ABSTRACT Background Historically, bilateral pulmonary artery band (PAB) placement was guided by pulmonary blood flow surrogates including systemic blood pressure (BP) and arterial saturation. These metrics alone may result in suboptimal bPAB placement.

Ebstein's Anomaly: Genetics, Clinical Manifestations, and Management
Ebstein's anomaly is uncommon. Genetic bases of this congenital heart defect may be related to the mutations in myosin heavy chain 7 and NKX2.5, among others. Asymptomatic patients with Ebstein's anomaly can be conservatively treated and kept under close

An extremely high generator impedance in the blood pool can be observed in a patient with severe polycythemia. However, ablation can be performed safely as long as the generator impedance during contact with the myocardial tissue is within acceptable limits.

Interstage attrition between bidirectional Glenn and Fontan palliation in children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome [PDF]
ObjectiveWith improving operative mortality for staged palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, interstage death accounts for an increasing proportion of hypoplastic left heart syndrome mortality.

Pulmonary Atresia and Intact Ventricular Septum in Transcatheter Perforation of Atretic Pulmonary Valve [PDF]
Background and Objective: The use of mechanical perforation as an alternative to radiofrequency wire in the treatment of pulmonary valve atresia with an intact ventricular septum, which is a duct-dependent cyanotic congenital heart disease.

Lactate can be shuttled from astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and activated microglia to pyramidal cells and fast‐spiking interneurons, and it may represent a major source of pyruvate that is normally produced endogenously by neuronal glucose metabolism. In slice preparations, however, provision of lactate impairs neuronal gamma oscillations featuring high

Glenn Shunt as an Alternative Procedure for Rheumatoid Triple Valve Disease with Tricuspid Stenosis
A 41-year-old woman with rheumatoid triple valve disease was operated. Mitral and aortic valves were replaced with prosthetic valves. The tricuspid valve annulus was highly stenotic (valve area: 1.4 cm(2)), therefore a bidirectional Glenn Shunt procedure
