of Patients With Acute Rheumatic Fever
(SPRINGER, 2013)

(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013)
Background: There is no available published information about the atrial electromechanical coupling time (AEMCT) in patients with atrial septal defect (ASD). The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between ...
Effects of carvedilol therapy on cardiac autonomic control, QT dispersion, and ventricular arrhythmias in children with dilated cardiomyopathy
(INT SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE, INC, 2013)
Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of carvedilol therapy on autonomic control of the heart and QT-interval dispersion (QTd) among children with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) whose ...
