Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation in a Pediatric Population: Clinical Characteristics, Management, and Complications

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The natural history and long‐term outcome in pediatric patients with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) are poorly characterized. We sought to define the clinical characteristics and long‐term outcomes of a pediatric cohort with an ...

Factors and outcomes associated with improved left ventricular systolic function in patients with cardiomyopathy

open access: yesCardiology Journal, 2022
BACKGROUND: Many patients in the Sudden Cardiac Death in Heart Failure Trial (SCD-HeFT) had a significant improvement (> 10%) in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) during the course of the study, but the factors and outcomes associated with ...

Mortality among ischemic and nonischemic heart failure patients with a primary implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Background The efficacy of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) for primary prevention is controversial in patients with nonischemic heart failure (HF).

An Energy Focusing Flexible and Lightweight Acoustic Metamaterial for Enhanced Ultrasound Power Transfer

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A flexible and lightweight acoustic metamaterial composed of air cavities encased in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is introduced to enhance ultrasound power transfer. The metamaterial leverages the strong reflectivity of air cavity boundaries to concentrate incoming ultrasound, thereby improving the performance of piezoelectric energy harvesters ...

Real-World Efficacy and Safety of the Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator: Insights from the GASP Registry

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: The advent of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators (S-ICDs) marked a significant milestone in the course of cardiac rhythm devices, particularly for patients who are deemed at high risk for ventricular arrhythmias and sudden ...

Implementation of First‐Line Rapid Genome Sequencing for Children in Pediatric and Cardiac Intensive Care Units

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Substantial data supports the use of rapid exome and genome sequencing (rES/rGS) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU), but fewer studies have examined the impact of rES/rGS in other pediatric critical care units. We evaluated the impact on diagnostic yield and time to diagnosis following a single‐center hospital policy change allowing ...

Expanding the Phenotype of TUFM‐Related Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 4

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4 (COXPD4) is a rare mitochondrial condition caused by biallelic deleterious variants in the nuclear‐encoded gene TUFM. To date, most individuals with COXPD4 have presented with encephalopathy, hypotonia, and abnormal brain imaging. Many of the reported individuals died in infancy. We aim to expand

Brugada Syndrome: New Implications for Heterozygous Carriers of the Pathogenic SCN5A c.689T>C(p.Ile230Thr) Variant

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the SCN5A gene and its subunits have been identified in individuals with Brugada Syndrome. One such SCN5A variant, c.689T>C(p.Ile230Thr), was previously reported as disease‐causing only in homozygous individuals, with heterozygous carriers being unaffected.

Impact of Rapid Exome Sequencing on Pediatric Patients With Cardiomyopathy and Acute Heart Failure

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few studies describe the impact of rapid exome sequencing (ES) on pediatric cardiomyopathy in urgent clinical settings. Here, we retrospectively report the impact of rapid singleton ES in pediatric patients presented with acute heart failure and isolated cardiomyopathy or myocarditis, between 2021 and 2023 at a single tertiary care center.
