Bicuspid Aortic Valve: Morphology, Clinic, Diagnosis, Complications
Bicuspid aortic valve refers to common (0.5-2% of the population) congenital heart defects that are asymptomatic throughout life, with valve dysfunction and/or aortopathy (pathia- from Greek pathos disease), manifested by expansion, aneurysm or ...

Frequency and Spectrum of Actionable Secondary Findings in the Maltese Population
In a populaiton cohort of 350 individuals, actionable P/LP variants were identified in 12 individuals (3.4%) across autosomal dominant genes. ABSTRACT Background The identification of actionable secondary findings (SFs) through clinical exome sequencing has become increasingly relevant with the integration of genomics into routine healthcare.

Abstract Heart failure is a major contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality. Pregnancy is a state of hemodynamic stress, and normal physiologic changes of pregnancy may mimic signs of heart failure. Prepregnancy counseling, multidisciplinary care, and referral to a center with expertise in managing pregnant patients with heart failure can help ...

Patients with moderate AS exhibited various 4D flow MRI‐derived aortic hemodynamic profiles despite having similar mean pressure gradient. Peak turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) significantly correlated with LV volumes, mass, and native T1 value. Our study revealed heterogeneity of aortic hemodynamics and their impact on LV myocardium in patients with ...

Aortopathy in the 7q11.23 microduplication syndrome [PDF]
The 7q11.23 microduplication syndrome, caused by the reciprocal duplication of the Williams‐Beuren syndrome deletion region, is a genomic disorder with an emerging clinical phenotype. Dysmorphic features, congenital anomalies, hypotonia, developmental delay highlighted by variable speech delay, and autistic features are characteristic findings ...

Epidermolysis bullosa for primary care providers: A practical review
Abstract Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of genetic skin diseases, which manifest as fragile skin and blistering in addition to many extracutaneous conditions. Pediatricians and primary care providers play an integral role in managing these patients with multifaceted care needs.

The influence of bicuspid aortic valves on the dynamic pressure distribution in the ascending aorta: a porcine ex vivo model † [PDF]
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to simulate the effect of different bicuspid aortic valve configurations on the dynamic pressure distribution in the ascending aorta. METHODS Aortic specimens were harvested from adult domestic pigs.

The bicuspid aortic valve - studies on valve morphology and pathology in relation to ascending aortic dilatation and coronary artery disease [PDF]
The prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is 1 - 2% and is thereby the most common cardiac malformation. BAV is highly associated with valvular dysfunction and aortic co nditions such as ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic ...
