To research the value of Autostrain right ventricular (RV) technology in detecting and preventing right ventricular myocardial injury in patients undergoing breast cancer chemotherapy by providing an imaging basis for early identification. To examine the changes in various cardiac function parameters before and after chemotherapy, two-dimensional echocardiography was employed 48 h before chemotherapy, 48 h after the fourth cycle of chemotherapy, and 48 h after the eighth cycle of chemotherapy, respectively. The patients included those with breast cancer who underwent surgery and were primarily administered anthracycline-based chemotherapeutic drugs.

Purpose: We sought to investigate the expression of MALAT1, plasma brain natriuretic peptide, and Tei index in sepsis-induced myocardial injury.
Methods: The current retrospective analysis focused on 146 sepsis patients admitted to our hospital from February 2021 to March 2023. Based on the presence or absence of myocardial injury, the patients were divided into two groups: the sepsis group (n = 80) and the sepsis-induced myocardial injury group (n = 66).
Safety of erythrocyte transfusion over a short period in pediatric patients assessed using cardiac deformation imaging.

Erythrocyte transfusion is a time-consuming process for both health care personnel and patients. This research is aimed at assessing the safety of erythrocyte transfusion over a short period of time in pediatric patients using innovative echocardiographic parameters, such as tissue Doppler imaging and 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography. Twenty pediatric patients with chronic hemolytic anemia were included in the study.

Objective: To assess differences in right ventricular function between the primary angioplasty and pharmacoinvasive groups using echocardiographic parameters.
Method: Observational, retrospective, and cross-sectional study conducted on 111 patients in a cardiac care unit, where ventricular function was evaluated through transthoracic echocardiography.
Results: There were no significant differences in right ventricular function parameters (TAPSE, FAC, S' wave, RV Tei index, right V/A coupling) between both groups.

Although age-related deterioration of the cardiac function is a well-studied area of research, the interventions and their molecular pathways have not yet been fully identified. Since physical activity is a powerful preventive measure against cardiac aging, our study compared the effects of long-term voluntary and forced physical activity with a sedentary group, utilizing an aging rat model characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction that contributes to age-related cardiovascular diseases. Four experimental groups were created: (I) young controls (12-week-old); (II) 18-month-old aged sedentary rats; (III) aged group with free access to running wheels for 6 months; (IV) aged rats subjected to forced physical activity for 6 months.
