The integrated rate equation for reactions with stoichiometry A----P + Q is: e0t = -Cf . ln(1-delta P/A0) + C1 delta P + 1/2C2(delta P)2 where the coefficients C are linear or quadratic functions of the kinetic constants and the initial substrate and product concentrations. I have used the 21 progress curves described in the accompanying paper [Cox & Boeker (1987) Biochem. J. 245, 59-65] to develop computer-based analytical and statistical techniques for extracting kinetic constants by fitting this equation. The coefficients C were calculated by an unweighted non-linear regression: first approximations were obtained from a multiple regression of t on delta P and were refined by the Gauss-Newton method. The procedure converged in six iterations or less. The bias in the coefficients C was estimated by four methods and did not appear to be significant. The residuals in the progress curves appear to be normally distributed and do not correlate with the amount of product produced. Variances for Cf, C1 and C2 were estimated by four resampling procedures, which gave essentially identical results, and by matrix inversion, which came close to the others. The reliability of C2 can also be estimated by using an analysis-of-variance method that does not require resampling. The final kinetic constants were calculated by standard multiple regression, weighting each coefficient according to its variance. The weighted residuals from this procedure were normally distributed. 相似文献

Among the various cardiac contractility parameters, left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) and maximum dP/dt (dP/dt(max)) are the simplest and most used. However, these parameters are often reported together, and it is not clear if they are complementary or redundant. We sought to compare the discriminative value of EF and dP/dt(max) in assessing systolic dysfunction after myocardial infarction (MI) in swine. A total of 220 measurements were obtained. All measurements included LV volumes and EF analysis by left ventriculography, invasive ventricular pressure tracings, and echocardiography. Baseline measurements were performed in 132 pigs, and 88 measurements were obtained at different time points after MI creation. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves to distinguish the presence or absence of an MI revealed a good predictive value for EF [area under the curve (AUC): 0.998] but not by dP/dt(max) (AUC: 0.69, P < 0.001 vs. EF). Dividing dP/dt(max) by LV end-diastolic pressure and heart rate (HR) significantly increased the AUC to 0.87 (P < 0.001 vs. dP/dt(max) and P < 0.001 vs. EF). In na?ve pigs, the coefficient of variation of dP/dt(max) was twice than that of EF (22.5% vs. 9.5%, respectively). Furthermore, in n = 19 pigs, dP/dt(max) increased after MI. However, echocardiographic strain analysis of 23 pigs with EF ranging only from 36% to 40% after MI revealed significant correlations between dP/dt(max) and strain parameters in the noninfarcted area (circumferential strain: r = 0.42, P = 0.05; radial strain: r = 0.71, P < 0.001). In conclusion, EF is a more accurate measure of systolic dysfunction than dP/dt(max) in a swine model of MI. Despite the variability of dP/dt(max) both in na?ve pigs and after MI, it may sensitively reflect the small changes of myocardial contractility. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) has concentration-dependent biphasic myocardial contractile effects. We tested the hypothesis, in isolated rat hearts, that NO cardiostimulation is primarily non-cGMP dependent. Infusion of 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1, 10(-5) M), which may participate in S-nitrosylation (S-NO) via peroxynitrite formation, increased the rate of left ventricular pressure rise (+dP/dt; 19 +/- 4%, P < 0.001, n = 11) without increasing effluent cGMP or cAMP. Superoxide dismutase (SOD; 150 U/ml) blocked SIN-1 cardiostimulation and led to cGMP elaboration. Sodium nitroprusside (10(-10)-10(-7) M), an iron nitrosyl compound, did not augment +dP/dt but increased cGMP approximately eightfold (P < 0.001), whereas diethylamine/NO (DEA/NO; 10(-7) M), a spontaneous NO. donor, increased +dP/dt (5 +/- 2%, P < 0.05, n = 6) without augmenting cGMP. SIN-1 and DEA/NO +dP/dt increase persisted despite guanylyl cyclase inhibition with 1H-(1,2,4)oxadiazolo-(4,3,-a)quinoxalin-1-one (10(-5) M, P < 0.05 for both donors), suggesting a cGMP-independent mechanism. Glutathione (5 x 10(-4) M, n = 15) prevented SIN-1 cardiostimulation, suggesting S-NO formation. SIN-1 also produced SOD-inhibitable cardiostimulation in vivo in mice. Thus peroxynitrite and NO donors can stimulate myocardial contractility independently of guanylyl cyclase activation, suggesting a role for S-NO reactions in NO/peroxynitrite-positive inotropic effects in intact hearts. 相似文献

Although slightly affected by alterations in preload, the maximum first derivative of left ventricular pressure with respect to time, Max(dP/dt), is widely regarded as a simple and convenient index of cardiac contractility for clinical use. The feasibility of noninvasive, hence repeatable, measurement of Max(dP/dt) will certainly lead to re-evaluation of its usefulness. Max(dP/dt) is given by the following equation: Max(dP/dt) = rho c Max(du/dt), where rho is the blood density, c the pulse wave velocity, and mu the flow velocity in the aorta. This equation has been previously validated in animal experiments and has now been applied to the clinical setting for the first time. In 20 patients without aortic stenosis, left ventricular pressure was measured with a catheter-tip micromanometer, aortic ejection flow velocity was measured by Doppler echocardiography, and pulse wave velocity by mechanocardiography or Doppler echocardiography. Then, delta c Max (du/dt was calculated from the measured data and compared with measured Max (dP/dt). A significant positive correlation was found between them (rho c Max (du/dt) = 0.96 x Max (dP/dt) + 6.52, r = 0.83, p < 0.001). In 11 patients with hypertension, rho c Max (du/dt) was obtained before and after long-term (average 13.1 months) treatment with antihypertensive drugs. In spite of the expected reduction in blood pressure and the regression of left ventricular mass, rho c Max (du/dt) remaioned unchanged. In 9 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, the effects of beta 1-agonist were tested at the beginning of therapy (30 mg/day denopamine) and 6 months later. The increase in rho c Max (du/dt) observed 1 hour after oral administration of he drug had not changed significantly 6 months later. We conclude that the index rho c Max (du/dt), is useful in assessing the contractile state of the left ventricle noninvasively. 相似文献

To determine whether endogenous opiates have a role in circulatory regulation during mild to moderate exercise, 11 chronically instrumented dogs were exercised on a treadmill up a 6% incline at 2.5 and 5.0 mph, each for 20 min, after treatment with either the opiate receptor antagonist naloxone (1 mg/kg bolus and 20 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 infusion) or normal saline. Naloxone increased plasma beta-endorphin and adrenocorticotropic hormone at rest but had no effect on resting heart rate, aortic pressure, cardiac output, left ventricular time derivative of pressure (dP/dt) and ratio of dP/dt at a developed pressure of 50 mmHg and the developed pressure (dP/dt/P), or plasma catecholamines. Plasma beta-endorphin and adrenocorticotropic hormone increased during exercise. In addition, graded treadmill exercise produced proportional increases in heart rate, cardiac output, aortic pressure, left ventricular dP/dt and dP/dt/P, and blood flow to exercising muscles, right and left ventricular myocardium, and adrenal glands. However, there were no differences in the circulatory responses to exercise between animals receiving naloxone and normal saline. Thus the endogenous opiate system probably does not play an important role in regulating the systemic hemodynamic and blood flow responses to mild and moderate exercise. 相似文献

Temporary sequential biventricular pacing (BiVP) is a promising treatment for postoperative cardiac dysfunction, but the mechanism for improvement in right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is not understood. In the present study, cardiac output (CO) was optimized by sequential BiVP in six anesthetized, open-chest pigs during control and acute RV pressure overload (RVPO). Ventricular contractility was assessed by the maximum rate of increase of ventricular pressure (dP/dt(max)). Mechanical interventricular synchrony was measured by the area of the normalized RV-left ventricular (LV) pressure diagram (A(PP)). Positive A(PP) indicates RV pressure preceding LV pressure, whereas zero indicates complete synchrony. In the control state, CO was maximized with nearly simultaneous stimulation of the RV and LV, which increased RV (P = 0.006) and LV dP/dt(max) (P = 0.002). During RVPO, CO was maximized with RV-first pacing, which increased RV dP/dt(max) (P = 0.007), but did not affect LV dP/dt(max), and decreased the left-to-right, end-diastolic pressure gradient (P = 0.023). Percent increase of RV dP/dt(max) was greater than LV dP/dt(max) (P = 0.014). There were no increases in end-diastolic pressure to account for increases in dP/dt(max). In control and RVPO, RV dP/dt(max) was linearly related to A(PP) (r = 0.779, P < 0.001). The relation of CO to A(PP) was curvilinear, with a peak in CO with positive A(PP) in the control state (P = 0.004) and with A(PP) approaching zero during RVPO (P = 0.001). These observations imply that, in our model, BiVP optimization improves CO by augmenting RV contractility. This is mediated by changes in mechanical interventricular synchrony. Afterload increases during RVPO exaggerate this effect, making CO critically dependent on simultaneous pressure generation in the RV and LV, with support of RV contractility by transmission of LV pressure across the interventricular septum. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to assess the heart function, by the in vivo catheterization technique, of healthy male and female Sprague-Dawley rats fed different conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers, (cis-9, trans-11 (c9,t11) and trans-10, cis-12 (t10,c12)) individually and in combination (50:50 mix as triglyceride or fatty acids) from 4 to 20 weeks of age. Whereas the triglyceride form of the CLA isomer mix lowered the heart rate, the rate of contraction (+dP/dt) and rate of relaxation (-dP/dt), systolic and diastolic pressures, mean arterial pressure, and the left ventricular systolic pressure were higher in male rats as compared with all the other dietary groups. In contrast, there were no significant effects in the cardiac function of the female rats in response to the CLA isomer mix in triglyceride form. Whereas the heart rate, +dP/dt, and left ventricular systolic pressure were lower in male rats fed the t10,c12 CLA isomer alone, the heart rate of the female rats was higher, but the systolic pressure, +dP/dt, and mean arterial pressure were lower compared with the control group. Also, the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was specifically higher in the female rats in response to free fatty acids-containing CLA mix. Furthermore, an additive effect of the free fatty acids-containing CLA mix was seen in the +dP/dt and -dP/dt of female rats compared with the control group. These results indicate that CLA isomers exert differential effects on heart function and suggest the need for a complete evaluation of the benefits, interactions, and potential side effects of each isomer. 相似文献

Factors known to influence left ventricular contractility include preload, afterload, circulating catecholamine concentration, efferent sympathetic discharge, and heart rate. Heart rate influences have been primarily determined in the dog, whereas the influence of heart rate in smaller mammals has not been determined. Eight pentobarbital-anesthetized rabbits were instrumented to measure electrocardiogram, heart rate, left ventricular pressure, end-diastolic pressure, dP/dt, and mean and pulsatile aortic pressures. Systematic bradycardia was induced by stimulating the peripheral end of the sectioned right vagus nerve. Between 293 and 235 beats/min, there was no change in (dP/dt)max as heart rate was decreased. Below this range there was a direct relationship between (dP/dt)max and heart rate. Preload remained unchanged down to 132 beats/min. There was a small but significant decrease in afterload (0.09 mmHg X beat-1 X min-1; 1 mmHg = 133.32 Pa) throughout the decrease in heart rate. Infusion of propranolol (2.0 mg/kg) produced no marked change in the heart rate - (dP/dt)max relationship, although both resting heart rate and (dP/dt)max were reduced. This study demonstrates that (dP/dt)max is not influenced by changes in heart rate above 235 beats/min in the pentobarbital-anesthetized rabbit. These results differ from findings in other animals, and demonstrate that species and heart rate ranges must be considered when drawing conclusions regarding (dP/dt)max as a reliable index of contractility. 相似文献

In 17 canine heart-lung preparations the dependence of frequency potentiation of the right and left ventricular myocardium on the basic inotropic state of the heart was investigated. The effect of unipolar stimulation of the right atrium on dP/dt max in both ventricles was measured. The aortic pressure was maintained constant. Shortly after isolation of the heart, a stepwise increase of rate from 140 to 200 beats/min only had a very weak influence on left ventricular dP/dt max. With deterioration of the myocardium the frequency potentiation of dP/dt max increased considerably. End-diastolic pressure regularly decreased with rising cardiac frequency. Since the real positive inotropic effect is masked by the concomitant fall in diastolic loading, the end-diastolic pressure was maintained constant in a second group of 8 hearts during rate variation. The most pronounced inotropic effect was now found shortly after isolation of the heart. A rate increase of 30 beats/min resulted in a 20% rise of dP/dt max. The frequency potentiation decreased with deterioration of the heart resulting in a 12% dP/dt max increase at an estimated inotropic state of 50% of control. When the contractile state of the heart was improved above the control state by calcium application the frequency potentiation of the myocardium decreased. In the right ventricle similar results were obtained except for the fact that no significant correlation between the steepness of the frequency characteristics and the contractile state of the heart could be found when the end-diastolic pressure was kept constant. 相似文献

Dog hearts were prepared in situ so that heart rate (HR), left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and mean aortic pressure (MAP) could be controlled separately during computation of left ventricular dP/dt max and external stroke work (SW). Progressive increases in HR consistently raised dP/dt max over a wide range, and consistently lowered SW except at low rates. Progressive increases in LVEDP or MAP consistently raised both dP/dt max and SW. Infusion of noradrenaline consistently raided both dP/dt max and SW, except at very high HR when only dP/dt max was consistently raised. Our results lead us to question the validity of equating changes in pre-ejection measurements with changes in performance of the heart as a pump under abnormal conditions and in the assessment of inotropic agents. 相似文献

To determine whether the increase in cardiac output during mild to moderate exercise is related to an increase in the tissue redox potential, we compared the responses of cardiac output, total body oxygen consumption, and arterial blood lactate-to-pyruvate ratio (a measure of NADH/NAD) to treadmill exercise between dogs treated with normal saline and those treated with a hydrogen acceptor, new methylene blue. Normal saline was infused into the left atrium in the first group of dogs at a rate of 0.38 ml/min throughout the treadmill exercise (2.5 mph and 5.0 mph on a 6% incline, each for 20 min). In the second group, methylene blue was administered as a loading dose (4 mg/kg) before exercise, followed by a continuous infusion (0.15 mg X kg-1 X min-1) throughout exercise. A similar infusion of methylene blue was given to a third group of dogs without exercise; it reduced the arterial lactate-to-pyruvate ratio from 6.70 +/- 0.35 to 4.12 +/- 0.27 but had no or little effects on cardiac output, heart rate, arterial pressure, and left ventricular dP/dt and (dP/dt)/P. Treadmill exercise doubled cardiac output and increased total body O2 consumption three- to fourfold in the first two groups but increased arterial blood lactate-to-pyruvate ratio only in group 1 (6.0 +/- 0.54 to 9.97 +/- 0.91). The relationship between cardiac output and total body O2 consumption was unaffected by the simultaneous administration of methylene blue during exercise. Groups 1 and 2 also did not differ in their heart rate, left ventricular dP/dt and (dP/dt)/P, and plasma catecholamine responses to exercise.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Organ blood flow and cardiac contractility in anaesthetized cats at 5 bar (500 kPa) ambient pressure
Jan Risberg Ingvald Tyssebotn 《European journal of applied physiology and occupational physiology》1992,64(5):389-394
Previous in vivo and in vitro experiments have demonstrated increased cardiac contractility and increased total myocardial blood flow (Qmyocardial) when rats were exposed to normoxic 5-bar (500 kPa) ambient pressure. In the present study, regional blood flow was measured using the microsphere method on nine anaesthetized cats at surface and normoxic 5-bar (500 kPa) ambient pressure. Left ventricular pressure (LVP) and cardiac contractility, measured as peak left ventricular +dP/dt and -dP/dt were measured in six of the cats. Arterial pressure, heart rate and cardiac output remained unchanged after compression, but total Qmyocardial increased by 29% (P less than 0.01) and cerebral blood flow increased by 66% (P less than 0.05). At the same time +dP/dt and -dP/dt was increased by 83% and 102%, respectively (P less than 0.01), while LVP was enhanced by 14% (P less than 0.05). Except for a moderate decrease in partial pressure of oxygen, acid base status in arterial blood remained unchanged. The results indicate that the effects of increased ambient pressure on the heart are general physiological phenomena, which are not only limited to the laboratory rat. 相似文献

The steady state rate equations of transfer reactions catalysed by enzymes that follow the serine proteinase reaction mechanism in their hydrolysis reactions, have been solved and integrated. The integrated equations allow for calculations of maximal yields of product and of the time, tmax, at which that yield is present in a given reaction mixture. These important quantities have not been dealt with in previous theoretical studies of such systems. 相似文献

Concern about the effects of anesthesia on physiological measurements led us to develop methodology to assess left ventricular (LV) pressure in conscious mice. Polyethylene-50 tubing filled with heparinized saline was implanted in the LV cavity through its apex via an abdominal approach and exteriorized to the back of the animal. This surgery was done under anesthesia with either an intraperitoneal injection of ketamine (80 mg/kg) and xylazine (5 mg/kg) (K+X) in 11 mice or isoflurane (ISF; 1.5 vol%) by inhalation in 14 mice. Postoperatively, mice were trained daily to lie quietly head first in a plastic cone. LV pressure, the first derivative of LV pressure (dP/dt), and heart rate (HR) in the conscious state were compared between the two groups at 3 days and 1 wk after recovery from surgery using a 1.4-Fr Millar catheter inserted into the LV through the tubing, with the mice lying quietly in the plastic cone. Acutely during anesthesia, K+X decreased HR (from 698 to 298 beats/min), LV systolic pressure (from 107 to 65 mmHg), and maximal dP/dt (dP/dt(max)) (from 15,724 to 4,445 mmHg/s), all P < 0.01. Similar but less marked negative chronotropic and inotropic effects were seen with ISF. HR and dP/dt(max) were decreased significantly in K+X mice 3 days after surgery compared with those anesthetized with ISF (655 vs. 711 beats/min, P < 0.05; 14,448 vs. 18,048 mmHg/s, P < 0.001) but increased to the same level as in ISF mice 1 wk after surgery. In ISF mice, recovery of function occurred rapidly and there were no differences in LV variables between 3 days and 1 wk. LV pressure and dP/dt can be measured in conscious mice with a micromanometer catheter inserted through tubing implanted permanently in the LV apex. Anesthesia with either K+X or, to a lesser extent, ISF, depressed LV function acutely. This depression of function persisted for 3 days after surgery with K+X (but not ISF) and did not recover completely until 1 wk postanesthesia. 相似文献

Factors were examined which altered the propagation of aortic dissections in canine aortas. Thoracic aortas were removed from sacrificed dogs from the distal end of the arch to the diaphragm. An intimal tear was created at the proximal end of the aorta. The dissection was propagated using a pulsatile pressure system with no flow. The aorta was perfused with a dilute black paint solution, which allowed both video monitoring of the extension of the dissection and measurement of the dissection rate. The dependence of the dissection rate on the variables peak pressure, (dP/dt)max and intimal tear depth was examined. The dissection rate was found to be dependent on (dP/dt)max (p less than 0.005) and the intimal tear depth, expressed as a percentage of wall thickness (p less than 0.01), but not on the peak pressure or intimal tear length. The equation relating the significant variables was log (dissection rate) = (-0.034) X % tear depth +(1.89 +/- 0.56) X (dP/dt)max -(4.3 +/- 1.8); r = 78. Thus a higher (dP/dt)max was associated with a more rapid dissection rate and a deeper intimal tear was associated with a slower dissection rate. 相似文献

Cardiac output function curves were used to investigate the effects of carbon monoxide on the heart in the conscious dog. Each dog was briefly exposed to 1,500 ppm carbon monoxide through a permanent tracheostomy. Immediately upon attaining either 10%, 20%, or 30% HbCO a rapid infusion of Ringer's lactate was given to test cardiac capabilities. The combined effects of carbon monoxide and infusion produced significant increases in cardiac output, heart rate, mean left ventricular pressure, dP/dt and (dP/dt)/IP. Cardiac output was sufficient to prevent peripheral hypoxia at all HbCO levels; however, there was evidence of impending cardiac depression beginning at 20% HbCO. 相似文献

These experiments examined the independent effects of short-term exercise and heat stress on myocardial responses during in vivo ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Female Sprague-Dawley rats (4 mo old) were randomly assigned to one of four experimental groups: 1) control, 2) 3 consecutive days of treadmill exercise [60 min/day at 60-70% maximal O2 uptake (VO2 max)], 3) 5 consecutive days of treadmill exercise (60 min/day at 60-70% VO2 max), and 4) whole body heat stress (15 min at 42 degrees C). Twenty-four hours after heat stress or exercise, animals were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated, and the chest was opened by thoracotomy. Coronary occlusion was maintained for 30-min followed by a 30-min period of reperfusion. Compared with control, both heat-stressed animals and exercised animals (3 and 5 days) maintained higher (P < 0.05) left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), maximum rate of left ventricular pressure development (+dP/dt), and maximum rate of left ventricular pressure decline (-dP/dt) at all measurement periods during both ischemia and reperfusion. No differences existed between heat-stressed and exercise groups in LVDP, +dP/dt, and -dP/dt at any time during ischemia or reperfusion. Both heat stress and exercise resulted in an increase (P < 0.05) in the relative levels of left ventricular heat shock protein 72 (HSP72). Furthermore, exercise (3 and 5 days) increased (P < 0.05) myocardial glutathione levels and manganese superoxide dismutase activity. These data indicate that 3-5 consecutive days of exercise improves myocardial contractile performance during in vivo I/R and that this exercise-induced myocardial protection is associated with an increase in both myocardial HSP72 and cardiac antioxidant defenses. 相似文献

Summary Under chemolithoautotrophic growth conditions with the organism Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 the exponential growth phase is characterized by two different growth rates, each associated with different specific rates of ammonium consumption. On the basis of the analytical determination of Poly--hydroxybutyric acid (PHB), it can be conclusively shown that PHB is synthesized even during the exponential growth phase at a specific rate proportional to the specific growth rates of total biomass. After complete consumption of ammonium, the increase of biomass is exclusively due to PHB synthesis, whereas protein and rest biomass (cell dry weight minus PHB) remain constant. After an extended period of fermentation, the PHB content reaches a saturation value. The transient phase between the growth and the storage phase is very short in comparison to the duration of the whole fermentation. In the case of Alcaligenes eutrophus, strain H 16, high concentrations of dissolved oxygen strongly influence growth as well as PHB synthesis.Abbrevations

From Sandow's excitation-contraction coupling hypothesis and reasonable assumptions I obtain the kinetics of the active state, (AS), and thence, via empirical equations for series elastic and contractile components for frog sartorius around 20 degrees C, the tension, P, and dP/dt vs. time. Assumptions: (a) Rate of Ca(+2) injection is proportional to the Ca gradient, and a permeability, which increases from zero to a limit as the membrane potential rises above a threshold. (b) Released Ca(+2) is bound by the "muscle machinery," M, and removed by a carrier pump. (c) The AS is proportional to the concentration of Ca-M. The kinetic pattern depends mainly upon the mechanism; the time scale was fixed by the amount of Ca(+2) injected. Depending upon the time course and repetition pattern chosen for the action potential, I obtain P and dP/dt, that agree well with experiment, for normal, potentiated, and summed twitches, tetani, and tension redevelopment after a quick release. Upon excitation the AS rises rapidly to 88%, declines thereafter in twitches, but rises slowly in unfused fashion toward 100% in tetani. The knee in dP/dt marks the first maximum in the AS. Potentiators should raise it in tetani as well as in twitches. Velocity and dP/dt show a much higher fusion frequency than P. The model integrates diverse observations. It may be tested by measuring tension and intramyofibrillar Ca(+2) under controlled depolarization. 相似文献

The rat infarct model is widely used in heart failure research, but few echocardiographic indexes of left ventricular (LV) function are validated in this model. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to validate a 13-segment LV wall motion score index (WMSI) and the myocardial performance index (MPI) in infarcted rats. Twenty-nine male Wistar rats underwent left coronary artery ligation or sham operation and were evaluated with two-dimensional and Doppler flow echocardiography 8 wk later. After echocardiography, invasive indexes were obtained using a high-fidelity catheter. WMSI and MPI were correlated with the invasive and noninvasive measurements of LV function. WMSI and MPI significantly correlated directly with end-diastolic pressure (r=0.72 and 0.42 for WMSI and MPI, respectively) and the time constant of isovolumic relaxation (r=0.68 and 0.48) and inversely with peak rate of rise of LV pressure (+dP/dt; r=-0.68 and -0.50), peak rate of decline in LV pressure (r=-0.57 and -0.44), LV developed pressure (r=-0.58 and -0.42), area fractional shortening (r=-0.85 and -0.53), and cardiac index (r=-0.74 and -0.74). Stepwise linear regression analyses revealed that LV end-diastolic pressure, +dP/dt, area fractional shortening, and cardiac index were independent determinants of WMSI (r=0.994) and that cardiac index and +dP/dt were independent determinants of MPI (r=0.781). We conclude that the 13-segment WMSI and MPI are reproducible and correlate strongly with established echocardiographic and invasive indexes of systolic and diastolic function. These findings support the use of WMSI and MPI as indexes of global LV function in the rat infarction model of heart failure. 相似文献
