Elevated pulmonary artery pressure by Doppler echocardiography predicts hospitalization for heart failure and mortality in ambulatory stable coronary artery disease: the Heart and Soul StudyBryan Ristow
Department of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, University of California, San Francisco, California, USA
J Am Coll Cardiol 49:43-9. 2007..We compared the predictive ability of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and end-diastolic pulmonary regurgitation (EDPR) gradients in outpatients with coronary artery disease...- Predicting heart failure hospitalization and mortality by quantitative echocardiography: is body surface area the indexing method of choice? The Heart and Soul StudyBryan Ristow
California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, California 94115, USA
J Am Soc Echocardiogr 23:406-13. 2010..The American Society of Echocardiography recommends dividing measurements by body surface area (BSA), but others have advocated alternative indexing methods... - Usefulness of diastolic dominant pulmonary vein flow to predict hospitalization for heart failure and mortality in ambulatory patients with coronary heart disease (from the Heart and Soul Study)Xiushui Ren
Department of Cardiology, California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, California, USA
Am J Cardiol 103:482-5. 2009..004). In conclusion, diastolic dominant pulmonary vein flow pattern was a stand-alone predictor of adverse cardiac events, and its presence was associated with significantly higher rates of HF hospitalizations and cardiovascular death... - Usefulness of left atrial volume index to predict heart failure hospitalization and mortality in ambulatory patients with coronary heart disease and comparison to left ventricular ejection fraction (from the Heart and Soul Study)Bryan Ristow
California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, CA, USA
Am J Cardiol 102:70-6. 2008..4, p = 0.02), and LAVI >40 ml/m2 was predictive of mortality (OR 1.9, p = 0.005). In conclusion, LAVI had similar predictability as LVEF for HF hospitalization and mortality in ambulatory adults with coronary artery disease... - Association of African American race with elevated pulmonary artery diastolic pressure: data from the Heart and Soul StudyKiran K Khush
Division of Cardiology, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143 0124, USA
J Am Soc Echocardiogr 20:1307-13. 2007..We hypothesized that African American race is associated with an elevated EDPR gradient that may partially predispose African Americans to heart failure... 
Obtaining accurate hemodynamics from echocardiography: achieving independence from right heart catheterizationBryan Ristow
California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, California, USA
Curr Opin Cardiol 25:437-44. 2010..We aim to highlight recent advances in echocardiography allowing integration of measurements to obtain diagnostic accuracy...- Prevalence and prognosis of asymptomatic left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in ambulatory patients with coronary heart diseaseXiushui Ren
Department of Cardiology, California Pacific Medical Center, University of California, San Francisco, USA
Am J Cardiol 99:1643-7. 2007..Patients with asymptomatic LV diastolic dysfunction may benefit from more aggressive therapy to prevent or delay the development of HF...

California Pacific Medical Center, Department of Cardiology, Kanbar Cardiac Center, San Francisco, CA 94115, USA
J Card Fail 14:198-202. 2008..Young severely obese patients with advanced heart failure may not be suitable candidates for cardiac transplantation because of surgical morbidity and availability of adequately sized donor hearts...- Acute myocardial infarction in patients with versus without aortic valve sclerosis and effect of statin therapy (from the Heart and Soul Study)Sanjiv J Shah
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA
Am J Cardiol 99:1128-33. 2007..4-fold increased rate of subsequent MI. Statins may attenuate the increased risk of future MI in patients with aortic sclerosis... - Pulmonary regurgitation end-diastolic gradient is a Doppler marker of cardiac status: data from the Heart and Soul StudyBryan Ristow
California Pacific Medical Center, San Francisco, California 94115, USA
J Am Soc Echocardiogr 18:885-91. 2005..Echocardiograms routinely sample pulmonary regurgitation signals from which it is possible to measure end diastolic gradients; these correlate with pulmonary artery diastolic pressures...
