Does right atrial size relate to right ventricular end-diastolic pressure in an adult population with congenital heart disease?
RA size measured by echocardiography is strongly correlated to invasive parameters of RV diastolic filling and predicts high RV end-diastolic pressure.
There may be some mechanisms that promote the progression of mucosal lesions to invasive cancers in the left colon and rectum, whereas a de novo pathway from depressed type lesions may be implicated in some cancers of the right colon.
