We identified a recurrent heterozygous MAX c.179G>A:p.Arg60Gln variant in two unrelated females affected with the emerging phenotypes of MAX‐associated polydactyly‐macrocephaly syndrome. We propose that genitourinary abnormalities, including Mayer–Rokitanski–Kuster–Hauser syndrome in one individual, are an expansion of the known phenotypes associated ...

Echocardiography combined with cardiopulmonary exercise testing for the prediction of outcome in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of exercise intolerance and outcome in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). The aim of the study was to evaluate the incremental prognostic value of echocardiography of the

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of
