Patent Foramen Ovale and Hypoxemia

open access: yesCardiology 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 ...

Momentarily stuck in the foramen ovale [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Echocardiography, 2007
An 80-year-old woman was admitted for a diagnosis of severe pulmonary embolism. A large serpentine thrombus stuck in a patent foramen ovale (PFO) completely resolved without the patient experiencing any manifestation. The right renal artery was the final destination.

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

35 Individuals With HUWE1‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder and Suggested Clinical Evaluations

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT HUWE1 (HECT, UBA, and WWE Domain Containing E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase1, OMIM 300697), located at Xp11.22, encodes a ubiquitin ligase that is highly conserved across species. Genetic variants in HUWE1 described in multiple independent studies cause X‐linked intellectual disability, including in the patients identified by Juberg, Marsidi, and ...
