Anatomy of the ventricular septal defect in congenital heart defects: a random association?

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is an integral part of most congenital heart defects (CHD). To determine the prevalence of VSD in various types of CHD and the distribution of their anatomic types.

Predictive Numerical Simulations of Double Branch Stent-Graft Deployment in an Aortic Arch Aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Biomedical Engineering, Springer Verlag, In press, 2019
Total endovascular repair of the aortic arch represents a promising option for patients ineligible to open surgery. Custom-made design of stent-grafts (SG), such as the Terumo Aortic RelayBranch device (DB), requires complex preoperative measures.

Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Malignant Pericardial Mesothelioma

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary malignant pericardial mesothelioma (PMPM), a rare pericardium‐derived malignancy, urgently requires standardized diagnostic and therapeutic protocols. This consensus, established by the Chinese Alliance of Research for Mesothelioma (ChARM) through the integration of evidence‐based research and multicenter clinical expertise, addresses ...

A Tbx1-Six1/Eya1-Fgf8 genetic pathway controls mammalian cardiovascular and craniofacial morphogenesis.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2011
Shared molecular programs govern the formation of heart and head during mammalian embryogenesis. Development of both structures is disrupted in human chromosomal microdeletion of 22q11.2 (del22q11), which causes DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) and velo-cardio ...

Second‐Trimester Ultrasound Receipt Mediates the Relationship Between Public Insurance and Prenatal Diagnosis of a Congenital Heart Defect

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To delineate the mechanism behind insurance‐related disparities in the prenatal diagnosis of a congenital heart defect (CHD). Methods This was a retrospective analysis of electronic health records of pregnant individuals whose infants received CHD surgery between 2019 and 2020 in the third‐largest United States metropolitan area. The

Computer Simulations of Pulsatile Human Blood Flow Through 3D-Models of the Human Aortic Arch, Vessels of Simple Geometry and a Bifurcated Artery: Investigation of Blood Viscosity and Turbulent Effects [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We report computational results of blood flow through a model of the human aortic arch and a vessel of actual diameter and length. On the top of the aortic arch the branching of the %%three arteries are included: the subclavian and jugular. A realistic pulsatile flow is used in all simulations. Calculations for bifurcation type vessels are also carried

Cardiovascular defects in a mouse model of HOXA1 syndrome.

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2012
Congenital heart disease is one of the most common human birth defects, yet many genes and pathways regulating heart development remain unknown. A recent study in humans revealed that mutations in a single Hox gene, HOXA1 (Athabascan Brainstem Dysgenesis
