Arq Bras Cardiol . 2012 May; 98(6):544-52. PMID: 22641391
Background: In chronic heart failure patients (CHF), ultrasound measurement of inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) has been proposed to yield careful assessment and grading of the hemodynamic congestion. Objective:...

Ultrasound evaluation of the inferior vena cava collapsibility index in congestive heart failure patients treated with intravenous diuretics: new insights about its relationship with renal function: an observational study
De Vecchis R, Ariano C, Fusco A, Ciccarelli A, Cioppa C, Giasi A, et al.
Anadolu Kardiyol Derg . 2012 May; 12(5):391-400. PMID: 22564268
Objective: In chronic heart failure (CHF), collapsibility index of the inferior vena cava (IVCCI) is used for noninvasive ultrasonographic appraisal of central venous pressure, but it also may be related...

ACE-inhibitor therapy at relatively high doses and risk of renal worsening in chronic heart failure
De Vecchis R, Di Biase G, Ariano C, Cioppa C, Giasi A, Ciccarelli A, et al.
Arq Bras Cardiol . 2011 Oct; 97(6):507-16. PMID: 22001954

The relation between carotid atherosclerotic plaques and ischemic stroke is critically conditioned by the role of arterial hypertension as an effect modifier
De Vecchis R, Ciccarelli A, Ariano C, Cioppa C, Giasi A, Pucciarelli A, et al.
Can J Cardiol . 2011 Apr; 27(2):152-8. PMID: 21459262
Background: Hypertension is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS) along with diabetes, smoking, and hypercholesterolemia. Any uncertainty remains about other putative risk factors, ultrasound-derived, such as carotid soft...
