Background: longitudinal and radial systolic function are weakened by cardiac diseases and longitudinal one is weakened first. Assessment of left ventricular LV systolic function is important in management and prognosis of cardiac diseases. Mitral annular displacement MAD is used to assess LV longitudinal and global systolic function. Objectives: To validate the accuracy of MAD assessed by Doppler tissue imaging DTI and m-mode echocardiography MME as a surrogate for determination of LV systolic function in pationts with ischemic heart disease and/or heart failure, and maybe easy and fast way instead of conventional echocardiography assessment of LV function. This way permits to study the function of LV longitudinal cardiac fibers function while the conventional ways of echocardiography assesses the circumferential shortening. Patients and methods: We studied a series of 96 patients (men and women) with (ischemic heart diseases,heart failure) divided into three age groups and compared with another 59 healthy age matched volunteers as a control group. We selected subjects from AL ASSAD hospital /LATAKIA over the year 2014. A medical history, whole medical examination, ECG, conventional echocardiography were made to each subject. Ejection fraction EF of LV, Doppler recording of the mitral inflow, MME and pulse wave Doppler tissue imaging PW DTI data (from each four sites of mitral annulus, anterior, septal, lateral and inferior) were obtained. Mean peak systolic velocity (S wave), mean annular early diastolic velocity (e') by PW DTI and mean mitral annular displacement (MAD) by MME were calculated by averaging of values measured at each annular site. Results: MAD correlate well with LV EF, mean MAD < 11.275 mm determined by MME has 85% sensitivity and 87.8% specificity and 85.8% accuracy for detection of LV EF < 50%, Mad was low in patients with infarctions and lower in pationts with heart failure. Conclusion: Mean MAD connect with a positive relationship with LV EF and can detect the abnormal systolic motion on the long axis. That means the ability to detect the ischemia in early stages.

Prenatal detection of congenital heart disease is possible from the 16th week of pregnancy. the ideal time being the Midtrimester ,when the most cardiac abnormalities can be detected ,where all routine cross sectional views are easily obtainable. To evaluate the detection and accuracy of fetal echocardiography for congenital heart defects among high risk pregnancies.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world over the past 10 years. Researchers have been using several data mining techniques to help health care professionals in the diagnosis of heart disease. Decision Tree is one of the successful d ata mining techniques used. However, most research has applied J4.8 Decision Tree, based on Gain Ratio and binary discretization. Gini Index and Information Gain are two other successful types of Decision Trees that are less used in the diagnosis of heart disease. Also other discretization techniques, voting method, and reduced error pruning are known to produce more accurate Decision Trees. This research investigates applying a range of techniques to different types of Decision Trees seeking better performance in heart disease diagnosis. A widely used benchmark data set is used in this research. To evaluate the performance of the alternative Decision Trees the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are calculated. The research proposes a model that outperforms J4.8 Decision Tree and Bagging algorithm in the diagnosis of heart disease patients.
The role of the inflammatory process in atherosclerosis and its development has been confirmed, as many inflammatory factors intervene in the vasculitis process, which leads to damage to the endothelium, which is the early event in the process of atherosclerosis.
Study has been made on 121 patients affected by myocardial infarction ( MI ) in Damascus university hospitals whereas the patients were divided in tow groups : the first group contained 60 patients treated traditionally without captopril. the seco nd group contained 61 patients treated traditionally and by captopril these patients were examined by Echo – Doppler during the acute phase and after six months of MI to realize the effect of captopril on contractility and function of left ventricular (LV) .
Pleural effusion is a common clinical condition. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is the most frequent cause of pleural effusions, which typically are transudates, but occasional patients with CHF are found to have exudates in the absence of an appa rent cause other than CHF, and the presence of CHF does not always explain exudative effusions in those patients. We aimed to determine the incidence, clinical significance of such exudative effusions and to study the effects of diuretics on characteristics of pleural fluid in patients with CHF accompanied with pleural effusion.
