Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We have aimed at exposing left ventricular diastolic functions and the presence of known genetic mutations for familial erythrocytosis, in patients who exhibit idiopathic erythrocytosis. METHODS: Sixty-four patients with idiopathic erythrocytosis (mean age, 46.4 ± 2.7 years) and 30 age-matched healthy subjects were prospectively evaluated. The regions of interest of the erythropoietin receptor,...
