From Stinespring dilation to Sz.-Nagy dilation on the symmetrized bidisc and operator models [PDF]
We provide an explicit normal distinguished boundary dilation to a pair of commuting operators $(S,P)$ having the closed symmetrized bidisc $\Gamma$ as a spectral set. This is called Sz.-Nagy dilation of $(S,P)$. The operator pair that dilates $(S,P)$ is obtained by an application of Stinespring dilation of $(S,P)$ given by Agler and Young.

Layer-Specific Strain Analysis in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Background/Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate layer-specific strain according to etiology and assess whether subtle changes in longitudinal and circumferential layer strain are involved in predicting cardiac mortality during a two-year follow-up in

Development and Management of Canine Adverse Food Reactions and its Connections to the Grain-Free Dog Food Movement [PDF]
Canine Adverse Food Reactions include immunologically-mediated food allergies as well as non-immunological food intolerances. Although popular belief holds grains are responsible for AFR, the majority are aggravated by the common protein sources found in

Dilated cardiomyopathy in a child with abdominal neuroblastoma and normal serum catecholamine levels: anaesthetic management and review of literature [PDF]
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumour of childhood. Dilated cardiomyopathy as an initial presentation of neuroblastoma is rare. We report the case of a three-year-old child with giant abdominal neuroblastoma encasing the abdominal ...

A Deep Learning-Driven Pipeline for Differentiating Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy from Cardiac Amyloidosis Using 2D Multi-View Echocardiography [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and cardiac amyloidosis (CA) are both heart conditions that can progress to heart failure if untreated. They exhibit similar echocardiographic characteristics, often leading to diagnostic challenges. This paper introduces a novel multi-view deep learning approach that utilizes 2D echocardiography for differentiating ...

Psoriasis and cardiomyopathy: An intriguing association
A 25-year-old male symptomatic of heart disease for four months presented with biventricular failure. Echocardiography revealed dilated cardiomyopathy. He had skin lesions for 10 years which were clinically and histopathologically identified as psoriasis.

Left Ventricular Pacing In Patients With Congestive Heart Failure [PDF]
Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) using biventricular (BIV) pacing has proved its effectiveness to correct myocardial asynchrony and improve clinical status of patients with severe congestive heart failure (CHF) and widened QRS. Despite a different

Neonatal dilated cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyopathies are rare diseases of the heart muscle, of multiple causes, that manifest with various structural and functional phenotypes but are invariably associated with cardiac dysfunction.
