Morphological and genetic causes of fetal cardiomyopathies
Fetal cardiomyopathies are rare and could led to in utero fetal death or termination of pregnancy. Morphological analysis of 16 cases allowed to described their characteristics. Genetic analysis on a panel of cardiomyopathy genes has attested of a genetic origin of these cases and also highlighted a particular pattern (high rate of de novo mutation ...

Abstract Objectives We sought to explore a novel left atrial appendage (LAA) strain parameter which could represent the cumulative adverse impact of chronic Atrial fibrillation (AF) on the LAA function, and the relationship between the LAA strain parameter and thrombosis risk in patients with non‐valvular AF.

Fetal Arrhythmia Diagnosis and Pharmacologic Management
Abstract One of the most successful achievements of fetal intervention is the pharmacologic management of fetal arrhythmias. This management usually takes place during the second or third trimester. While most arrhythmias in the fetus are benign, both tachy‐ and bradyarrhythmias can lead to fetal hydrops or cardiac dysfunction and require treatment ...

Frequent premature ventricular complexes as unique electrocardiographic finding in left ventricular non‐compaction cardiomyopathy are rare. Thus, physicians must always pay attention to this “benign” arrythmia in order to allow a proper diagnosis. Abstract Left ventricular non‐compaction (LVNC) cardiomyopathy is an uncommon unclassified or genetic ...

Nebulette knockout mice have normal cardiac function, but show Z-line widening and up-regulation of cardiac stress markers [PDF]
Aims: Nebulette is a 109 kDa modular protein localized in the sarcomeric Z-line of the heart. In vitro studies have suggested a role of nebulette in stabilizing the thin filament, and missense mutations in the nebulette gene were recently shown to be ...

ABSTRACT ObjectivesTo review our experience with fetal aortic valvuloplasty (FAV) in fetuses with critical aortic stenosis (CAS) and evolving hypoplastic left heart syndrome (eHLHS), including short‐ and medium‐term postnatal outcome, and to refine selection criteria for FAV by identifying preprocedural predictors of biventricular (BV) outcome ...

Results of Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Children Affected by Dilated Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the clinical value of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), in children affected by dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 15 patients (8 ± 6 years, 6 males) with diagnosis of DCM ...
