A Primary Neuroendocrine Tumor Mimicking a Thrombus in the Left Atrial Appendage

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2022
Most cardiac tumors are metastases, and primary cardiac tumors are rare; even among primary cardiac tumors, primary cardiac neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are extremely rare.

Evaluation of the ATRIA and CHA2DS2-VASc Scores and Their Performance on Predicting Mortality in Patients with Acute Pulmonary Embolism

open access: yesHaseki Tıp Bülteni, 2022
Aim:Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a condition caused by thrombosis and is a common cause of death. Although there are studies of PE with CHA2DS2-VASc (C: congestive heart failure or left ventricular systolic dysfunction, H: hypertension, A: age of ≥75 years,

Fast growth rate of a right atrial myxoma [PDF]

open access: yesEinstein (São Paulo), 2022
Primary cardiac tumors are rare, with an incidence between 0.0017 and 0.19%, and are asymptomatic in up to 72% of cases. Approximately 75% of tumors are benign, and nearly 50% of these are myxomas.

Multi-chamber cardioids unravel human heart development and cardiac defects

open access: yesCell, 2022
The number one cause of human fetal death are defects in heart development. Because the human embryonic heart is inaccessible, and the impacts of mutations, drugs, and environmental factors on the specialized functions of different heart compartments are

The Role of Left Atrial Strain in Detecting Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction: Comparison between the 2009 and 2016 Recommendations

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2021
Background: The frequency of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is overestimated by earlier recommendations. We compared the 2009 and 2016 guidelines regarding the detection of DD and explored the potential of adding left atrial (LA) strain to ...

Numerical simulation of electrocardiograms for full cardiac cycles in healthy and pathological conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This work is dedicated to the simulation of full cycles of the electrical activity of the heart and the corresponding body surface potential. The model is based on a realistic torso and heart anatomy, including ventricles and atria.

Systematic Analysis of Gene Expression Differences between Left and Right Atria in Different Mouse Strains and in Human Atrial Tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Normal development of the atria requires left-right differentiation during embryonic development. Reduced expression of Pitx2c (paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2, isoform c), a key regulator of left-right asymmetry, has recently ...
