Correlation between patent foramen ovale, cerebral "lesions" and neuropsychometric testing in experienced sports divers: does diving damage the brain? [PDF]

, 2016
SCUBA diving exposes divers to decompression sickness (DCS). There has been considerable debate whether divers with a Patent Foramen Ovale of the heart have a higher risk of DCS because of the possible right-to-left shunt of venous decompression bubbles ...

Intracranial electroencephalographic approaches in the intensive care unit: Safety, feasibility, and coverage

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Nonconvulsive epileptic activity is common after acute brain injury and contributes to neuronal injury and poor outcomes. Although intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) improves detection compared with surface EEG (suEEG), it currently relies on focal recordings of epileptic dynamics.

Mono‐dimensional, two‐dimensional and Doppler echocardiographic measurements in healthy Standardbred neonatal foals in the first 5 days of life

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bodyweight, age and breed influence the echocardiographic assessment of foals. There are no echocardiographic studies in Standardbred neonatal foals. Objectives To describe echocardiographic values for selected variables, evaluate intra‐ and inter‐observer variability and assess cardiac changes in the first 5 days of life in healthy

Pregnancy Outcomes and Postnatal Health From Transferred Mosaic Embryos Following Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This illustration synthesizes the methods and conclusion of this study, demonstrating that the transfer of mosaic embryos following reimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy does not increase the risk to postnatal health. ABSTRACT Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has increased the detection of mosaic embryos during preimplantation genetic testing ...

Percutaneous Closure of Patent Foramen Ovale in a Patient With Incomplete Cor Triatriatum Sinister: A Case Report

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
We present the case of a 55‐year‐old male who experienced a cryptogenic ischemic stroke, likely due to a patent foramen ovale (PFO) in the setting of an incomplete cor triatriatum sinister (CTS) and a 30 mm GORE Cardioform Septal Occluder was successfully implanted.
