    • Atrial Function Assessed by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography Is a Good Predictor of Postoperative Atrial ... 
      Verdejo, Hugo E.; Becerra, Elia; Zalaquett Sepúlveda, Ricardo; Campo, Andrea del; García Nannig, Lorena; Troncoso Cotal, Rodrigo; Chiong Lay, Mario; Marín, Arnaldo; Castro, Pablo F.; Lavandero González, Sergio; Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Corbalán, Ramón (Wiley & Sons, 2016)
      ObjectiveAdvanced age is an independent predictor of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. We evaluated whether left atrial (LA) dysfunction assessed by strain ...
    • Increased rho-kinase activity in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy 
      Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Winter, José L.; Godoy, Iván; McNab, Paul; Padilla, Ivonne; Córdova, Samuel; Rigotti, Paola; Novoa, Ulises; Mora, Italo; García Nannig, Lorena; Ocaranza, María P.; Jalil Milad, Jorge (Oxford University Press, 2014)
      background There is experimental evidence on the role of Rho-kinase (ROCK) activation in cardiac hypertrophy but no information on its role in human hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). We hypothesized that ...
    • Inflamación y disfunción endotelial en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca crónica 
      Greig, Douglas; Castro, Pablo; Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Miranda, Rodrigo; Verdejo, Hugo; Alcaíno Gálvez, Hernán Alejandro; Bustos, Carlos; Chiong Lay, Mario; Godoy, Iván; Mellado, Rose Marie; García Nannig, Lorena; Salas, Daniela; Vivar Sánchez, Raúl; Vukasovic Ramírez, José Luis; Concepción, Roberto; Díaz Araya, Guillermo (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2008-06)
      Background: In chronic heart failure (CHF), endothelial dysfunction (ED) is a consequence of an imbalance of vascular tone regulating substances. The relationship between ED and inflammation has not been fully investigated. ...
    • Metabolismo energético del corazón y sus proyecciones en el tratamiento de la insuficiencia cardíaca 
      Castro, Pablo; Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Verdejo, Hugo; Greig, Douglas; Mellado, Rose Marie; Concepción, Roberto; Sepúlveda Morales, Luis; Vukasovic Ramírez, José Luis; García Nannig, Lorena; Pizarro, Marcela; Pivet, Deisy; Carrillo, Constanza; Tapia, Fabiola; Navarro, Mario; Troncoso, Rodrigo; Baraona, Fernando; Llevaneras, Silvana; Hernández, Claudia; Godoy, Iván; Jalil Milad, Jorge; Quintana, Juan Carlos; Orellana, Pilar; Chiong Lay, Mario; Lavandero González, Sergio (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2010-08)
      It is unknown why heart failure progresses even when patients are treated with the best therapy available. Evidences suggest that heart failure progression is due to loss of neurohumoral blockade in advanced stages of the ...
    • Xanthine-oxidase inhibitors and statins in chronic heart failure: Effects on vascular and functional parameters 
      Greig, Douglas; Alcaíno Gálvez, Hernán Alejandro; Castro Gálvez, Pablo; García Nannig, Lorena; Verdejo, Hugo E.; Navarro, Mario; López, Rafael; Mellado, Rose Marie; Tapia Mamani, Fabiola Karina; Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Nogerol, Camilo; Chiong Lay, Mario; Godoy, Iván; Lavandero González, Sergio (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2011-04)
      Increased oxidative stress in heart failure (HF) leads to inflammation and endothelial dysfunction (ED). Both statins and allopurinol have known anti-oxidant properties, but their utility in HF has not been fully assessed.
