Layer-Specific Strain Analysis in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Biomedicines
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

Genetic Biomarkers in the Risk Assessment of Sudden Cardiac Events: A Personalized Approach

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
Genetic insights into the risk assessment of sudden cardiac events. ABSTRACT Sudden cardiac events are the leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional risk stratification methods, which largely depend on clinical history, imaging, and electrocardiography, are usually inadequate for identifying high‐risk individuals, especially those without visible ...

The use of anticoagulation in pediatric cardiac disease [PDF]

, 2003
Palliation and repair of increasingly complex congenital heart defects as well as the emergence of novel contexts has led to multiple scenarios in which a real or potential risk of thromboembolism may exist. While various anticoagulation methodologies

The Effects of Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor on Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Doxorubicin‐Mediated Cardiomyopathy‐Associated Heart Failure Model in Rats

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the most serious complications associated with the use of the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (DOX) is cardiomyopathy. Although cardioprotective drugs such as angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) are used to prevent cardiomyopathy in DOX patients, no studies have reported the relationship between ARNI and endoplasmic ...

Diagnosis and cardiac transplantation of a Carney syndrome-induced cardiac myxoma combined with dilated cardiomyopathy: a case report

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Carney syndrome is an uncommon autosomal disorder closely linked to mutations in the PRKAR1A gene. Skin lesions are the most pronounced feature of Carney syndrome, affecting over 80% of individuals with this condition.

Genetics of cardiomyopathies: dilated cardiomyopathy

, 2018
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a complex disorder with genetic factors being responsible for up to 35% of all cases. With the knowledge about the different disease genes and methods for comprehensive genotyping, genetic testing of patients with dilated ...

Asymptomatic Giant Right Ventricular Myxoma in an Adolescent: A Rare Case Report With Favorable Surgical Outcome

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
We report a 13‐year‐old female with a giant right ventricular myxoma extending to the pulmonary trunk. The tumor was diagnosed by multimodal imaging and completely resected, with favorable short‐term outcomes. ABSTRACT Right ventricular (RV) myxomas account for < 5% of cardiac myxomas and are often asymptomatic, easily overlooked.

Association Between HIV Infection Duration and Left Ventricular Concentric Remodeling and Myocardial Fibrosis: A Cross‐Sectional Study Using Cardiac MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Antiretroviral therapy has transformed HIV into a chronic condition, yet cardiac injury remains a major issue. Purpose To assess the ability of cardiac MR imaging markers to predict cardiac injury and disease progression in HIV‐infected individuals. Study Type Prospective.

Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: Prognostic Value of Electroanatomic Voltage Mapping [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Endocardial voltage mapping (EVM) identifies low-voltage right ventricular (RV) areas, which may represent the electroanatomic scar substrate of life-threatening tachyarrhythmias.
