Iatrogenic diversion of the inferior vena cava into the left atrium diagnosed 43 years after surgical atrial septal defect closure

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
The diversion of the inferior vena cava into the left atrium after surgical atrial septal defect closure is a fatal complication. Cases of atrial septal defect with no inferior rim should be treated with this complication in mind.

An Incidental Diagnosis of Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis and Secundum Atrial Septal Defect (Lutembacher’s Syndrome) in a Young Woman

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2019
Lutembacher’s syndrome is a rare cardiovascular defect comprising of mitral stenosis and atrial septal defect. A combination of acquired mitral stenosis and congenital atrial septal defect is the most well-recognized pattern. As atrial septal defect acts

Non symptomatic atrial septal defect venosus type IVC – SV coexistent with non-obstructed foramen ovale in 78 years old patient – a case report

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017
Atrial septal defect may be seen under few forms. The most common is ASD secundarum – about 70% of defects. Coexistent non-obstructed foramen ovale with atrial septal defect venosus type IVC – SV is very rare.

Genetics of Atrial Septal Defect [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1972
Of 109 cases of atrial septal defect, cases with an isolated defect (92 cases) showed a female preponderance (sex ratio 0·64), but there was a higher risk to the sibs of the male patients, suggesting a multifactorial mechanism. Dermatoglyphs showed a large number of whorls on the fingers.

A Novel Pak1 Activator Ameliorates ER Stress for HFpEF Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic metabolic stress is a major contributor to HFpEF progression. Under prolonged metabolic stress, Pak1 activity becomes impaired, contributing to disrupted ER proteostasis, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, Pak1 overexpression activates the ERK1/2–MNK1–eIF4E signaling axis, promotes translational ...
