Schematic overview showing that forkhead box O6, opposite strand (Foxo6os) acts as a “scaffold”, directly binding myosin‐binding protein‐C (MYBPC3) and recruiting protein kinase C (PKC‐α) to mediate site‐specific phosphorylation of MYBPC3. This post‐translational modification supports cardiac contraction by regulating L‐type Ca2+ channels, especially ...

Abdominal aorta coarctation: The first three case reports in our literature [PDF]
Introduction. Congenital coarctation of the thoracic aorta at the ligamentum arteriosum or the aortic arch is well recognized. But a much less common variety (0.5-2.0%) of aortic coarctation is located in the distal thoracic aorta or abdominal aorta or ...

ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

Coarctation of Aorta Masquerading as a Spinal Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report
Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital disease involving the cardiovascular system. It has a varied presentation and is often under-diagnosed in clinical practice. The authors report a case of an unusual presentation of coarctation of the aorta with a

Long-term outcomes of surgical repair of isolated coarctation of the aorta in different age groups
Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is one of the most common congenital heart defects (5–8% of all CHD). Treatment of native CoA may be accomplished surgically, or through an interventional approach.

ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) continues to present a diagnostic challenge to healthcare professionals. The diagnostic challenges associated with TS result in delayed treatment and clinical care. Here we provide an update of the physical appearance of girls and women with TS by presenting clinical photographs and detailed clinical descriptions of 25 ...

ABSTRACT It is evident that Turner syndrome (TS) impacts almost all developmental stages of the fetal heart with congenital heart disease (CHD) being seen in 23%–50% of individuals. Although the spectrum of CHDs in TS is well‐established, with left‐sided lesions predominating, the influence of specific karyotypes on the prevalence and types of CHDs ...

Background There are a lot of reports of the renal failure and heart failure due to coarctation of the aorta. However, there are no case reports in which revascularization dramatically improved left ventricular function in patients with progressive ...

Coronary Artery Disease in Adults With Coarctation of Aorta: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Outcomes
Background Premature coronary artery disease (CAD) is common in patients with coarctation of aorta (COA), but there are limited data about any direct relationship (or lack thereof) between COA and CAD.

This study evaluates the role of elastin in vascular response 28 days after balloon angioplasty using uncoated and paclitaxel‐coated balloons in a healthy porcine model. The results show higher elastin content in external femoral arteries, which is inversely correlated with vascular injury, inflammation, smooth muscle cell loss, proteoglycan and fibrin
