Left ventricular decompression in paediatric veno‐arterial extracorporeal life support: Reviewing the evidence

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Veno‐arterial extracorporeal life support (VA ECLS) is crucial for neonatal and paediatric patients with severe circulatory collapse but may cause left ventricular (LV) overload, affecting myocardial recovery and causing complications. Evidence on optimal LV decompression strategies in paediatric patients remains limited.

Delivery of care for adult patients with congenital heart disease in Europe: results from the Euro Heart Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aims The increasing number of adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) has prompted the development of recommendations for the management of these patients and for the organization of their healthcare. The aim of this report is to describe the delivery

Identification, characterisation and outcomes of pre‐atrial fibrillation in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) has prognostic implications. Using a machine learning algorithm (FIND‐AF), we aimed to explore clinical events and the cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) characteristics of the pre‐AF phenotype in HFrEF.

Prognostic Value of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography-Derived Strain in Unmasking Risk for Arrhythmias in Children with Myocarditis

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: Risk assessment in pediatric myocarditis is challenging, particularly when left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is preserved. This study aimed to evaluate LV myocardial deformation using speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE)-

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Quality of life in pediatric patients on a paracorporeal ventricular assist device with a novel mobile driving system

open access: yesJHLT Open
Background: EXCOR ventricular assist device (VAD) is the gold standard circulatory support for children with end-stage heart failure. Until recently, the only available driving unit was the stationary Ikus.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.
