Successful propranolol therapy for infantile hepatic hemangioma with cardiac failure

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile hepatic hemangioma (IHH) can cause severe complications such as high‐output cardiac failure and growth faltering, requiring prompt diagnosis and intervention. In the absence of standardized treatment guidelines, propranolol has emerged as an effective and well‐tolerated therapy.

5D Flow MRI Reveals Respiration‐Driven Changes in Blood Flow Energetics in Congenital Heart Disease

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Hemodynamic monitoring is essential for patients with right‐sided congenital heart disease (CHD). Respiration may have an increased impact on pulmonary flow in these patients that cannot be assessed by standard tools including 4D flow MRI. This study uses 5D flow MRI to assess respiratory‐cycle variations in flow energetics in patients

Addressing Key Limitations of Diastolic Function Assessment in Mouse Echocardiography by Enabling Robust Retrospective Analysis From a Standard Imaging View. [PDF]

Acta Physiol (Oxf)
ABSTRACT Aim Echocardiographic assessment of diastolic function in mice remains challenging because parameters translated from clinical practice are constrained by murine physiology. In particular, parameters derived from early (E) and late (A) transmitral filling velocities are frequently compromised by wave fusion at higher heart rates.

Middle Cerebral Artery Doppler and Cerebroplacental Ratio Predict Adverse Neurological Outcomes in Fetal Growth Restriction

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the efficacy of middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler ultrasonography in predicting neurological and respiratory outcomes in fetuses with fetal growth restriction (FGR) and to establish a correlation between MCA Doppler and head circumference (HC). Method Retrospective cohort study examining singleton pregnancies affected by

Cardiac resynchronization therapy and pulmonary artery banding in advanced heart failure infants with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
The combination of cardiac resynchronization therapy and pulmonary artery banding was associated with substantial improvement in advanced heart failure infants with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block. Most patients exhibited marked improvement in clinical status and ventricular function, along with a reduction in QRS ...

How to facilitate ultrasound examination of the fetal heart: the 5‐4‐3‐2‐1 method

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a new standardized, systematic method of fetal cardiac screening, the step‐by‐step ‘5‐4‐3‐2‐1’ method. This method is based on understanding the cardiac structures through a process of navigating between the different recommended views during an abdominothoracic sweep, following a user‐friendly checklist to identify the main ...
