The Evolving Landscape of CHD Genetics: A Contemporary Guide to Genetic Testing and Management

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, affecting an estimated 9.4/1000 infants globally. The genetics of CHD is complex, with most cases thought to have multifactorial aetiology, implicating both genetic and environmental factors.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

Adult congenital aortic coarctation complicated by acute type a aortic intramural hematoma treated with a staged hybrid technique: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) in adults is rare. usually combined with dilatation of the ascending aorta. Further disease progression complicated by hematoma or dissection of the ascending aorta is even more complicated and dangerous.

Anatomic reconstruction of recurrent aortic arch obstruction in children [PDF]

, 2017
Objective: Anatomical reconstruction of the aortic arch following aortic arch surgery is challenging. The placement of an extra-anatomical aortic bypass has been proposed for these difficult cases.

Pigmented Birthmarks and Spinal Neurofibromas in KRAS Mosaicism—Not to Be Confused With NF1

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a child presenting with pigmentary skin lesions and spinal neurofibromas who was diagnosed molecularly with KRAS mosaicism. We review the previous literature of two cases of congenital skin lesions and neurofibromas and spinal nerve root hypertrophy caused by KRAS variants and highlight this presentation as an important differential ...

Genetic Diagnoses Among Congenital Anomaly Cases in Europe: Data From the EUROCAT Network

Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance of congenital anomaly prevalence over time can identify new teratogens. Anomalies with a genetic cause are excluded from the monitoring. Objectives We examined temporal changes in the proportion of genetic diagnoses among cases with a congenital anomaly.

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Outcomes and re-interventions after one-stage repair of transposition of great arteries and aortic arch obstruction [PDF]

, 2017
Objectives: One-stage repair of transposition of great arteries (TGA) and aortic arch obstruction (AAO) is currently advocated, but carries formidable surgical challenges. This report presents our experience and re-interventions for residual lesions over

Establishment of a mouse model for ischaemic heart failure induced by coronary microembolization via left ventricular oil injection

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past three decades, there has been a steady increase in clinical attention to ischaemic heart failure caused by coronary microembolization. Nonetheless, a suitable mouse model for studying this condition remains limited. In the present study, we developed a mouse model of coronary microembolization‐induced ischaemic heart failure by ...
