CardioNet: Automatic Semantic Segmentation to Calculate the Cardiothoracic Ratio for Cardiomegaly and Other Chest Diseases

open access: yes, 2022
Semantic segmentation for diagnosing chest-related diseases like cardiomegaly, emphysema, pleural effusions, and pneumothorax is a critical yet understudied tool for identifying the chest anatomy. A dangerous disease among these is cardiomegaly, in which

Pre‐anaesthetic risk assessment and management of dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease: a spectrum of care narrative review

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Myxomatous mitral valve disease, an acquired valvular degeneration, is the most common cardiac disorder in dogs, affecting approximately 10% of dogs in primary care veterinary practice. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease frequently require anaesthesia for routine procedures.

Real‐World Treatment of Patients With Sinus Node Dysfunction and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation is recommended in patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND). In patients with coexisting heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), clinicians may be hesitant to treat SND due to concerns about exacerbating heart failure.

Integrative methylation and miRNA dysregulation in dlPFC reveal distinct molecular signatures of suicide and non‐suicide subtypes in major depressive disorder

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aim Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of disability and carries a high risk of suicide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are epigenetic regulators implicated in MDD and can be regulated by DNA methylation, potentially reshaping downstream gene networks.

Comparing fist size to heart size is not a viable technique to assess cardiomegaly

open access: yes, 2018
PURPOSE Several medical textbooks state that a human heart is approximately the size of that person's fist. Stating that a heart has the size of the corpse's fist is thought to signify that the heart size is normal.

Is Cardiomegaly an Indication of “Heart-Sparing Effect” in Small Fetuses?

open access: yes, 2021
Introduction: This study aimed to test the hypothesis that cardiac size is maintained in small fetuses presenting with cardiomegaly. Materials and Methods: We identified singleton fetuses with estimated fetal weight

Thymolipoma Simulating Cardiomegaly

open access: yesUpsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 1976
A thymolipoma in an 8-year-old boy is reported. The tumour had appeared on a routine chest X-ray as a broadened heart shadow and a peculiar right heart contour. Cardiac hypertrophy was suspected primarily. At thoracotomy a thymic tumour was found.

The Heart of the Thymus: A Rare Tale of Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy in the Absence of Myasthenia Gravis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Thymomas are rare epithelial tumors of the anterior mediastinum known for their association with autoimmune and paraneoplastic syndromes, most notably myasthenia gravis (MG). Cardiomyopathy is an exceptionally rare paraneoplastic manifestation.
