Example sentences for: cardiac

How can you use “cardiac” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Many studies have shown that chronic intravenous infusion of norepinephrine is sufficient to cause hypertrophy, and that various forms of hypertrophy are linked to a decrease in either beta-adrenergic receptor density or a decreased responsiveness to beta-adrenergic stimulation [ 46 48 49 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 ] . Barth, for example, showed that norepinephrine infusion induced left ventricular hypertrophy that could be prevented by an adrenergic-receptor blocker [ 58 ] . It has been suggested that ornithine decarboxylase is a link between beta-adrenoreceptors and stimulation of tissue growth factor, which results in hypertrophy [ 64 ] . However, recent studies have focused on alpha-adrenergic reception as a mediator of cardiac hypertrophy [ 35 ] , although some question the role of the alpha-adrenergic receptor as a hypertrophic mediator in vivo [ 34 ] . To date, no published studies of which we are aware have examined alpha-adrenergic reception and the development of cardiac hypertrophy with iron deficiency.

  • An example is VHA's effort to benchmark the success of cardiac surgeries in VHA facilities.

  • Though one of these episodes was associated with cardiac arrest at two years of age, she always responded well to treatment without apparent neurological sequelae.

  • While no one method is superior for all clinical scenarios, until recently measurement of hepatic iron stores - through liver biopsy or magnetic susceptometry - has provided the most quantitative, specific and sensitive method for determining the body iron burden in patients with thalassemia major and was considered the reference method for comparison with other techniques [ 2 4 ] . In the future, the newer advanced magnetic-resonance techniques, which allow for the assessment of both liver and cardiac iron, might provide an even more accurate assessment of total body iron [ 5 ] . Measurement of the magnitude of iron loading is useful in evaluating the effectiveness of the chelating agent, calibrating patient-specific treatment, and, in clinical research, as a determinant of clinical outcome.

  • Folders included the case report form and ancillary data forms, discharge summaries, cardiac enzyme results, ECGs, and a data worksheet that summarised clinical events, procedures, and cardiac enzyme information.
