Patent Foramen Ovale: Story Closed? [PDF]

Journal of Stroke, 2019
The optimal treatment strategy for secondary prevention in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been a matter of controversy for decades. After three randomized trials failed to show a benefit of closure with an excess of complications in the interventional arm, two large recent trials suggest a benefit with regard of ...

Diagnostic Yield of Post‐Mortem Fetal Micro‐CT for Thoracic Abnormalities

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to identify the imaging findings specifically for thoracic anomalies in 1200 Micro‐CT cases, independent of whether the abnormality contributed to the main diagnosis or cause of death. Method We analyzed 1200 Micro‐CT scans in an unselected, consecutive cohort between 2017 and 2024 to identify thoracic anomalies ...

Assessment of Double Outlet Left Ventricle in Pediatrics Using Transthoracic Echocardiography and Computed Tomographic Angiography

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
The clinical manifestation of DOLV was atypical. TTE has a relatively high diagnostic accuracy for DOLV in pediatric, which is very valuable for its early detection. ABSTRACT Double outlet left ventricle (DOLV) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which both great arteries originate entirely or predominantly from the morphologic left ventricle.

Diagnosis of Patent Foramen Ovale

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2010
We read with great interest the improved echocardiographic diagnostic protocol for patent foramen ovale (PFO) by Rana et al. ([1][1]). We wish to highlight some relevant issues. Demonstrating the presence of PFO does not establish its etiopathogenic role in systemic embolization.

CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion as a founder mutation in Chinese patients with dystroglycanopathy

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Analysis of sixteen Chinese dystroglycanopathy patients reveals a founder mutation (CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion) in 25% of cases and expands the phenotypic spectrum from severe muscle‐eye‐brain disease to limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy. ABSTRACT Importance Dystroglycanopathies (DGPs) are a group of muscular dystrophies with abnormal glycosylation of ...

Obstetric outcome in women with congenital heart disease: A nationwide cohort in Sweden

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In this large national case–control study in women with congenital heart disease, we showed an increased likelihood of giving birth prematurely, by cesarean section, and having a small‐for‐gestational‐age neonate compared to matched controls. Abstract Introduction Survival and healthcare for patients with congenital heart disease have improved, and the

Human hypoxia models in aerospace medicine: Potential applications for human pharmacological research

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aerospace medicine required controlled terrestrial models to investigate influences of altered atmosphere conditions, such as hypoxia, on human health and performance. These models could potentially be expanded to encompass disease conditions or treatment targets regulated through hypoxia or hypercapnia.
