Echocardiography during submaximal isometric exercise in children with repaired coarctation of the aorta compared with controls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objective Patients with repaired coarctation (RCoA) remain at higher risk of cardiac dysfunction, initially often only detected during exercise. In this study, haemodynamics of isometric handgrip (HG) and bicycle ergometry (BE) were compared in patients ...

Causal correlations between inflammatory proteins and heart failure: A two‐sample Mendelian randomization analysis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1374-1385, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Inflammation plays a critical role in both the development and progression of heart failure (HF), which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, the causality between specific inflammation‐related proteins and HF risk remains unclear.

SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1416-1426, April 2025.
Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Fetal heterotaxy with tricuspid atresia, pulmonary atresia, and isomerism of the right atrial appendages at 22 weeks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report the accurate prenatal diagnosis at 22 weeks gestation of right atrial isomerism in association with tricuspid atresia. Several distinctive sonographic features of isomerism of the right atrial appendages were present in this fetus: complex ...

Non‐Nutritive Artificial Sweeteners Aspartame and Acesulfame‐K Ameliorate Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in Male Ldlr−/− Mice

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aspartame and acesulfame‐K are commonly used non‐nutritive artificial sweeteners, but their impacts on cardiovascular disease and metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MASLD) are unclear. In this study, we evaluated the impacts of aspartame and acesulfame‐K on MASLD and atherosclerosis in male Ldlr−/− mice fed an AMLN diet ...

Quantitative MRI Values for Atrial and Ventricular Parameters in Altitude‐Dwelling Youth

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The hypoxic environment on the Qinghai Plateau significantly exacerbates myocardial remodeling, with sex/ethnicity‐specific variations in cardiac parameters among local youth. Current cardiac MRI reference values lack data from physiologically adapted populations on this plateau.

Motion Mitigation Techniques for Abdominal and Cardiac MR Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MRI of the heart and abdominal organs provides unparalleled soft tissue contrast and quantitative biomarkers, yet remains highly susceptible to physiological motion. Contractions of the myocardium, respiratory excursions, peristalsis, vascular pulsatility, and unpredictable bulk patient movement generate artifacts that impair image quality ...
