Probiotics restore enteric HDL3 secretion and improve prognosis in patients with end‐stage renal disease

iMeta, EarlyView.
Randomized double‐blind trials have shown that probiotic mixtures significantly increase high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease mortality in end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Meta‐analysis with prospective cohort studies further confirms that elevated HDL is a protective factor for ESRD outcomes.

Ultrasound‐Based Z Score and Pulmonary Valve/Aortic Valve Diameter Ratio Improving the Predictive Value of Fetal Aortic Stenosis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A total of 24 singleton fetuses with suspected AS who underwent two or more fetal echocardiograms were enrolled in this study. Using electronic spatiotemporal image correlation (eSTIC) technology, the AV and PV Z scores, along with the PV/AV ratio, were measured and compared between two echocardiographic examinations to assess diagnostic efficacy ...

Aortic Function in a Longitudinal 4D Flow MRI Study in Marfan Syndrome Patients Receiving Resveratrol

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background New treatment strategies are required to reduce aortic events in Marfan syndrome (MFS). Resveratrol is a dietary supplement that intervenes in aortic wall cellular metabolism and may benefit MFS patients. Purpose To evaluate whether treatment with Resveratrol affects aorta hemodynamics derived from 4D flow MRI in MFS.

MRI Assessment of Energy Loss Within the Thoracic Aorta and Its Impact on Cardiac Function in Fontan Patients After Aortic Reconstruction

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In Fontan patients undergoing aortic reconstruction, concerns regarding the impact of aortic function on ventricular function exist. Purpose 4D Flow MRI was used to compare energy loss (EL) within the thoracic aorta in patients with and without aortic reconstruction. Study Type Retrospective case control.

Feed fortification strategy impact on the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis in infants with complex congenital heart disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Development of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in infants with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) has serious negative clinical outcomes. Unfortified expressed breast milk (EBM) is this high‐risk population's enteral feed of choice. EBM often requires fortification to meet nutritional needs to prevent malnutrition.
