None of the patients had clinical evidence of congestive heart failure. Intervals measured included electromechanical systole (Q-S\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            ), heart sound interval (S\n            <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n            -S\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            ) and left ventricular ejection time (LVET). From these, the pre-ejection period (PEP), isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) and Q-S\n            <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n            intervals were derived. Deviations (\u0394STI) of observed values from expected values (Weissler equations) for the same heart rate were obtained by subtraction. The mean deviation of the thyrotoxic patients \u00b1\n            <jats:sc>sem<\/jats:sc>\n            from the normal population were \u0394Q- S\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            <jats:sup>*<\/jats:sup>\n            = \u201337.8 \u00b1 4.2; \u0394LVET = \u20134.0 \u00b1 4.1; \u0394PEP\n            <jats:sup>*<\/jats:sup>\n            = \u201333.8 \u00b1 1.8. The shortening of PEP was due largely to a shortened ICT (\u0394ICT\n            <jats:sup>*<\/jats:sup>\n            = \u201327.2 \u00b1 1.1). In eight patients studied serially during treatment the short PEP returned to the normal range concurrently with serum T\n            <jats:sub>4<\/jats:sub>\n            measurements. This study indicates that the PEP is a unique noninvasive measurement of biological end organ responsiveness with thyroid dysfunction; a short PEP is characteristic of uncomplicated thyrotoxicosis and serial changes in PEP may be a useful index of therapeutic response.\n            <jats:sup>*<\/jats:sup>\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; .001.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/01.cir.49.5.900","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,11]],"date-time":"2012-06-11T23:56:43Z","timestamp":1339459003000},"page":"900-904","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["The Short Cardiac Pre-Ejection Period"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"49","author":[{"given":"ALFRED F.","family":"PARISI","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Medical Service, Veterans Administration Hospital, and University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland and Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center, Lackland AFB, Texas."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"BRUCE P.","family":"HAMILTON","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Medical Service, Veterans Administration Hospital, and University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland and Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center, Lackland AFB, Texas."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"CHARLES N.","family":"THOMAS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Medical Service, Veterans Administration Hospital, and University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland and Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center, Lackland AFB, Texas."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ERNEST L.","family":"MAZZAFERRI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Medical Service, Veterans Administration Hospital, and University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland and Wilford Hall USAF Medical Center, Lackland AFB, Texas."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","container-title":["Circulation"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ahajournals.org\/doi\/pdf\/10.1161\/01.CIR.49.5.900","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,12]],"date-time":"2024-05-12T14:15:39Z","timestamp":1715523339000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ahajournals.org\/doi\/10.1161\/01.CIR.49.5.900"}},"subtitle":["An Index to Thyrotoxicosis"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1974,5]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1974,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1161\/01.CIR.49.5.900"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/01.cir.49.5.900","relation":{},"ISSN":["0009-7322","1524-4539"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0009-7322","type":"print"},{"value":"1524-4539","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1974,5]]},"assertion":[{"value":"1973-10-29","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"1974-01-02","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"1974-05-01","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
