  • Basal ventricular septal hypertrophy in systemic hypertension
    Loncaric, Filip; Nunno, Loredana; Mimbrero, Maria; Marciniak, Maciej; Fernandes, João, 1964-; Tirapu, Laia; Fabijanovic, Dora; Sanchis, Laura; Doltra, Adelina; Cikes, Maja; Lamata, Pablo; Bijnens, Bart; Sitges, Marta (Elsevier, 2020)
    Basal septal hypertrophy (BSH) is commonly seen in patients with systemic hypertension and has been associated with increased afterload. The impact of localized hypertrophy on left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) ...
  • Distribution of myocardial work in arterial hypertension: insights from non-invasive left ventricular pressure-strain relations
    Loncaric, Filip; Marciniak, Maciej; Nunno, Loredana; Mimbrero, Maria; Fernandes, João, 1964-; Fabijanovic, Dora; Sanchis, Laura; Doltra, Adelina; Montserrat, Silvia; Cikes, Maja; Lamata, Pablo; Bijnens, Bart; Sitges, Marta (Springer, 2020)
    A index of non-invasive myocardial work (MWI) can account for pressure during the assessment of cardiac function, potentially separating the influence of loading conditions from the influence of the underlying tissue ...
  • Gender influence on the adaptation of atrial performance to training
    Sanchis, Laura; Sanz de la Garza, Maria; Bijnens, Bart; Giraldeau, Geneviève; Grazioli, Gonzalo; Marin, Josefa; Gabrielli, Luigi; Montserrat, Silvia; Sitges, Marta (Taylor & Francis, 2017)
    Background: High-intensity training has been associated with atrial remodelling and arrhythmias in men. Our purpose was to analyse atrial performance in female endurance athletes, compared to male athletes and controls. ...
  • Influence of gender on right ventricle adaptation to endurance exercise: an ultrasound two-dimensional speckle-tracking stress study
    Sanz de la Garza, Maria; Giraldeau, Geneviève; Marin, Josefa; Grazioli, Gonzalo; Esteve, Montserrat; Gabrielli, Luigi; Brambila, Carlos; Sanchis, Laura; Bijnens, Bart; Sitges, Marta (Springer, 2017)
    Background: Characteristic right ventricle (RV) remodelling is related to endurance exercise in male athletes (MAs), but data in female athletes (FAs) are scarce. Our aim was to evaluate sex-related influence on exercise-induced ...
  • Interatrial dyssynchrony may contribute to heart failure symptoms in patients with preserved ejection fraction
    Sanchis, Laura; Vannini, Luca; Gabrielli, Luigi; Duchateau, Nicolas; Falces, Carles; Andrea, Rut; Bijnens, Bart; Sitges, Marta (Wiley, 2015)
    Purpose Heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) is the most prevalent type of HF in nonhospitalized patients, but its pathophysiology remains poorly understood. The aim of our study was to assess the ...
  • Postsystolic thickening is a potential new clinical sign of injured myocardium in marfan syndrome
    Mas Stachurska, Aleksandra; Egea, Gustavo; de Bruin-Bon, Rianne; Rudenick, Paula A.; Sanchis, Laura; Bouma, Berto J.; Mulder, Barbara J.; Bijnens, Bart; Sitges, Marta (Nature Research, 2021)
    The mechanisms leading to cardiac remodeling in Marfan syndrome (MFS) are a matter of debate since it could be either due to structural dysfunction of the myocardial extracellular matrix or to increased afterload caused ...
