Sentence examples for a decrease in left from inspiring English sources

Setbp1 (SET binding protein) mutation showed a decrease in left ventricular mass, shortening fraction and heart weight, an increase in wall thickness and disturbances in electrical activity of the heart; aiming this line as a model for a human disease (Schinzel-Giedion Midface Retraction Syndrome).

In contrast, in a study involving 20 patients with septic shock, NAC infusion (150 mg/kg for 15 min followed by continuous infusion) that was initiated within 24 h after the onset of septic shock resulted in a decrease in left ventricular stroke work revealing myocardial depression without a significant impact on MAP at 48 h after treatment initiation [33].

This modification is mainly the consequence of the global heart remodeling in response to chronic hypoxia (i.e. increase in right ventricle mass associated with a decrease in left ventricle mass, table 1), also evidenced and described in vivo by us and others with magnetic resonance imaging [1], [3] or doppler echocardiography [25].

When analysing the haemodynamic data, a difficulty can arise in interpreting the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure increase; whether this change is due to an increase in left ventricular preload that follows the increase in venous return, or to a decrease in left ventricular compliance as a result of the leftward shift of the interventricular septum for right ventricular dilatation [ 16, 22].

Although restricted fluid intake in the first few days of life is associated with a decreased incidence of PDA and BPD, a meta-analysis has shown that fluid restriction may result in a decrease in left ventricular output through a decrease in left ventricular preload that in turn may cause a reduction in systemic blood flow [ 118].

Response was defined as a decrease in left ventricular end-systolic volume ≥ 15%.

A significant decrease in left atrial cross diameter (p < 0.001) occurred during hemodiafiltration which was not observed in the case of hemodialysis (p = 0.11).

In addition, a limited increase in systolic right ventricular ejection fraction and a decrease in pulmonary left ventricle contractility have been found, thus suggesting a dysfunction of both ventricles [ 30].

Contraction was accompanied with a decrease in left-handed helical fibres (handedness relative to the baso-apical direction) in basal, equatorial, and apical sub-epicardium (by 14.0%, 17.3%, 15.8% respectively; p < 0.001), and an increase in right-handed helical fibres of the sub-endocardium (by 11.0%, 12.1% and 16.1%, respectively; p < 0.001).

Besides increase in left ventricular mass adjusted for height, decrease in left ventricular relative wall thickness, and systemic vascular resistance were significant in EP and OD treated groups than placebo and the pre-treatment measurements.

GAL83, a β-subunit of a heterotrimeric SnRK1, showed a decrease in source leaves whereas the abundance of the catalytic α-subunit of SNF remained unaltered.
