Periodontitis and its association with left ventricular geometry and function: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the cross‐sectional association between periodontal status and left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, an early and prognostically relevant marker of cardiovascular disease. Methods Data were drawn from two population‐based cohorts in the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP): SHIP‐START‐2 (N = 2333) and ...

Cardiovascular and Hemodynamic Adaptations in Selective Fetal Growth Restriction: A Cohort Study of Monochorionic Twins

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In monochorionic diamniotic twins with selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR), the Gratacós type is defined by one vessel in one fetus. We asked how much cerebral, venous and myocardial divergence between co‐twins it captures. Method Single‐center combined retrospective–prospective cohort; one diagnostic examination per pregnancy.
