Patent Foramen Ovale and Stroke

Circulation Journal, 2016
A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is common and found in nearly 25% of healthy individuals. The majority of patients with PFO remain asymptomatic and they are not at increased risk for developing a stroke. The presence of PFO, however, has been found to be higher in patients with cryptogenic stroke, suggesting there may be a subset of patients with PFO who ...

Gas exchange and pulmonary stress variations during SCUBA and breath‐hold diving in open seawater

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Healthy, trained divers were studied before, during and after diving in open seawater with different techniques. SCUBA divers (diving to 15 or 40 m with air; cycling at depth) and breath‐hold divers (BHDs; sled‐assisted dives to 15, 25 or 40 m) underwent underwater and surface arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling.

A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1004-1011, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...

Patent Foramen Ovale and Hypoxemia

Cardiology in Review, 2019
Patent foramen ovale (PFO), an embryonic remnant of the fetal circulation, is present in 20–25% of adults. Although recent observational studies and clinical trials have established the link between PFO-mediated right-to-left shunting with cryptogenic stroke and migraine with aura, the role of a PFO in exacerbating hypoxemic medical conditions (ie ...

Expanding the Genotype–Phenotype Correlation of Marden–Walker Syndrome due to PIEZO2 Gene Variants: A Case Report From Brazil

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1156-1161, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Marden–Walker syndrome (MWS; OMIM 248700) is an extremely rare congenital disorder characterized by multiple joint contractures, craniofacial dysmorphism, neurological abnormalities, and multisystem involvement. Although historically diagnosed on clinical grounds, only a few cases have been molecularly confirmed.
