Laser Lead Extraction Complicated by Avulsed Tricuspid Subvalvular Apparatus with Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation (Fotis Katsikeris, Calvin Craig, Colby Salerno, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2020)

The use of laser lead extraction (LLE) to remove pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads has become increasingly prevalent. This advanced technique has been shown to be highly effective and safe. We report a rare case ...

Severe aortic complications in a patient with variant Shone's complex and bicuspid aortic valve (Mohammed Ahmed, Hany Aziz and Leng Jiang) All Scholarly Works (2017)

Left heart chamber quantification in obese patients: how does larger body size affect echocardiographic measurements? (Leng Jiang) All Scholarly Works (2014)

BACKGROUND: Accurate normalization of cardiac chamber size in the obese population is a challenge. The aim of this study was to develop and assess the performance of allometric models for scaling left heart chamber sizes, ...

T-wave inversion and diastolic dysfunction in patients with electrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy (James Cook, Peter Ofman, Leehapong Navaravong, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2012)

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate if T-wave inversion (TWI) in the settings of electrocardiogram (ECG)-left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is associated with advanced diastolic dysfunction (DD) in subjects with preserved ejection fraction ...

Allometric model improves scaling of left atrial size in obese population: The use of body weight containing variables is challenged (Jiang Cui, Gui Hua Yao, Neelima Vallurupalli, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2011)

BACKGROUND: Scaling left atrial (LA) size remains a challenge. An allometric model using body weight (BW) as scaling variable was recently proposed. We sought to examine the performance of this model in an obese population. ...

How to do the linear dimensions contribute to left atrial enlargement: A real-time three dimensional echocadiographic study (Gui Hua Yao, John Abboud, Neelima Vallurupalli, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2010)

A preliminary study of the application of speckle tracking imaging for assessing myocardial function during exercise stress echocardiography (Gui Hua Yao, Hany Aziz, John Abboud, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2009)

Allometric model using body weight containing variables improves scaling of left atrial size in obesity but remains challenging in severely obese subjects (Gui Hua Yao, Neelima Vallurupalli, Jiang Cui, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2009)

Is epicardial fat a risk factor for significant coronary artery disease? An echocardiographic study (Gui Hua Yao, Neelima Vallurupalli, James Cook, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2009)

Right ventricular global longitudinal strain is not uniformly impaired in patients with pulmonary hypertension (Gui Hua Yao, Jiang Cui, William Hiser, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2009)

Superiority of biplane Simpson's rule over biplane area-length method in left atrial volume quanitification: Comparison with real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (Gui Hua Yao, Neelima Vallurupalli, William Hiser, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2009)

Fatty infiltration of the aortic valve (Liron Pantanowitz and Leng Jiang) All Scholarly Works (2009)

We report, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of fatty infiltration involving a semilunar cardiac valve. A non-obese 79-year-old man had an echogenic mass in the right coronary cusp on transesophageal echocardiography ...

Fatal pheochromocytoma crisis precipitated by dobutamine stress echocardiography (Prabhdeep Sethi, William Hiser, Leng Jiang, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2008)

The safety of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) has been demonstrated in multiple studies with a major complication rate of <1%. Specifically, ventricular tachycardia during DSE has a reported incidence of 0.3%, and has been bound ...

Height is the preferred index for left atrial volume measurement in overweight and obese adults (Jiang Cui, William Hiser, Mara Slawsky, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2008)

Significantly misclassified left atrial size by left atrial dimension or area: Comparison with left atrial volume by two- or three-dimensional echocardiography (Neelima Vallurupalli, William Hiser, Leng Jiang, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2008)

Fatal pheochromotycoma crisis precipitated bydobutamine stress echocardiography. (Mara Slawsky, William Hiser, Ashequl Islam, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2007)

Unroofed coronary sinus with absent right and persistent left superior vena cava draining to the left atrium detected by transesophageal echocardiography. (Leng Jiang) All Scholarly Works (2007)

Expeditious management of a rare, slow growing form of subacute bacterial endocarditis (Leng Jiang, Lisa Massie, Daniel Skiest, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2007)

Time to peak displacement on speckle tracking imaging: A better parameter for left ventricular synchrony (Adrian Fluture, Lisa Massie, William Hiser, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2007)

Geometric determinants of functional tricuspid regurgitation: Insights from 3-dimensional echocardiography (Leng Jiang) All Scholarly Works (2006)

Insights into left ventricular synchrony: Peak velocity versus peak contraction (James Cook, Kenneth Santiago, Leng Jiang, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2006)

Time to end systolic velocity, a novel tissue Doppler measurement, correlates best with maximal longitudinal contraction (James Cook, Leng Jiang, Hany Aziz, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2006)

Acute rise in LV dp/dt with cardiac resynchronization therapy is related to acute reduction of mitral regurgitation (James Cook, Leng Jiang, Hany Aziz, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2005)

How specific is it: The current tissue Doppler cutoff values for left ventricular dyssynchrony (Kenneth Santiago, Leng Jiang, Lisa Massie, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2005)

Tissue Doppler imaging for left ventriclar dyssynchrony: Radial versus longitudinal assessment (Hany Aziz, Leng Jiang, Lisa Massie, et al.) All Scholarly Works (2005)
