ABSTRACT Background Infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) remains a significant concern. Although there are overall good short‐term and long‐term hemodynamic outcomes, limited data exist comparing postimplantation echocardiographic findings leading to IE.

ABSTRACT The patent foramen ovale (PFO), present in 25% of the population, can cause paradoxical embolism and stroke. Transcatheter PFO closure is the gold standard for recurrent embolism with significant inter‐atrial shunting, with recent trials confirming its superiority in reducing ischemic stroke recurrence over medical therapy.

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

Hallmarks of Neuroblastoma—Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Therapeutic Interventions
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor in childhood, continues to challenge clinicians and researchers because of its heterogeneous nature and complex pathophysiology. Recent breakthroughs in molecular profiling revealed intricate genetic alterations driving tumor progression, necessitating an updated perspective on the ...

Azathioprine is used to treat several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, its use is limited by serious adverse events, including acute pancreatitis. Prior studies have found an association between the HLA region and thiopurine‐induced acute pancreatitis (TIAP); however, in clinical practice, many patients with pancreatitis do not meet this ...
