Infective Endocarditis Diagnosed by Emergency Physicians Using Cardiac POCUS: A Case Series

Australasian Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Emergency physicians (EPs) are acquiring ever‐increasing expertise in cardiac point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS). We compiled this case series to demonstrate current practice by EPs diagnosing infective endocarditis (IE) using POCUS.

Recurrent mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation [PDF]

, 2004
ObjectivesWe sought to characterize the temporal return of mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation; to identify its predictors, particularly with respect to annuloplasty type; and to determine whether ...

The Novel ACTC1 p.Gly50Ser Variant Is Associated With Arrhythmia and Secondary Features of HCM Without Hypertrophy

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 7, Page 1742-1748, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The key diagnostic criterion for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the presence of otherwise unexplained hypertrophy. Current definitions of HCM rely on specific thresholds to establish a diagnosis, while guideline directed risk stratification algorithms take its magnitude into consideration.

Contemporary Transcatheter Approaches to Mitral Regurgitation

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a prevalent and prognostically relevant valvular disease, especially in patients with heart failure, in whom MR contributes to adverse remodeling, increased symptom burden, and higher mortality. Surgical repair or replacement

Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation: Behind the Scenes of a Long-Time Neglected Disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Severe tricuspid valve regurgitation has been for a long time a neglected valve disease, which has only recently attracted an increasing interest due to the notable negative impact on the prognosis of patients with cardiovascular disease. It is estimated

Simultaneous Transvenous Lead Extraction and Intra‐Operative Epicardial Extravascular Defibrillator (EV‐ICD) Implantation During Tricuspid Valve Replacement

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Transvalvular device leads are undesirable following tricuspid valve replacement. Simultaneous lead extraction and intra‐operative EV‐ICD implantation can provide ongoing defibrillator therapy without crossing the prosthetic valve and may avoid the need for additional pacing hardware when atrioventricular conduction is preserved.
